This makes me a bad person, but I just go to Newegg to search and then buy from Amazon.

Newegg leaves a bad taste in my mouth. "Pay $3 extra to have your order processed _today_!" Do they still do that?

That said, B&H is quickly becoming my favorite photo/electronics store. But you have to buy from somewhere else when they go on a 2 week vacation (or sundown Friday to sundown Saturday ;)




B&H is the best. Their search and overall UI is great, their browsing taxonomy is incredible (especially when you're looking for something in their wheelhouse; if you're shopping for, say, a very specific type of camera lens, it's effortless to narrow to exactly the choices you want), and on top of all that, they're usually price-competitive with Amazon.

Their closing on orthodox Jewish holidays takes a bit of getting used to, but I just consider it part of the brand now.


It's nice that people don't give up their heritage to make a few extra dollars.
