Earlier this week, I purchased on-line a Cooke S4i 12mm Single from E Prime Rentals for around…read more$20,000. I had agonized for several weeks over purchasing this new or used. New, it was an expensive lens. I had not purchased a lens from EPR previously. Were they a reputable company? Was their inspection comments to be believed? I then decided to give EPR a try since their return policy was commendable. So I sent them a wire transfer. The same day, I received an order confirmation, and shortly afterwards, a shipping confirmation. Boy, that was quick! Maybe this company was to be believed. Shipping was included, and there was no Texas sales tax ( at 8.25%) added to the cost. This was looking like a great deal. About 48 hours after order confirmation, FedEx showed up at my door with the lens. I immediately inspected the lens for any use and/or abuse. The lens mount was snug as it should be. The focusing and zoom rings were solid and firm without any sloppiness or wear. No dents or scratches on the lens body. The EPR inspection comments stated that there were faint scratches on the front lens elements. My inspection showed no scratches anywhere. Maybe the EPR inspector's reading glasses were dirty? In summation, I feel like I received a "NIB" lens that showed no wear or flaws. Will I buy my next lens from E Prime Rentals?....Yes! Would I recommend EPR to another serious filmmaker?....Yes! To E Prime Rentals, I want to say thank you, you have vastly exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to my next purchase from you.

I don't normally write reviews, but I simply had to in this case. This is the best customer service…read moreand quality I've ever experienced from an online photo/video company (hands down). Their team is quick to respond and their prices were more than fair. I'm a young filmmaker based out of Los Angeles, and I'm growing my business this year, so every dollar counts and I really can't afford to make bad purchases. I just purchased a set of Cooke S4i Mini's from E Prime Rentals, and I couldn't be happier with the transparency, speed of service, and price point. They also earned my long-term business for their quality and customer service. Long story short, I'll be using E Prime Rentals for quality used lens and camera purchases and rentals again (and again) on my film sets and media workshops across the US. I'm also telling my former film school friends and colleagues about it here in Los Angeles. You should too.

JB Effects did a great job and in a timely manner. We were so pleased that I took some old negatives to have photos printed in black and white. These turned out great as well. They are very helpful and answered all our questions we ask. I would highly recommend their services to anyone. And very affordable as well. Thanks JB for bringing my memories of my parents back to life for me in black and white.

Then it came time for me to insert my card and pay. The guy at the counter with a mustache told me "you can tap right here" and then UNDER HIS BREATH IN A CONDESCENDING TONE, said "if you know how". Like, I clearly heard him say it! I spoke to my friends about it who have all been customers at coastal and they ALL said they've received some patronizing comment from this particular guy. I don't see why, when there are so many more cost effective, faster film labs that respect their customers, I would continue coming here, and I don't think anyone reading this review should either.
