BUYER BEWARE !! These guys are not honest. Bait and switch tactics seem to be their M.O. I wish I had read the reviews before I got the hard sell phone call from their sales dept. I ordered what I believed was in stock items but of course got screwed by trusting them. They hide behind their ridiculous return policies and hock poor products at higher prices. DO NOT SHOP HERE !

I ordered a Canon OEM battery and Charger. Got a call from Vendor that they were not available due to shortage at Canon. Asked to accept substitute, which I did because they told me it would be weeks before OEM became availabale. After saying ok I cheked with Canon and told no shortage. Checked with other vendors and found OEM in stock. Called NWV back to cancel order.. Told order was packed and I should request an RMA once it was received. Sales person suggested trying out the substitute. (I didn't) Requested an RMA and reply was no return of blister pack item. (Even though unopened) Now I'm left with the substitute I didn't want. NWV has been dishonest and unfair in this transaction. Basically a bait and switch operation. Overall Rating

Nwv direct is a very nice Company to deal with. I called to find out if a product was in stock in their store. A very nice gentleman helped me, his name was Mark. He answered yes, and I took a drive over there. He greeted me at the door and politely had me sit at his desk and offered me a drink of water while he went to get the product I wanted. he returned in less than 5 minutes with exactly the item I was looking at on their site. He created an invoice took my money and with a smile asked me if I had any questions. He gave me his personal email address and said I could email him anytime with any questions. The whole experience was very smooth and I felt like they were really professional. I have experience with online stores in the Ny area (bad experiences) but these guys will always get my business. Thanks Mark and your whole team. Overall Rating

DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY. Unreliable. I ordered the Sony HVL-F1000 on April 24th. the price was $69.00. Next day they return the money by stating "item is backordered, our apologies". But if you visit their site. they are still selling it. and still have following line on the item page "Stock: Usually Ships In 1-2 Business Days". DO NOT WASTE YOU TIME BUYING ON THIS SITE.

This store is exceptional in many ways. They had the lowest prices on some sony accessories I was looking for. The ordering process went smooth. The products arrived the following day and I did not pay for extra shipping. The items were exactly what I ordered and they were new and sealed in their packaging. Thank you and I will always recommend you in the future. Overall Rating

In this day and age, if you cannot track your inventory availability on an order by order basis you should not be in business! My first order from NWVD was completely marred by the fact that the item was not in stock, but it was identified as in stock on their website. I will give them some kudos for the quick response in telling me the item I ordered was not in stock and would not be in for 2 -3 weeks and a quick cancelling of my order. However, the website should always display the correct availabilty and that would have modified my order from the start, as I needed a quick turn around on the shipment. Fool me once! shame on you. I will not have a shame on me by trying a second time. Overall Rating

I would never use this merchant again. This is a very shady operation. I tried to buy a battery charger from them and the next day called me saying they were back oredered on that product, but could sell me a much nicer model for more money, but much cheaper than it was worth. The product they told me about was listed on there web page for $99 dollars and they try to say it is reduced from $129. But with some simple research you find that this product is a piece of junk and is selling on all other sites for about $16 dollars. Do NOT believe anything they guys say. They are con artists and I don't believe this is just a bait and switch, but sounds more like straight up fraud. They will rip you off at any chance they get. I would never advise anyone to use these guys. Don't believe any of the good reviews for this company, they are all just spam. Overall Rating

Warning!!! Warning!!! Do not buy from these crooks! I had the worst time confirming my order and waiting for the video camera to arrive. This was the worst experience I ever had. I eventually recieved the camera and tried to complain that it appeared that the box of this so called new camera was opened. They refused to listen and ignored my complaint. I'm now unable to register the camera with Sony and have no warranty because the serial number was removed from both the box and the camera. Overall Rating

Don't buy anything from them. I'm constantly buying digital cameras but I've had the worst experience with them. Amators !!!!! They'll tell you they have the camera -couple days later they'll send you an email saying that order was not confirmed - they never even called to confirm it "Dear Sir Thank you for your order. Unfortunately at this time we will be cancelling this order. We have tried numerous times to get in touch with you to verify your order.."PAY FEW EXTRA $ AND BUY SOMEWHERE ELSE Overall Rating

My next camera (Minolta DiMage A1) will be on order as soon as they are available! Give 'em a try! I wasn't sorry that I did!!! Overall Rating

First order was never confirmed. Called in, told me to order again. When they confirmed that one, tried to upsell me with a kit. When I said I didn't want it, they said they were "out of stock." These guys are crooks. Overall Rating

WORST experience ever! I placed order the day before Pricegrabber dropped them. After immediate canc. of order (for misrepresentation of "good deal" I fell for on 'confirmation call') they repeatedly refused to tell me when credit card cancellation was done (my bank hadn't rec'd it yet). When I repeated my request the charmer hung up on me! Next I receive FedEx notice of shipment. If they pop up elsewere: Beware! I didn't read the reviews-last time for that mistake. Big Q: 4+ rating????? Overall Rating

After having a long phone conversation to confirm my order and them doing a hard sell on a VERY EXPENSIVE extended warantee (which I declined), I received this email message: Thank you for placing your order with Newworldvideodirect. We are sorry to inform you the product you ordered is unavailable at this time. Your credit card charge has been voided. We apologize for the inconvenience, your order has been cancelled.

I placed an order for a digital camera 2 weeks ago, within a couple of hours, I got the hard sell phone call trying to sell me $70 worth of additional items for $200. I declined...now, I check with them to find out that my order was never "confirmed" and has not been entered...funny, eh? These guys are not in the Customer Service business! Overall Rating

I received a call to confirm order the next day. When I didn't want to buy additional accessories, they said item was no longer in stock, and would take 2.5 weeks. Coincidence? You decide. I cancelled my order, CC was not charged. Overall Rating
