Terrible service

by bcmadden, November 28, 2009
Terrible service.  Ordered a printer for a good price and they let my order set for over 48 hours and then just cancelled it without notifying me either by phone or by email and they had both, as I got the order confirmation from them.  After sending them an email requesting an explanation there has been no response 48 hours later.
I did notice that they raised the price of the printer by $10 since my order, but they definitely should honor their price as stated and ordered, especially if they confirm it.

very bad!

by bstamper7, November 24, 2009
I DON'T recommend this site. I'm pretty sure I have been scammed. I ordered a nikon coolpix230  on Nov. 5th and have yet to see it.  They sent me one email after my purchase that said "order shipped!" and I have sent numerous emails since then and have not gotten any response. I would strongly discourage you from ordering anything from this site!
Hope I helped!

Questionable at this time.

by swkizer, November 12, 2009
I ordered an HP 6500 wireless printer and received the same initial two emails as everyone else,  A printer did arrive, but it was a lessor model.  I have sent an email to them and have not received a response,  If they do correct the error this will be a super deal.  The delivery was speedy and all else was well- just the wrong product.

NO!!! NO!!! NO!!! HORRIBLE COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by ranger54, November 5, 2009
PLEASE do not get sucked in by this horrible company!!! I ordered a canon pixma mx860 printer on November 1, 2009. I received an email that my order was received and that I would be notified when the printer shipped. My credit card was promptly debited for the full amount. Within hours I received an email from the company owner saying that their supplier had not shipped the printer to the company so they could not fill my order. They said that they HAD ALREADY provided a full refund to my credit card. It is November 5, 2009. Still no refund on my credit card (I called the credit card company). Digital Electronics 4 Less will not respond to my emails. HORRIBLE! STAY AWAY!!!

Shipping time was great. I got my printer the same week

by rasinhed27, October 18, 2009
Shipping time was great. I got my printer the same week that I ordered it. The box was busted during shipping and was taped up by the shipping company. But, I guess that isn't there fault. Nothing fell out and my printer wasn't damaged. I did email them about the incident anyway, and they apologized and offered me an exchange if I feel that anything was damaged. I refused since it worked fine, but am happy with the service that I recieved.

DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS COMPANY

by aveedazane, October 17, 2009
DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!   I ordered a Canon 2000 Digital camera in August , when I e-mailed them in september they told me that the order was sent to a company in new york and they were back ordered and was told I would receive the camera in 2 weeks.  when I didn't receive it, I tried calling and leaving messages to no avail and again, they answered me through e mail telling me that they the camera was back ordered and they had no idea when it would be in so they would credit my account.  I have never received a credit.  I have reported them to the BBB and they came back with the address is bogus.  I will be contacting the attorney general in Illinois tomorrow morning.  DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY.

This company is a fraud!

by lmhteach, October 12, 2009
I ordered a camera from this company in late July, 2009.  Afterwards, I checked forums about this company, and I wish I had checked ahead of time.  I received an e-mail from digital electronics 4 less, stating that my camera was not in stock and they would not charge my credit card.  Nothing else happened until I received my September credit card bill with a charge for something purchased at Dell Services.  This company used my credit card later on to purchase a camera for someone else!  I'm glad I caught it.  I should be reimbursed by Dell, but some people may not be so lucky.  Don't purchase from them!

Finally got my money back

by jrdinmn, October 9, 2009
To follow up on a recent review I wrote on this alleged merchant, my credit card has finally been credited with the purchase price for the item they never delivered (even though they said that they had shipped it).  However, I then cancelled my credit card account because I was very uncomfortable with this company having my credit card information.  Thanks to epinions for providing a forum for reporting scammer merchants.

This was the best experience that I have had

by gosoxbaby, September 29, 2009
This was the best experience that I have had from a discount online store in a while. No anoying phone calls begging me to purchase more crap for my order. I receive what I ordered in a reasonable time frame. Simple and easy the way that I like it. I am in love with my new camera. Took great pictures of my new puppy!

I finally over worked my old printer and needed to replace it asap. I found a new comparible printer on sale and estimated shipping time appeared to be alright. It took several days longer for my order to ship out so my order arived a little late. I am satisfied with the printer. But, it did arrive later than I expected.

Very unresponsive seller I had to close my cc account to feel safe.

by bear70, September 20, 2009
I ordered a printer from this seller and began to wonder when it would arrive.  No response via email or phone.  So I cancelled on line.  Then a printer similar to the one I ordered arrived, not from this seller, but from Staples.  And the price was different.  I suspected some sort of scam, looked here on epinions, and closed my VISA account.  What a hassle. 

By the way, the only check I did before buying was to look for and find an 800 number and an address.  Never again.  I'm going to insist on speaking to a person and check here first.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY IT IS A SCAM!!

by pparks7373, September 11, 2009
I ordered an IPod Touch for my son for his birthday on August 29, 2009 from Digital Electronics 4 Less.  They told us the order shipped September 1 and the transit time was 3-5 days.  We are STILL waiting for our order and it is September 11.  We suspect a scam and are contacting the BBB of Illinois.  This company claims they are a member of the BBB, but they are not.  DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY! We have tried to contact them MANY times and they do not return phone calls or emails.  They do not list a tracking number via UPS either.  We will be taking legal action.  We are completely unsatisfied with this company and want to warn others not to buy anything from them. They seem to have a legitimate website, email address, postal address and phone number, but nobody answers when you send a correspondence to them.  Their price for the IPOD was about $20 less than retail, but they do charge quite a bit for shipping.  For $10 less than retail, it has certainly NOT been worth it.  The BBB has a file of complaints against this company already.

Credit card charged without receiving camera. Cannot contact the company

by liz_p, September 10, 2009
I ordered a new SD1200 camera from this store on 8/25/09.  A few days later, I got an e-mail stating that my camera had been shipped and should be delivered in 1-2 business days.  The e-mail did not have a tracking number.  Since they "shipped" the order, they charged my credit card.  One week later, I still haven't gotten my camera.

I e-mailed the company early this week to find out where my order was, but I have not received a reply (their website says they reply within one hour).  I tried calling the company, but as other reviewers have noted, no one answers the phone, and you can only leave a voicemail message, which of course, is not returned.

Suspecting an issue with this company, I called my credit card company to dispute the charge.  Hopefully, I can get the charge removed from my card, but now I'm worried that the card and my information has been compromised, based on other reviewer's experiences with this company.  The company uses several different names" "Digital Electronics 4 Less", "City Electronics", "Electronics Depot: and "Wilson Electronics", none of which you can contact.

Phishing web site: stole money from my account!

by bloomingtor, July 25, 2009
PHISHING web site! I thought I'd bought a Canon Camera in June 2009, and it was never delivered to me. Instead I got an email saying that it was out of stock. Then yesterday someone bought a Nikon Coolpix for 185 dollars on target.com with...my credit card information! Needless to say, I never bought that Nikon product! It's not just suspicious, it's a real phishing web site. DON'T SHOP THERE!

frustrating , and a total waste of time.

by slingshot1, July 17, 2009
I ordered a digital camera from these folks and received an email the next day saying my order had shipped. 3 weeks later nothing had come, and all attempts to reach digital4less were futile. They do not respond to email, phone messages or faxes. All I wanted was a tracking #. This went on for two weeks. Finally, I went to my bank for a dispute. I got my money back from my bank- but please NEVER shop with this group EVER. They are truly a business black hole.

Total Scam - Never received product

by ss68super, July 10, 2009
This "store" is a total scam. There is no business as Digital Electronics 4 less, City Electronics, or Wilson Electronics, LTD listed on the Illinios Secretary of State Corporate Division website. The address is the UPS Store on West Van Buren in Chicago and when I contacted them, they stated their mailboxes only go up to 420 or so. The "Suite 502" does not exist. I intend upon persuing this matter to its fullest extent if a refund is not granted by my credit card company. The merchant account has to have some contact info that can be reached. Call the phone number and it goes straight to a vioce mail recording. The phone number on your credit card bill goes to the same recording. Your email will not be answered. I am out $200 and I now fear that my credit card info will be comprimised as a different person has stated.  Jeff Anderson should be behind bars and will be someday I am sure. I am now a more educated internet shopper.

FRAUDULENT COMPANY!!!!

by baileycoulter, July 9, 2009
Fraud, deception, criminal!

This company is committing FRAUD!!  Do not place orders on this site!! You may receive the product you ordered but BE AWARE that this company is taking your money and using STOLEN credit cards to purchase your order on the actual manufactorer's website (which is more expensive). If you place an order with Digital Electronics for Less, you are allowing this company to commit fraud against an innocent victim.  Your merchandise will be marked by the manufactorer as stolen and your local law enforcement may come knocking on your door because you have committed a crime.  It doesn't matter that you unknowingly participated - it is still a felony!! It's not worth it - DON'T DO IT!

Very poor! Do not trust !!!!!

by rippedoff12, June 13, 2009
I ordered a camera mid May 2009. Days went by and I heard nothing after which I contacted them via e-mail. The reply said my item was out of stock and my order cancelled. 6 weeks later my credit card (excellent credit with no past issues of unauthorized use) was charged for an HP printer from HP Homestore and shipped to someone in Ohio. This is an item sold also by Digitalelectronics4less. They sell relatively few products. I strongly suspect the used my credit car to purchase the printer and sell it to an online customer of theirs.

Mini-Madoff operation

by yukondoug, April 17, 2009
I can only say I should have checked Epinions before doing business with this company. My experience: identical to the people who have posted since December '08 (and maybe earlier). Next day confirmation; claim that item was shipped from Amazon.com, "should arrive next week." Guess what? Next week just went. No camera, but credit card charged. Only an answering machine when I call to ask about my order.  I'm not expecting a call back. Now time to call the cops, as another reviewer suggested.

I just recently moved and my printer was damaged during the trip. So I needed a good replacement in a hurry. After searching online I finally settled on an hp and this store had the best price at the time and I was looking to spend as little as possible. I recieved shipping confirmation a few days after placing my order and my order arrived a few days after that. I would describe my shopping experience here to be pretty cut and dry. No problems, from an experienced online shopper who knows how to find the deals I would rank this one near the top of my list.
