Deals All YearReviews of dealsallyear.com

Steve and Josh provided excellent customer service. I made a mistake on my initial order, and they called me and got it fixed immediately so it would still arrive on time for our honeymoon which was a huge relief! Not to mention the price was better than eBay, amazon, Best Buy, B&H! I will definitely be using dealsallyear again! What a great company!

I'm a professional fashion- and beauty-photographer, based in NYC. Recently I bought a new Nikon D810 and a 50mm Sigma Art-lens from Deals All Year. It was overdue that I finally decided to buy a new camera and a fix-prime lens. I usually always bought my photo-gear at B&H. Unfortunatley I didn't really have the full amount of money available to buy a new Nikon D810 in combination with the 50mm sigma art-prime-lens at B+H. It would have been about $4200 (included tax). So I was considering buying a used body on eBAy. Then I saw that used bodies are pretty much the same price than brand-new bodies. I saw that the D810 was almost 30% cheaper than at B+H. I was surprised and didn't really understand how Nikon cameras can be so much cheaper than at B+H or Adorama. I just wasn't aware of 'grey-market' cameras in the US. First I was skeptic buying a new and expensive camera online since I use it as a professional-photographer. But I did a lot of research about it. Many photography friends warned me about buying grey-market, even they didn't really know what it means. So I did my own research. The amount of money I could save was too tempting :) The main-reason that held me off buying online was the warranty and that you are not able to bring Nikon bodies to most repair places in the US, for example: Nippon NYC. But I learned that there is other established and professional repair places in NYC that take import cameras without a US-product-serial-number. Compare to all the other grey-market sites on ebay, Deals All Year was the only place that had an actual physical-photo store and a telephone-number. So I called Deals All Year and talked to Steve. He was very helpful and very competent . He took my last doubts about buying my camera online. He offered me such a good deal for the body and the lens that I couldn't resist. The price for body+lens was just $2800 !. In comparison to B+H $4200!!!!! So I saved $1400!! What makes a big difference in the final price is that Deals All Year doesn't charge taxes compare to all the other listed ebay-stores(-links). TO be save and feel comfortable with my new expensive camera I added a 5 year warranty for my camera and 7 years for my lens. Both was $250! Both, the product itself , but also the insurance was so much cheaper than B+H, Adorama or Amazon. Finally I decided to buy my camera with Steve. The package arrived on time. Both products were in brand-new untouched condition. It even came with a manual! I tested the camera and the lens for a few days. Everything worked. I'm super happy that I found Deals All Year and I saved so much money for exactly the same product. And because of the warranty package I feel very safe.. Deals All Year works with an experienced repair-store that been around and established for decades. I was so thrilled buying from Deals ALL Year that I just ordered my second Sigma-Art lens (85mm) Since I got my new camera, I recommend all my professional photography friends and colleagues to safe money and buy their gear in the future at Deals All Year. Just ask for Steve. He's the man!

Truly amazing customer service. Answer the phone right away, call back when needed and keep their promises 100%. Great working with you guys and appreciate you business a lot. Denis

My camera was shipped internationally which can be problematic but everything showed up faster than expected and in excellent condition. Not only was the camera heavily discounted compared to other retailers but their service is impeccable.

I'm impressed with the speed in which I got my orders, with good protection.

Updated review: Bought a Canon 7D Mark II from Steve and the camera packaging had been tampered with... however it appears the packaging was opened simply to add the US cord, needed to be able to use the 'international version' of this camera's recharger. There was also an initial battery issue... Steve quickly rectified that situation. Very good customer service. I left a message for Steve (he gave me his direct line when he was selling me the product); he was quick to respond to my e-mails then, and he was very quick to address/rectify the issues after the camera arrived. Again, very good customer service. because the packaging was opened and resealed before I received it, I have an appointment to make sure the camera is new (as it appears so) and assuming it gets the nod as new, this will close an excellent transaction.

Steven did a good job in explaining product and help with the best deal possible would definitely use again and refer orhers

I was leery about purchasing from this place at first because the prices indicate that its grey market, but I did a lot of research first and reviews from a lot of different places seemed to be very positive about Dealsallyear.com. I spoke with Kevin (I think he's the owner) over the phone and felt good after our conversation. I placed the order and felt even more nervous after the email I sent requesting a tracking number was bounced back. However, then I received an email from UPS confirming I was going to be receiving my order (2 days after it was placed online!) and was happy last night to receive a new Canon 5D Mark III as expected. It's grey market, so you can't register it through Canon and get the same benefits that way, but in all honesty, I've seldom if ever had issues with a product until after the warranty has expired anyway, so that doesn't seem like a problem to me. You can buy this company's products off from their website or off from eBay, but I found that it was cheaper off from their website. If you're concerned, pay through PayPal to ensure if there's any issues with the product, you will be protected. Overall, this was a good experience...the product is genuine Canon, as I expected, and the order was processed and shipped out quickly. I'm excited to start shooting with my new camera!
