They charged my credit card more than a month before they ever even shipped my order. They do not answer their phone - or respond to e-mails requesting an update on the status of long overdue orders.
Do yourself a favor and find what you are looking for somewhere else.
I placed an order for a small part about 6 weeks ago. I got an email ten days ago saying that my Oder status had changed to 'shipped'. Today when I went tO the USPS website to track the shipment it says it just shipped yesterday. I would never do business with this guy again! He also does not respond to emails.
The personal service Thomas gives makes this site all the better! It did take a bit to get my order, but as a single person running my own business, I fully understand that life can sometimes throw you a curveball and get in the way. Thomas was wonderfully professional and even 2-day shipped my order for me. Big thumbs up on my end, and I'll definitely order parts from here again!
Every bad review that you read about this company is true. I sent my camera for repair in 8/2012. Three months later, no word at all as to its status. I understand the owner doesn't respond to emails (true in my case) and doesn't respond to voicemails (true as well in my case). What an interesting customer service model!
I read that he does respond to negative reviews on this website. In case you are reading this review, my order number is #*******. Please send my camera back to me so I can have it repaired by a professional company.
I received my camera in perfect working order with the repair service that I ordered completed. It took slightly longer than I anticipated (1 day shy of 7 weeks) to get my camera back. The site owner was mostly courteous and receptive of my requests. Except for the time it took, my experience was good.
3/29/13 Ordered two parts. Paid immediately with paypal. Received computer generated order confirmtion. Absolutely no responses to any of my emails for 3 weeks. I am disputing through paypal to recover my money. I posted to: http://www.darntoothysam.com/blog/2011/06/darntoothysam-com-is-not-a-scam/
When I checked back today, my post had been deleted.
I ordered an o-ring for my camera housing, and after 3 weeks I hadn't received it. My emails went unanswered and they don't pick up messages from their phone. Scam? I think so. I have filed for a refund with paypal.
I ordered a replacement part for my camera, which broke a week before my trip to Hawaii. This was one of the only websites that offered my part, so I ordered it and ponied up the dough for priority shipping, thinking that surely it would arrive within a week... Turns out the package was not even shipped until 5 days after I ordered! Now I'm headed for the vacation of a lifetime without a working camera. Should've known better ordering from a website called darntoothysam!
I needed a part for a Canon 580EX flash and ordered and recieved it within the week (within 2 days actually) in plenty of time to make the repair and have it ready to use this weekend. I also communicated with Thomas via email and he responded same day to let me know the status of the order. Based on my experience I recommend them highly I will most certainly use www.darntoothysam.com anytime I need a part or repair in the future.
I purchased an LCD screen repair service for a Nikon SLR digital camera on a Friday. On Tuesday I received an e-mail saying they were wainting for my camera to arrive. In less that a month I received an e-mail that my camera had been repaired and shipped. I received it in three days of the e-mail. The camera works as good as new. I am very happy with their service.
Answer: Dan, please stop with your lies. You are not even a customer of ours! If you are, what is your order number, post it here. I have no orders from anyone named Dan that aren't completed and shipped. Yes, I run my business from my home. I have customers drop by every week to give us cameras to repair, then they come back and pick them up and pay for our service. They are very happy with us. There are other companies that have started from a home as well. One or two that come to mind are Amazon.com and Apple. Are they scams? Zkarlo.com is not my company. I live in a city of 50,000 people, there are plenty of other businesses here. I have never stolen anything from anyone, and if you were a real person you would tell me what your order number is so I can figure out what your complaint is with us. You are a fake name made up just to slander us, but I have no idea who you are or why you are so mad. The only way I would know is if you told me who you really are. Anybody can make up fake names and leave fake reviews here, doesn't mean it's true. Thomas
