My concern “Are they manage to ship my orders on time all the way from Unite State to Malaysia????????” I tracked my order and till today they haven’t ship out my goods yet which is urgently needed before 12 April 2004. Anyone from Bhphotovideo (Currently on Holiday till 14 April) please guide me or help me on this….

Of course they are reliable. If they received your order, it's probably already been shipped.

B&H is perfectly reliable, however they do have an extensive holiday schedule around which you should always plan your purchases. It's possible that if your order hasn't shipped yet, it may not until after they return on 14 April. Always ask for the exact shipping date at the time you make your purchase if you're buying gear for a specific shoot that is not far down your calender. Hope this helps,

Bhphotovideo seen never reply my email, is there any email address that reach directly and effectively to confirm the date arriving at my door. Rather than “Order Status: Has Not Yet Been Shipped.”

I very desperate the order to be arrives on my schedule…

Andrew, according to the B&H holiday schedule (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=RootPage.jsp&A=getpage&Q=holidayschedule.jsp), it looks like they are open Monday morning April 5th until 12:45pm EDT. Be sure to account for the differences in time zones and give them a call. Let us know how it works out.

Andrew, give them a call, that is the fastest way to get it sorted. Emails can have a day or 2 delay.

I have ordered from B&H on 3 occasions (Each time, spending several hundreds of dollars). They ship quickly, and the goods do indeed arrive in the stated time. My last order was scanned for dispatch (UPS) on 8th March from New York, and arrived in New Zealand on 11th March.

That said, you might now be out of luck as they could have closed.

Cheers
Aaron

I have had a number of complicated transactions with B&H - They are absolutely trustworthy.

Andrew, I recently made a purchase with no problems from them except the wide angle adaptor from Sony had a small scratch. Nothing is going to happen until Passover passes over. Aside from mammoth holidays they are great to deal with. Good luck, Colin

There's only 2 Jewish "mammoth holidays." Passover is one of them. (If you want to include Hanukkah, that'll make 3, but that happens around Christmas time.)
