  • Nikon USA

Nikon makes some wonderful binoculars, but they have terrible support. There is no reason they should not have some common parts for their discontinued binoculars, like the Nikon SE 8x32 porro prism. A lot of people still love and use this binocular, and it is a shame that you can't even get replacement eye cups for it which are easily replaced by the user. The newer Nikon HG binoculars do not have the same view as the classic porros like the SE because they don't have the stereoscopic view.

I ordered a set of binoculars for $500, and I changed my mind and cancelled them the next day and after 10 days and multiple calls and emails I have not been able to get a refund. I filed a PayPal Dispute and I hope that helps. I would never buy anything here again.

  • McDonald's

11/7/22

Like McDonald's food once in a while, but anymore I hesitate going to this restaurant at 2520 47th St. In Greeley, CO. Because the service is so inconsistent, especially today 11/7/2022 at 4:20 PM. Several times before, I could not get waited on, or my order was incorrect, or I never got my order, but I figured today I would give them another chance. Poor decision. I went in the restaurant and I noticed immediately both computer ordering stations were down, so I couldn't use them to order like I usually do. So I went up to counter to order, and I noticed there seemed to be only two people behind the counter, and they were running around like a chicken with their heads cut off trying to fill orders from the drive-thru. Both of them looked lost, and they didn't know what to do. After waiting 15 minutes at the counter, I decided just to leave and go to Five Guys because I know I would get waited on there. When I walked through the door at Five Guys, I was IMMEDIATELY greeted by someone and my order was taken. I don't think a good manager would ever let the restaurant be that understaffed. I feel the manager and the regional manager should be fired. I am surprised the franchise owner of this McDonald's allows their restaurant to be operating this poorly. The poor management of this restaurant reflects poorly on the entire McDonald's Corporation. Also, many times that I go into this McDonald's it is filthy and messy, and frankly I don't even want to eat there. I guess I will have to start going to a different McDonald's even though I have to drive further.

  • T-Mobile

9/30/22

I had next to no phone service for two months because there were two cell towers in the Greeley, CO. Area as confirmed by the T-Mobile store at Centerplace in Greeley, and they said T-Mobile would give me a partial refund, but they wouldn't. I switched to Verizon because I could not get any cell service with T-Mobile in my area. T-Mobile is dishonest and crooked, and I would never use them again for my cell phone service. Verizon's service is excellent, and they have much better coverage than T-Mobile, especially in rural areas. T-Mobile lied to me several times, and they are a dishonest and very poor cell phone service.

Be careful with B&H because if your return rate is too high they will refuse to let you return or exchange anything even if it is defective. I returned quite a few binoculars, but the reason was a lot of them were returns from other customers. You can tell when the box has been opened and the strap is just laying loose in the box. Recently I purchased a $2200 Vespera Telescope at B&H because they had the best price on it and with the Payboo Card I didn't have to pay any tax. I planned on keeping it, and I figured if it was defective they would at least EXCHANGE it. Well unfortunately the scope turned out to be defective, so I tried to exchange it, and then I get this email that because my return rate was high in the past they wouldn't even EXCHANGE the scope. I have returned a lot of stuff at other websites, and I have NEVER been banned from returning items. I have filed a dispute with the BBB just because I think what they are doing is unfair. After all, they could just return the scope to the seller and get reimbursed. If I had paid with PayPal, I am sure I could have won a dispute with B&H because it is not right to have to pay for a defective item and if the seller doesn't stand behind their products, I am sorry, but I don't respect them very much. This practice of refusing to allow customers to return items will come back to bite them because if they screw too many customers in this way it will get around the internet and people will think twice before they buy at B&H. Be forewarned when buying at B&H make sure you are not going to return the item and hope that it is not defective. If you go through these reviews of B&H you will see several one-star reviews where the customer complains about receiving used and returned items and many cases where B&H was reluctant to allow returns and exchanges. B&H likes to sell, but they don't like to take returns, regardless of what their BS Return Policy says!

Thank you for your order and this feedback. We regret your dissatisfaction. You referred to returning as "return privileges," and that's exactly what it is -- a privilege. We make every effort to extend reasonable accommodations to a customer who has a valid reason for returning a product purchased here, but. No retailer can be expected to extend that privilege to a customer who abuses it. You wrote, "I returned quite a few binoculars," by which you have convicted yourself of treating our return privilege cavalierly. Retailers are careful to minimize the need of a customer to make a return because when a customer does make a return, for any reason, it costs the retailer money. When a customer's return rate is excessive, the retailer has an obligation to exercise some control over the customer's lavish habit of returning the majority of purchased items. We regret that became necessary. -- Henry Posner / B&H Photo-Video

I bought an $800 Thermal Binocular here and returned it, and I am having to file a PayPal dispute to get my money back. I will never buy anything here again!

Avoid them at all costs!

  • Instacart

6/9/21

I have tried Instacart several times and every time I have to babysit the shopper through every step of the purchases, and then I still get incorrect items that I found it is faster to just go get the stuff myself. The shoppers don't seem to understand what Don't Replace means. They always try to replace what you ordered if the store is out of stock with the item you ordered with something else. They can't get it that you want what you want. I recently tried it again tonight because it was raining, and I didn't want to go out. After messing around for 1/2 hour with the shopper, I gave up and told him to cancel the order and I would go to the store myself. I went to the store in 10 minutes and I got everything I wanted. The trouble with Instacart is their shoppers don't know how to shop. I cancelled my Instacart membership today. No more wasting time.

Surprisingly good and healthy meals. I needed a change from fast food and eating out so I tried Freshly and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious their meals are. Very convenient to have them delivered and they are very easy to prepare. I have yet to choose a meal I didn't like and I have tried almost all of them. My wife likes the Turkey Meatloaf so I get some of those for her. These are really a good idea especially during this COVID 19 outbreak when you want to socially distance yourself from people and going to the grocery store.

I ordered a pair of binoculars with 2nd day shipping and it took 7 days to get them. I call that SLOW shipping. Their customer service is very poor in my experience. They are my last choice when ordering something but in this case they were the only ones that had this item in stock. Never again will I buy anything from them again.
