STAY AWAY!!!

by laurieo1 , Sep 27 '09
I recently placed 2 orders with Abe's of Maine for over $2,000 total.  Each order I was to receive some sort of gift card.  The first order was a $25 gift card, the second order warranted a $100 gift card.  While this "gift card" I'm sure ...

Received Product , but poor customer service & shipping problems

by droogmaster , Jul 18 '09
Last update (3):I won't say that I would never order from them again, but the chances of me doing so are very unlikely.  I originally thought, well, maybe I'll give them another chance, since the VP said he'd reimburse me shipping and ...

Many times when you are looking for a new product, and no one seems to know anything about it, you try to do your research and about your product and before you purchase it and put a lot of money into it.  When I first started and researching the ...

Great prices, upsell can be annoying, shipping was fast. Would shop there again.

by cardinal_sox , Jun 17 '09
Great prices, delivery was quicker than I expected, and overall pleased - but not without some concerns. Primarily the upsell away from free ground shipping. I don't mind trying to upsell me after the sale - that is good sales, but I was promised one ...

Miserable, unprofessional and full of scam

by billyjoe2009 , Mar 11 '09
Never shop here!!!! I can only use "miserable" to describe my shopping experiences. I ordered a Nickon S550 camera with them on line. And right after I placed my order, they sent me an e-mail asking me to call them back to confirm some information. I ...

I may be one of the lucky few, since this was my first purchase with Abe's of Maine, but my experience buying from them has been positive. I bought a Tascam DR1 portable digital recorder . Their price was $ 110 dollars less than the online store i ...

Word of Caution on Shipping

by the1forte , Feb 09 '09
I ordered a Panasonic Plasma TV in early January. The price was great, the shipping estimate was 7-10 business days. I received the TV at the end of January, so actual delivery was more like 15-20 business days. This has been my experience with Abes, ...

After placing my order, it took 3 days for them to get around to the marketing up sell call, holding up the order for those days. After the sales pitch, they told me it would be shipped out the next day, it turned out to take an additional 3 days ...

The item ordered was not in stock. The web site listed it as in stock, but immediately after notifying me that the item was no longer in stock, they changed the web iste. It took them about 10 days before notifying me.

Good website, found the product, order went phone. Subsequent phone call from Abe's sold me a cable I might not need but that's my fault for not knowing whether I really needed it. Product arrived fine and saved me over $300 compared to local big box retailers.

I got an e-mail with the above tracking number right away after the order was placed, but when I logged on to the web site to try to track the order I got a message that "no information is available" for that order number. After 4 days, I got another e-mail which provided me with a tracking number, (and a different order#),which was helpful, but I would have liked a more informative response to my earlier attempts to track the order, like "tracking information will be available in 4 days." Still, I'm happy with the purchase and would buy here again.
