Their prices are less, but camera prices are standardized for most of the industry.
When someone offers less than this standardized price, you should ask yourself why.
If I were you I would avoid Abe's at all costs, you have been warned!
If you still want to go with Abe's, I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale cheap, private message me for the lowest price, I will undercut everyone else's price.

Order something from Abe's. Tell us all how it goes. Act. Prove to the entire UHH community how smart and savvy a shopper you are. Alternatively, stop yammering dumb questions.

Haven't had any personal experience with them, but have heard some horror stories.

I have close friends that got the bait and switch from Abe's. They were assured that what gear they were buying came with USA warranty, but got grey market gear instead that could not by registered or factory warrantied. And then Abe's refused to take it back for a full warranty, wanting a huge restocking fee..

You seem not to want to believe they are the worst of camera dealers in the USA. But it is a fact, just the reality whether or not you have ever been shafted by them personally. You cant have shopped with every dealer in the USA, LOL.

I have been a professional in this business for nearly 50 years, and I have done business with many top dealers, but I stay away from Abe's always.

UHH is here to help relate experiences and knowledge that not everyone has personally , for the education and betterment of our members.

The rest of us are done trying to convince you of the reality. Please feel free to give Abe's your money, they will gladly take your money and take you, literally. LOL

Cheers and best to you.

Again another commenter without firsthand experience, trashing a low priced store, not following the manufactured demanded prices. I have bought items from Japan and Europe---do you mean that negates any warranty which may exist for the product if sold in the USA. Actually I have never needed to call on a warranty on anything I carefully select. So-----if you don't offer anything but hear-say, keep it to yourself?-----------Yes, cheers to you also, and the best to you.----------------
