Disappointed with Badger Graphic Service

Badger (and Jeff Taugner in particular) has been simply OUTSTANDING in every
transaction I've had with them over the years, and I've bought a Canham LF
system, Fuji lenses, and a lot of film from them. They've expedited orders,
shipped immediately and been a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend
them.

Adorama, on the other hand, felt like dealing with a bunch of sleazy used
car dealers from Baghdad..

would
be shipped the following week via UPS. I waited til the day and then

and asked for a tracking number, only to have my email ignored. The
camera
arrived two days later (two states away).

Maybe I've been pampered by Adorama and B&H, etc., but I expect more, and
my
money will command more, or I'll take it somewhere else.

That's to bad,I have found Badger to be a very reliable supplier.

I live about a 50 minute drive from Badger Graphic Sales. They are a
very small, family outfit. Jeff is the person with the most knowledge
about camera equipment. It's possible that he was out for a few days.
I'd send him a short email about your experience, and see what he says.
I've always had terrific service from them.
