Originally posted by DogLover Gotta believe this is an isolated incident. B&H is known for some of the best customer service in the business. Yes, it sounds like someone screwed up, but, unfortunately, it happens. I am positive that if you contact them about this, they will be glad to make it right. And I assure you, B&H ain't hurtin'.
Thank you. I replied to this

Quote: Has anyone noticed that Adorama's advertising pages are near what B&H's are? Remember just a few years ago B&H ad pages dwarfed everyone else? There is a reason.
Indeed there is and it's the same reason our flyer, which used to be monthly, is now printed and mailed twice a year. Traditional print ads in magazines like PopPhoto, Shutterbug, etc., don't have nearly the drawing power they once did so our managers decided it was a wiser use of our resources to concentrate or marketing and advertising elsewhere. Adorama makes their own decisions about this. The March 2011 PopPhoto is 112 pages. Neither Adorama nor B&H has a dozen ad pages.

Fortunately we don't NEED a manufacturer to tell us how to treat our customers. We're human and imperfect (who here is otherwise?) but we know how to treat customers -- courtesy and respect and appreciation being among the principal priorities.
