Re: New York AG after Brooklyn Scammers

Yes they do carry USA Warranty and Grey Market but in my experience they've always been quite clear about the difference.
They were busted for false advertising and bait and switch techniques. B&H used to run large ads in newspapers with pricing in which they would advertise a camera at a great price with no mention of grey market - an unsuspecting customer would buy the product and NEVER be the wiser until there was a problem. Of course the consumer was screwed because B&H had yanked the warranty card from the merchandise.. It was no good in the US anyway..

Now don't get upset with me because you like B&H - I use them almost exclusively and I like their prices and have never been screwed by them. But there was a day when not everyone could say that..

Got a link? I remember plenty of photo supply houses that operated this way, often running large ads in the Sunday papers, but not B&H. In fact, B&H is one of the few photo supply houses that publishes and widely distributes a catalog with current prices.
