B&H seems to be the best bet since Newegg went down the drain. I'd always gone to them for camera gear and never had issues. I'll be going to them for electronics from now on.

Just be aware of their return policy, it’s not quite as no-questions as Amazon usually is. But it’s serviceable.

But it isn’t an unreasonable policy or anything I think. They’ve also price matched their own price for me after a week or two which seemed very customer oriented. No complaints and I’ve used them for a few years now.

They are like the anti Amazon in terms of shipping for religious reasons, given their observance of shabbos they don't ship on Saturdays at all. Good to know that their warehouse staff has a weekend day off to rest.

Yeah theyve been around for a long time for media stuff specifically, will have to check it out for electronics in general.

Pretty sure they got bought out by some Chinese company with terrible customer service

Their customer service wasn't great in the past.

There was a time when it most definitely was.
