Hi-Tech Electronics

Never wrote a review for anything… so this was so bad I had to say something. We were browsing the shops, the wife and i, and when we came to the store front for this shop, my wife began looking at the cheap shirts at the front. We were greeted by an African man with an accent who I assume is the owner because when my wife said she was just looking he took the shirt and said you can’t just look, go away I don’t want you here. I was appalled and said, «fuck you, you don’t treat customers like that!» He got angry and followed behind me and kicked me. When I turned around he said he was gonna punch me and cocked his arm back and did a fake, uncommitted punch. Luckily no one was hurt but beware and never go here. The shop owner is violent. This store deserves to go out of business and the owner to prison.

These sheisters don’t even deserve a one rating but there is no 0 rating option. I was in need of a camera and went there. They sold me a Panasonic Lumix 20 Megapixel that had $ 700 marked on the box. I paid $ 300. I was in town getting ready to get on tour bus marking the 8^th anniversary of the loss of my son so was very emotional. The salesman charged me $ 300 and threw in a selfie stick that doesn’t even work now. This was July 4, 2015. Since I have returned home, I see I paid twice what it is worth. They didn’t give me the box for the camera and afterwards I wondered why. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DEN OF THIEVES AT ALL COST. I am going to report them to the Better Business Bureau.

BEWARE!!! These are sleazeball scammers. Not only are the products third rate garbage they will charge your credit card more, like $ 20 more, than their already over inflated prices. Good luck calling them! Phone number on receipts are not in service.

STAY AWAY! Purchased a UK to usa plug adapter. Had to haggle down from 30 bucks to 10 and then it didn’t work. Walked 8 avenue round trip to return and they refused to refund me for a broken product that simply did not work. STAY AWAY

Their gimmick: quote you a price. You shudder and walk away. They yell a new price at you. (i.e $ 35!!!) You agree reluctantly. They charge your card. You look — it’s suddenly $ 43. «Why is tax $ 7??» you ask. «I said $ 39!!!» They’ve already charged your card. This place should be SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY.

Had to review for the lols. They tried to charge me $ 50 for a no name manufacturer keyboard worth 10 $ max. Even tourists can’t fall for this can they?

Biggest scam in nyc! We were in desperate need of a memory card for our camera. We paid $ 40 for a $ 10 card! Then we were tricked into buying a lens filter for $ 50 that retails for $ 20. After thinking about it for a few minutes, we returned to the store and were told «that is how I make my money». Absolutely a den of thieves! Stay away! Do not step foot into this place!

These guys are a bunch of scammers. I was tricked into buying a camera lens hood for $ 99 plus tax which is probably worth just about $ 20, — tops.
And then on the receipt it said «no refunds, exchange only with receipt within 7 days. thank you!»
yeah well, thank YOU very much, scammers!
I hope you really need it that much!

I was quoted $ 50 for an iPhone 5 bumper. I said I wasn’t interested and was on my way out, so one of the lovely upstanding gentlemen showed me the door and told ME to NEVER COME BACK.
Stay away from these jerks.

Stay away from this den of thieves, liars and cheats. Price gouging is how they stay in business. Refused refunds for brand new products, tried to force me to pay cash rather than by card.

Walk in, you’ll be made to feel uncomfortable. Then, look at that CASSETTE TAPE PLAYER! for 80 bucks. Walk out. Do not spend money at this little tourist trap gyp joint.
