So, does EVS normally price match?
I've got a shoot in a month, and I'm ready to buy now so we've got time to run some tests with the camera. But I can't quite figure out where the best place to buy from is. EVS obviously has a great rep here, but ProFeel has a great price (provided it's a real price for a real US market camera, but I've not read anything bad about them in that regard yet...).
(First post here, by the way. I love this forum. You guys were instrumental in my decision between this camera and the GRHD1.)
Sorry I meant to say that I live in California. I guess willoughbys has the best price of the authorized dealers outside of California. 3350 including shipping. Couldn't find a better price.
Thanks, Matthew. Please feel free to call me personally at 800-238-8480, or email me at rush@evsonline.com. I price match all accessories with B&H for DVXusers, and most of the times, I can beat them by 2-5%.
I've got to say, I have heard nothing but good things about EVS. So when my boss needed to order tapes for me I told them to go to EVS. However, when they ordered them they litterally sat on sombodies desk for over a week. When they called to inquire they were very gracious and sent them right away. So we were just about to give them another chance and order another round of tapes, when they received there credit card bill and noticed they had been charged over 300 dollars for 10 tapes. I hope this is just a fluke, cuz I would like to continue buying tapes from EVS, but I am now forced to send my boss over to tape resources. :'(
May I chime in as a new member to this forum but a PERMANENT customer of EVS, others talk the talk but these dudes walk the walk. Steve Madrigal has been a tremendous help in my purchase of a second 100A as well as accessories. Having had a horrible experience on e-bay, I will not shop anywhere else.
I love going into EVS !! It's like a candy store. I can always seem to find another toy to add to my camera. But what is really important is the wayI've been treated and the help I have received from my man, Ramses. He's great to deal with and very helpful. Thanks for looking out for me and making things right.
Let me just say that I am going to continue to shop at EVS, I was just disapointed that I recomended them and things didn't work out. I am sure that it won't happen again after all nobody is perfect.
In response to Richard: Thank you sir, I will relay your accolades to Ramsey. I am blessed with wonderful coworkers like Ramsey and Malachi, who have gone beyond the call of duty on many occasions to support their customers and each other.
In response to Connelly: I would like to personally apologize for what happened to your boss . Would you please send me his info: Account name, date when this event occurred, and the rep he dealt with, so that I can look into it. I have already called around to all of our rep's desks and no one has any recollection of such an event. I would like to personally call your boss and offer him some discounts on his next purchase, and send him a gift. The last thing I want to do is lose a customer to a circumstantial billing mistake.
