Wow, I never dealt with Crutchfield, but I have regularly purchased from the others for many years, as have hundreds of others on this forum, and the number of reported issues is a very tiny fraction compared to all the happy customers. And almost all the issues that do occur are resolved to the customers satisfaction. B&H, KEH, and Adorama are consistently the most respected online photography retailers in the country. The fact that you have had such significant problems with all of them suggests that there are other issues at play.

A few weeks ago I posted that I had ordered a new Nikon D7200 for a very, very low price from New York. Thanks to those who responded about it being a grey import, I was able to cancel the order before it shipped. So with that in mind, this evening I ordered the same camera from B&H, who is a registered Nikon importer from what I understand. Granted, the price was a bit more, but at least I have the satisfaction of a warranty if needed. So, thank you all for the heads-up advice. My Christmas gift to me will be here in the afternoon of the 26th, or so they say.
