Not trying to be a smarta$$ but "search" works. This question has been discussed extensively.

Abe's operates on the Barnum Bailey principle, "there's a sucker born every second". Are you one?

Happy Shooting!

I am sure every store will have some satisfied customers. But I don’t believe the BBB has any personal stake in the success or failure of any business. Complaints to them are either resolved or not.
But generally this question comes up weekly. The outcome is always the same. So if nothing else Abe’s is consistent.
There is only Happy Shooting, why else than would we do it.

If you want the real scoop on a particular store, just read what other UHH members say. I would never consider dealing with Abe' of Maine (and they are from New Jersey, I think NOT Maine).
I live just outside of Boston and so I deal with Hunt's Photo. Real nice folks there.

Abe’s of Main was once a good outfit. Back then I bought several cameras from them. They were sold to a bait and switch, gray market, and what should be in the box is missing stuff owner. STAY AWAY. I use Adorama and B&H. If in NYC go to B&H it’s the most amazing store with extremely knowledgeable helpful people in every department.

Just be thankful that Abe's doesn't sell cars. The engine would be optional.

If saving a few dollars is what you have in mind you could end up in your dealing with them with a great surprise. That store is not a reputable dealer. Be aware of gray market.
Do not take chances, spend some more and go to Adorama, B&H, Cameta, Hunt or your local camera store. Get peace of mind and a dealer that will stand behind you if something goes wrong.

You were smart to ask. Now be even smarter and run away from them, fast.
B&H or Adorama are great companies, use them and it will save you grief, money and time. They are both among the best companies that I have ever dealt with in any arena. I’m sure there are a few others, but those two I have used for years.
