Scammers

Scammers! I ordered a windscreen for a microphone off your website and while it did state on the site that the item was not in stock, it didn't indicate a delivery time. I ordered the item regardless thinking at most it would take a week. I waited a week following my purchase and contacted your customer services on the 4th September for the delivery times since you seem unable to provide this any other way. The person I spoke with advised me at the time, it would still take another 2 weeks for delivery since the items wasn't in stock. 2 WEEKS!!! For an item smaller than my hand. I promptly cancelled my order with the person on the phone and they advised I would get a refund in the following few days and an email advising me of my cancelled order. I have not received either and in fact, I received an email from DHL to say its on the way. I DO NOT WANT THIS ITEM, I CANCELLED MY ORDER!!!!!!!!!!!! I again called your customer services about this and was advised that when I originally called, it was impossible to cancel the order because it was in transit. What kind of dumb excuse is that?! It's in transit. I don't care if it's on the moon, I called to cancel, was told it was cancelled and now I'm being told it was impossible. WHAT. THE. F***! Now, I will have two of these items, one which came OVERNIGHT from Amazon and the other which took nearly 4 WEEKS to get here from Germany through Kamera Express (maybe consider dropping the Express part in your name). If you read this review, please consider this and DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE. They will mess you around, won't care about your needs or your custom and are quick to say 'Oh well, guess you will have to run around after us to get your money back'. Pathetic. I will never recommend this store to anyone, nor will I ever use this company again for anything. STAY AWAY FROM THESE SCAMMERS!

We are very sorry to read about your experience. This is definitely not the level of service we want to provide, and we fully understand your frustration about the delay, the cancellation process, and the mixed communication you received. As your order is now on its way, you can simply refuse the delivery at the door. The package will then be returned to us automatically, and once received, your refund will be processed. Again our apologies for this experience.

I have ordered an item and yet

I have ordered an item and yet, not send. I sent an email to know where is it, but yet no answer.
On the order payment it was said, that would have been sent in 1-2 days; 4 have past, and no new information. If you don’t have the item in your store, don’t put “available”, just simply say that is not available. So you don’t leave people waiting for important things, as I work with what I have ordered.
Very disappointed. Order n. 14901696. If today I will not have any updated, I will go through Paypal and ask the refund with them.

We’re sorry to read about your disappointment. I checked your order and can confirm that the item is shown as out of stock on our website. Your cancellation has already been processed, so you will not need to take any further action. Our apologies for the inconvenience and the delay in communication.

Fast, effective and efficient.

I have ordered camera equipment across and around the globe over many years and none have been more efficient, fast, and effective in their service than Kamera Express.

We're very sorry to hear this. That’s definitely not the experience we want to deliver. Although the order showed as shipped, it was not our intention to leave you without updates. We're looking into it and will make sure to inform you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

Thank you for your review, and our sincere apologies for the delay.

We completely understand your frustration, placing an order on July 22nd and still receiving no updates or tracking is absolutely not how things should go.

Unfortunately, the item you ordered is an on order product that we haven’t yet received from our supplier. As soon as it arrives at our warehouse, we’ll ship it out immediately and you’ll receive a confirmation with tracking details.

We're very sorry for the lack of communication in the meantime. If you'd like, feel free to contact us at reviews@kamera-express.nl so we can personally follow up and keep you informed.

Thank you for your patience.

I am extremely disappointed with this company. I placed an order, paid in full, but never received the product. Despite multiple attempts to contact customer service, I either received vague promises or was completely ignored.

Weeks have passed, and I still have no refund. During this time, I could have used the money for more important needs or even earned income if I had received the product as expected.

Now I am forced to consult a lawyer and file a complaint with Dutch consumer protection authorities.

Very unprofessional and careless service. I do not recommend this company at all.

Could you please reach out to us via a private message or email at reviews@kamera-express.nl with your order details? We would like to personally investigate your case and work towards a solution as quickly as possible.

Prices are insane

A used sony a6000 is 475 euro on their website .on Ebay is literally less than half the price . The camera is 12 years old and doesn't worth that much at all

Thank you for your feedback. We totally get that it’s natural to compare prices. The prices on our website reflect the condition of the product, the warranty, and the service we include. Unfortunately, we don’t have any influence over prices on platforms like eBay. What we can offer is peace of mind: all our used gear is carefully checked, comes with a warranty, and you’ll have a team you can always reach out to if you need help. If you’d like, feel free to get in touch with us. We’re happy to discuss about the camera or see if we can work something out for you.

Bought a digital camera on 8th May and still haven’t received any shipping details after 4 days except for my order number. No updates or anything. Seeing all the reviews of delayed shipments just makes me so worried! I just hope to be able to get it before the end of the month where I can take it to travel!

Very Bad customer service

I’m really disappointed with my experience. I placed an order on March 9, and it still hasn’t been shipped. I’ve contacted customer service TWICE by email asking for a cancellation, but received no reply AT ALL. This level of service is frustrating and unacceptable. I no longer need the item and want a proper response and resolution.

Avoid these guys

Avoid these guys! Absolutely terrible service.

I ordered a replacement part for one of my Godox lights. They listed on their website that it was in stock. I later found out that it actually wasn’t in stock and that it had to be ordered from their supplier. I agreed to wait and then 4 months passed before I received the item (which is weird because when I order from china it takes around 1-2 weeks). They didn’t attempt to keep me updated about my order either, I had to keep asking them.

When I finally received the part after waiting for so long I found that it was defective and did not work at all.

I contacted the company and they said I need to send it to them for repair. They were not willing to send me a new one or give me a refund. The part was only £19 but I’m fed up of spending nearly half a year on this and losing out on using my equipment. It has cost my far more in the long run.

This company is a scam and should be avoided at all costs.

Thanks for the review, I can indeed see that it took a long time for our supplier to deliver it to us, we received the item on 10 December and you received it on 13 December. You then had 30 days to test the item and let us know if it is to your liking or not. 3 months after delivery, we received an email from you that the item was broken, unfortunately we can't just take it back then. Given the amount, I would certainly like to look into the possibilities. I will contact you for that. Sorry you have experienced this in this way and we will discuss it.

Selling used products as new

Ordered two new tubelights. One came in incomplete and with clear signs of prior usage while the other one has a faulty battery.
No response from their customer service. Truly a bad, dishonest experience. Will not return there anymore!

Disappointing Experience


I had an incredibly frustrating experience with this company. First, I went to have my film camera photos developed. They emailed me saying the photos were ready, but when I arrived, I was told they had all turned out black. I ended up going to another shop, where I got my pictures quickly and without any issues.
Next, I ordered a product at the beginning of the month, only to receive no updates for 20 days. When I finally emailed them to ask about my order, I was informed that the product was no longer available.
Instead of issuing a refund, they suggested I buy a different product for an additional €40-one that wasn't remotely similar to what l originally ordered.
This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable. I would strongly recommend avoiding their services altogether. l

Thank you very much for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that you had such an unpleasant experience with our services. This is definitely not the level of service we strive for.

We deeply regret that your photos turned black and understand how disappointing this must have been. In addition, we regret that you did not receive updates on your order and were eventually told that the product was no longer available.

Your comments are very valuable to us and we take such complaints very seriously. We will do everything possible to avoid such situations in the future and improve our service.

Once again, our sincere apologies for the inconvenience. We hope we can restore your confidence in our services in the future.

Do yourself a favor

Do yourself a favor, don't buy anything from them. and look for reliable seller out there. I placed an order on the 12 of November 2024 of 3 products. 2 received after some days, and the other one took them a almost 45 days to tell me that their supplier is out of stock. I asked for the cancellation of the item because I can't wait more months to get. Then asked of a refund of the same amount I paid for the Godox product that was not delivered. Until this date, and since 2 weeks, I am trying to get my refund, but no answer was received. I think I am scammed by this business and not sure if they will refund my 569,00 € for the Godox Kit. I am not even sure how to reach them. REFUND ME !

By the way, their emails come from kamera-express.nl

UDPATE:

After writing this review, they contacted me the day after (the 10th Jan 2025), why you didn't do that earlier and solve the problem, why I have to send many emails without getting a response for weeks??

And what do you mean by "Regarding the order you placed, unfortunately we did not receive a correct payment from you"? What do you mean by correct payment? I received 2 items, and the 3rd didn't arrive after 45 days of waiting, then you said that the article is out of stock with you seller? I asked for a refund since that date, and nothing is received until now. REFUND ME for the article of 569,00 € !

UPDATE: TODAY 16 JAN 2025, Until now, there is no refund received. Its a pain to communicate with them. They rarely answer and sometimes no answer

Thank you for your comment. Regarding the order you placed, unfortunately we did not receive a correct payment from you, so I would like to check with you that we can refund the rest of the amount. Unfortunately we were unable to respond to your messages earlier due to the busy times. I apologise for this and will get back to you.

KE - bad customer service when things go wrong

I bought and paid for a new GoPro with bundle pack in the Amsterdam store on 29 November 2024.
As that specific store did not have a unit in stock, it was arranged that the product would be delivered via PostNL the next day.
Of no fault of KE, the delivery was lost by Post NL.
That is where the bad experience started - not so much the store staff - but rather the back office process delays and various commitments made by both KE call centre agents and staff at the Amsterdam store to sort out the problem and get me the product that I bought on 29 November 2024.
On 27 December 2024, a courteous staff member at the Amsterdam store made 4 phone calls to the KE central warehouse to arrange delivery and secure a unit for me.
To prevent any further delays, we agreed that the delivery would be made to the store and I would pick it up from the store. He stated that the item should arrive on the next day being Saturday but that I should wait for Sunday to come in to collect. He did state that I should also wait to receive an email. With no email received once again I went into store today being Sunday.
Once again, I still do not have a solution and am yet to be a first purchase satisfied KE customer with product in my hand.
Today, a friendly staff member in the Amsterdam store (co-incidentally the same staff member who sold the product to me on 29 November 2024) stated that my allocated unit had not arrived in store yet.
She then checked in store and showed me that she had another/same unit in store but due to some internal system / code issue, she could not allocate the other unit (which was not reserved for another customer) to me and it being a Sunday, there is no-one in back office that could assist with the system issue.
The only solution she could offer was that I must come in tomorrow to hopefully sort out the problem and get, in my hands, the unit I paid for 1 month ago.
Quite frankly, I find this unacceptable that once again I must wait and go in yet another time into store to take delivery.
The problem seems to be the internal back office system/processes when things go wrong rather than the store staff trying to assist.
Tomorrow is another day and a month after I paid for the product.
Let’s see if I’m a happy customer tomorrow???
