Customer Comments : October 2007 - October 2005

"I want to tell you Tape Resources is such a pleasure to do business with, and probably about the only one left in the United States that truly knows the meaning of Customer Service. Thank You!"
- Kathie A., Statesboro, GA, October 2007


"Thank you for the kind and courteous service you have given us on all our orders, past and present. We are return customers and have always been amazed with the great help your representatives give us each time. You are always kind and accommodating. The product is always top notch, well packaged, and here promptly!

You will be hearing from us again soon!"
-Tom M., Rochester, NY, August 2007

"I place an order and the next day the items were here!!!!...Thank you for the quick services and helpful staff members."
-Chris, Gloucester City, NJ, August 2007

"Just wanted to say thank you for the outstanding service you gave with my first order of miniDV tapes. You guys are great. Just figured I'd let you know."
-Joe M., July 2007

"Hi Anna, Thanks so much for getting the tapes out as quickly as you did after we talked. UPS delivered them around 10 a.m. Saturday morning. I was concerned we're starting a project that required the tapes.

As I mentioned I do understand that delays and errors and can happen. I want to tell you, however, that from the moment I saw your ad on-line and listened to the recording of your business I had a good feeling that you guys were part of a company with which I'd want to have a long term relationship.

Your prompt attention and professionalism Anna reinforced my good feelings. Thank you so much and please know that I absolutely plan to continue using tape resources for our business and personal use. I also like the fact that you're located in Virginia Beach, not far from us in Maryland, and a place we vacation each year.

Thank You and we look forward to working with you in the future."

- Kai J., July 2007

"We got the shipment several days ago. Thanks for the prompt order. Nice to have a company work so quick."
- John M., April 2007

"Dear Anna, Just wanted you to know that you folks are amazing. It is always a pleasure ordering tape supplies from you. Your website is concise and clear. You are always helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and courteous. And my order is shipped and gets to me in a flash! I wish all businesses conducted themselves like you do. You are at the top of my list. Thanks."
- Richard W., Charlottesville, VA, February 2007

"Dear Ms. Santella, Thank you for your note, and for the very fast service. I was hunting for a new (to me), reliable, competitively priced, single vendor that stocked all of the blank tapes in which I was interested, and fell upon Tape Resources when running a Google search on Sony's PHDV-xxxDM tapes. When I read the testimonials and article reprints on your website, with the company's emphasis on the employees, I was hooked. Thanks for being there!"
- J. Morris, Maine, November 2006


"Hi Anna, Just wanted to thank you for the extra effort in seeing that the tapes were delivered in time for our shoot. I greatly appreciate your help! You and the rest of the crew at Tape Resources rocks!"
- B. Cullipher, Norfolk, VA, November 2006

"I've been meaning to write and say thank you for quite some time now. I especially wanted to mention the M&M's. I'm sure you have a lot of comments on the M&M's, but for me it is a nice reminder of my Grandparents, who are now both deceased. I lived out of town and every Christmas, my grandparents would send our family Christmas presents, and inside every box of presents, there were a few packages of M&M's for my sibilings and myself. When I opened the first box of tape ordered from Tape Resources, I was happily surprised and reminded of this Holiday tradition. Thank you for the little things, they mean more than you know."
- J. Wilmes, Saint Louis, MO, November 2006

"Wow, I wasn't expecting next day service and the M&M's were a nice touch. Thanks for such great service. We'll need more tapes in the future so with your pricing and service I will definitely use you guys again."
- D. Blades, Baltimore, MD, November 2006

"First of all, let me just say that your company is awesome! I've been a customer of yours for several years. You have the perfect blend of good prices and incredible customer service. It's always a pleasure to do business with you."
- C. Comm, Seattle, WA, October 2006

"I appreciate the prompt and accurate service of your company. My shipment was delivered exactly as ordered within 2 days of our telephone conversation. Your efficient upbeat attitude made this transaction easy and pleasant. I look forward to continued business with your company."
- A. Zafran, Palm Beach County, January 2006

"You and your team have lived up to and exceeded my expectations of Tape Resources. Your professionalism and friendly attitude have made doing business with TR a real pleasure. Keep up the good work."
- P. Rosensteel, October 2005

"In addition to the products and your prices, I especially appreciate the seamless tracking system."
- L. Digiulio, October 2005

"Wow that was fast !!!!!!!!!!!"
- J. Woolsey, October 2005

"I just finished speaking with Michelle to place an order. She was delightful to deal with: cheerful, friendly, bubbly...and, most importantly, knowledgeable about your products and what would best fit my needs. One doesn't always find someone with so much personality and competence in sales and customer (no) service these days, so my conversation with Michelle was a welcomed breath of fresh air. Congratulations on having such a terrific employee. Even if your prices and selection weren't among the best I found during my online search for tapes, dealing with Michelle was reason enough to guarantee I'll be a return customer."
- B. Florence, Georgia, August 2005

"Thanks for the quick delivery of my DV tapes. I needed them by Saturday and they arrived today! (Friday)."
- S. Phelps, April 2005

"You guys are absolutely a joy to order from. We do alot of internet orders and I actually enjoy ordering from you. From providing the tracking # upon shipment to the little pack of candy in the box, you're the greatest."
- Molly & Brenda, February 2005

"Thank you very much for your help to find me a distributor in New York City... I appreciate the simple manner in which you went about finding this distributor and were able to call me back within five minutes... thank you and I will be sure to call again if I have need of any of the products that Tape Resources provides."
- G. Dragonetti, New York, February 2005

"I want to thank you for the excellent service rendered since I became a customer in 2003. I very much appreciate your timely responses and deliveries and the easy-to-use website."
- R. Burdman, February 2005

"As always, your assistance and support is the highest level. I really enjoy dealing with everyone at Tape Resources. I use your company's performance as benchmark to rate other vendors."
- T. McCormick, February 2005

"Excellent service! I've recommended Tape Resources to many, many associates."
- G. Rhodes, February 2005

"I just got the order delivered and everything looks good. I have never ordered from Tape Resources before and I cross my fingers everytime I order from a new place... I'll definitely be back for more purchases in the near future... prices on the tapes I needed were way below other sellers....So thanks for great prices and speedy service and I look forward to doing business with Tape Resources again."
- S. Mondragon, January 2005


Customer Comments : July 2003 - January 2004

"Just want to thank you guys for providing top level product, amazing prices, and for shipping the order out immediately. My finished product looks great, but all the credit goes to Tape Resources for providing everything I need to get the job done - quickly and professionally. I would never order from anywhere else. Thanks again!"
- E. Mitchell, January 2004

"Thanks for the great service. You guys are awesome. It is not very often that you get outstanding service like you guys provided. I will definitely plan on all of my future DVD ordering needs to use Tape Resources.com."
- D. Smith, December 2003

"Just wanted to send an acknowledgment that I received the package this morning and was very delighted on the quick shipment and your team's rapid processing of my order."
- W. Seymour, December 2003

"Just a quick note to let you know that I received my first order from your company and I was pleasantly surprised. I took a chance on your company based on your web page and I am glad I did. I placed my order late Xmas eve and I received the UPS package yesterday, Monday, December 29, 2003. I ordered 15 Maxell DVD-R (round disc holder) this time and I will purchase from you again in the near future. Price and service are key to my purchasing decisions and your company exceeded my expectations in both areas."
- L. A. Fry, PA, December 2003

"It is such a privilege to do business with you folks. The business community could sure learn a lot from the way you folks do business."
- R. Carmichael, December 2003

"I only ordered two MiniDV tapes from you, but was absolutely blown away by your customer service! You treat me like I am a million-dollar customer! Well, I am starting a video production business early next year. Guess who I will give all my media business to? You guessed it, Tape Resources. Thank you again."
- D.Heller, November 2003

"I placed my order on Tuesday, got it on Thursday as predicted, and the internet shipping special price was a welcome change from the typical gouge. Thanks."
- B. Comiskey, November 2003

"Just wanted to take a second to thank you for such wonderful service! We just received the products that were ordered online, and (as in our previous orders with you) they arrived just a promised and at a great price. Your prices are better and your website is easier to use than the other site we used to order from. So now you've found some loyal customers in Florida!"
- M. and B. Courtney, November 2003

"You guys have a great attitude,it shows in the way you conduct
business.I'll pass the word and will definitely be back."
- G. Parke, November 2003

"My shopping experience with taperesources was really an ultimate one. I am happy that I placed an order with you. I appreciate your responsiveness, friendliness and the promises (shipping date) you keep."
- V. Singal , October 2003

"When I call, a person answers the phone. A friendly person. And if they don't have the info I need, they look it up, and they call back as promised. In a world that just seems to be getting more rude by the day, a customer service attitude like Tape Resource's is outstanding and it really inspires loyalty!"
- D. Gulbransen, September 2003

"Your Web Site process is the best and very clear and precise."
- G. Hachlili, September 2003

"I ordered yesterday afternoon and had my mini DVD's this afternoon.You taught me something new about marketing and customer service. We'll use it in our business."
- S. Blackson, September 2003

"The service was outstanding. You have the customer interest first."
- L. Chapman, September 2003

"I recently ordered several DVCPRO tapes from Tape Resources. I was very pleased with the quick service and the excellent prices. Buying my tapes from you, instead of other distributors or the university bookstore, saved me $60. I've recommended Tape Resources to my classmates, as well as the underclassmen here at Syracuse. You've got yourself a happy customer who'll be back again.
"
- T. Millard, September 2003

"I don't often send praise to people for jobs well done because I expect that with any business, but lately I have been inundated with horrible service and bad business practices through the internet...till I ran into your site and sent an order in. The site was easily navigated and everything went smoothly. I had a small problem that was easily corrected with my credit card being entered into the system. The representative I spoke to was friendly and helpful [and] everything was straightened out in a matter of seconds (not minutes) With that I just wanted to commend you all and tell you to keep up the good work. I have already mentioned you to some of my buddies and work associates as some of them have had bad experiences simply getting stock tape and blank DVDs. Keep up the good work!
"
- Kevin H., FL, August 2003

"I would like to say that your service was one of the best I have ever witnessed. I really appreciate such promptness. I would recommend your website to all my friends. You really kept your word."
- H. Singh, July 2003

"I wanted to email you so everyone could know how great you are. I was having problems with the DVDs I burned. I didn¹t know what the matter was. I called up Taperesources to see if I could get a sample or two of the media I bought previously and ran out of before I bought another 50. David accommodated me smashingly. Not only did he send me 10 or so Maxell DVD-Rs, but he also sent half a dozen Verbatim DVDs. Because of this I was able to figure out what the problem was with the DVDs I've burned (not the fault of the media, which I at first thought). The service here is amazing. You guys will always have me as a customer because of it. The great prices help too."
- A. Whittaker, July 2003

"Anna - Just wanted to tell you how fast the shipment was. Great prices as well. I am telling everybody I know about you guys."
- S. Poser, July 2003

"Hello Anna, The Panasonic Mini DV tapes arrived today. And by an amazing coincidence so did my Panasonic DV953 camcorder -- both orders arriving at the same time by UPS. I always say it's often the "small things" that make good companies -- great companies. And it's nice to be able to put a face to a name. Here's one of me and Bill Gates -- really... it's not a "doctored" photo. I will definitely recommend Tape Resources to my friends."
- P. Stephen, July 2003

"The case came today and I am simply delighted with it!!! Great product and outstanding service. I'm very impressed, and will use your store as a primary resource from now on."
- F. Townsend, July 2003

"We will continue to order our supplies from you...not just for the customer service, but the consistent quality and expedience of shipment."
- M. Campbell, July 2003

Customer Comments : January 2003 - June 2003

"I would like to let all of you at taperesources.com that you are all doing an excellent job. From the moment I type your web address in my browser, I know that it will always be a pleasant experience. Great prices, user-friendly ordering, and customer service is always ready to help with a smile. No high-pressure sales and I love it. Every step of the way someone is ready to help me. Thank you for everything."
- C. Carpenter, MI, June 2003

"This was my first experience with your company and I have to say it was ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING!!! Please expect many more orders!"
- A. Chase, June 200

"I just wanted to say I am very pleased with the service, pricing, and professionalism at Tape Resources. … I'm so glad you found me. I am an independent producer and film/videomaker … and I didn't have time to shop around, and was stuck in the position of having to get tape stock and supplies from a company lacking business skills and simple courtesy. I dreaded ordering tapes. Now I am thrilled to use the Taperesources.com web ordering system, along with your friendly confirmation, for all future purchases. Thank you so much."
- L. Fritchy, MasterPeace Productions, MA, May 200

"You have been extremely helpful & accommodating. I wish everyone did business as professionally and as courteously as you do."
- P. Wilcher, May 2003

"Anna, you've been placed on my hero list! I really expected to not receive anything in reply to my request to add to my order, or for you folks to tell me you couldn't do it. I received the packages yesterday, very speedy. Thanks again. Glad I discovered you folks."
- T. Babej, May 2003

"WOW, this Customer Satisfaction IS good enough! THANKS for your speedy response!"
- S. Zirkle, May 2003

"Your customer service is one of the best I have encountered
online. I especially like the fact that your inventory status clearly indicates when something is not in stock and how much your inventory is.This helps in deciding whether to place an order or not. If only other retailers had the same level of control over inventory... Keep up the good work."
- J. Rosario, May 2003

"I purchased 20 mini DV sony tapes couple of weeks back and started wondering why I ever bought any tape from anyone else. Your order process is so simple and so personalized, I can't even imagine how far ahead your services are in comparison to your rivals. I also received a coupon for free shipping with future order which surprised me because it was totally unexpected. The shopping experience with you has made me very pleased. The photograph of the team was fabulous. You have left a distinct personal touch to my shopping experience. Wonderful experience !! Thanks !!"
- S. Thakur, May 2003

" I recently orderd from you for the first time. I just wanted to say I was very pleased with your prompt service and great value. I look forward to buying ALL my tapes from you in future, and will recommend you to all my colleagues."
- Dave Park, April 2003

"I just received my first order. From start to finish, the ordering process was painless, and the personal touch is everywhere. Everything just screams "If you need something, call me!"
- Jim Hayes, April 2003

"I recently placed my first order with your company, through your online store. I searched all over the web and you had the cheapest prices, and a very easily navigable site. I placed my order Tuesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon it was here, WOW! As a college student, money is tight, and by buying my DVCPRO and Betacam SP tapes from you, I saved well over $240 (had I purchased them through my school). Thanks again for the great service, and I'll be back soon for another order!!"
- D. Nard, April 2003

"Just wanted to let you know how much I love your company. Efficient, prompt & good prices."
- Max, April 2003

"Once again Tape Resources has come through with excellent service! I deal with several companies, mostly online and you are the only company that delivers what I order within a few days. I have never had a bad experience with you and I have to say that without a doubt you are the best in the business. Thanks once again!"
- S. McPartland, April 2003

"I'd just like to thank you all. I'm not sure how you manage to stay so happy and helpful every single time. I don't have a single complaint. Not one. Your staff is superb, knowledgeable and friendly, and go out of their way to make you feel valued. You're not only the best media company I've dealt with for customer service, you're the best company I've ever had the please dealing with, period. Because of this I felt I'd like to let you know that I DO notice the difference, and you've got a customer for life, who recommends you at the drop of a hat."
- R Lawrence, March 2003

"OK, I admit it. I'm impressed. The price you offered for the DVD-RAM I wanted was lower than what I'd been paying. My order was easy to place online. I had instant email updates at every stage of the transaction. I had a tracking number to follow the order and the order arrived promptly. Upon opening the package, I found my order correct and intact and a coupon for free shipping on the next order. If you do this every day then yes, it is legendary service!"
- B. Hufker, March 2003

"I've dealt with a lot of online stores but I have to say that your customer service quality is on the top of the list. My order arrived on time and order tracking/status was available immediately. Truly, your approach to your online business is unique and sets you apart from even the big players in a very positive way. Thanks!"
- J. O'Neil, March 2003

"I just wanted to tell you guys that I'm REALLY impressed with your business. I placed an order on Thursday afternoon ... I received a confirmation e-mail merely a few hours later, stating that the package had shipped and that I also received a small discount for being a first-time customer ... And even better, the package arrived in just two business days! ... And even the price was good, actually costing less than lesser-quality tapes sold at many other shops.

Very rarely do I encounter companies that exceed my expectations in every way, but this is one of those rare instances. I'm very impressed by your great service, price, and quality, and you can be sure that my next tape purchase will be with Tape Resources. Thank you!"
- T. Kang, March 2003

"Wow, excellent! [My order] wasn't supposed to get here until tomorrow, and it arrived today! ... Thank you very much!"
- B. Bosaiya, Knockout Productions, WA, February 2003

"I had some questions concerning the various brands of mini DV tape. I called you folks and the lady I talked to was very nice and knowledgeable. I ordered some Mini DV tapes from you and was told that I would probably get them in about 3 days. Well I got the tapes the very next day. Thanks and I will be back with orders in the future."
- G. Sweigart, February 2003

"I just love recommending Tape Resources to all my friends and associates! You are simply THE BEST!!!"
- J. McPheeters, February 2003

"Great experience. Will tell all my friends and family to use you
guys. Best price. Paid for 3 day delivery, came in two days. Better than expected. Keep up the good work.
"
- A. Chauhan, February 2003

"I just wanted to extend my gratitude for your excellent customer service. This morning, I ordered some items, and your staff went above and beyond themselves to get me what I needed with the prices I wanted, even though this item was nearly out of stock. Along with this gesture of great customer service, I have ALWAYS been treated very kindly by each of your staff members whenever I call not only to order, but to ask some detailed questions. Each time I call with a question, I have always gotten an answer that satisfied my needs. I haven't had this much customer service from any company for quite a long time. So please keep up the good work, and I look forward to keeping my business with you for a very long time!"
- C. Laskowski, MN, February 2003

"I just want to tell you that I think you folks are among the best when it comes to speed of order processing. I'm always amazed. Thanks for allowing "service" to have meaning again in this country."
- J. King Musser, January 2003

CUSTOMER COMMENTS : JUNE 2002 - DECEMBER 2002

"I just wanted to let you guys know that it was a pleasure to do business with you. You have a great product, were fast shippers, and kept me informed all the way through my order up until UPS knocked on my door. It's hard to find good customer service like that these days. Keep up the good work and you definitely have my business in the future."
- M. Albert, December 2002

"For quite some time now I have said that good customer service is dead. I see now that it is alive and well with Tape Resources! This was my first time shopping with you guys, but I will certainly be returning, the quality of service and swiftness of delivery were nothing short of excellent. Thank you very much!"
- M. Van Hoesen, December 2002

I think that you all have a wonderful user-friendly website, you're prompt with delivery and just all around friendly- So thank you for such a wonderful example of how a real business should run."

I just want to tell you of the great job you and your staff are doing. There has not been a single time that I have called where I was not greeted with the warmest voice (frequently Jen). She(they) are the most sweetest, efficient and pleasant people that I have dealt with. Keep up the great work."
- F. Walker, DC, August 2002

"I just wanted to say how impressed I am with the professionalism of your team in helping me replaced an order of video tapes recently delivered to the wrong address and damaged by UPS. I've received your apology via the invoice, along with the Gift Certificates. Thank you for the nice gesture. I speak to conferences around the country on a regular basis and the issue of customer relations often comes up, in which I am asked to give examples of good and bad customer relations. In the future, I'll be happy to use your company as an example of a company that "gets it.". You went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure your customer got his delivery and remains a customer, even though the problem was the fault of UPS. Competitive prices [and] last but not least great attitudes on phone... Thanks again for your professionalism."

I don¹t have to read your Mission Statement to know that you truly value the customer."

Thanks for the wonderful service!"
- J. S. McPheeters, February 2002

"When I placed my order, a rep called me back within 20 minutes of me faxing my order to tell me that some of the tapes were not in stock. She asked if I wanted to wait and get the shipment all at once, or ship what was there, and get the rest later. Thank you so very, very much for having the professionalism to let me decide that. No other company that I deal with has ever given ME the decision, and that has caused so many problems with our purchasing department. They just about have a brain hemorrhage when orders are split. Thanks again for caring enough to ask a customer what they prefer. [..] I enjoy working with your company, and have no desire to get tapes anywhere else."

- Bill Domb, Xcentric Studios, CA, February 2002

"You know -- generally I hate getting advertising emails, even from companies I deal with. But not in your case. Whoever designs your email campaigns is good, very good. The emails are simple [and] direct... to tell the truth, I'd bet that 30 or 40 percent of the time I get an email from you, I buy something. Whether I buy anything or not, I always look through them. I can only say that about two or three other places. As I just did. Good job, folks."
- Don Mitchell, February 2002

- Tim Chumley, February 2002

It seems I no more than place the order and the merchandise is here. The service is outstanding. The ladies are always upbeat and extremely helpful. They are a credit to themselves and a true asset to Tape Resources. I look forward to continued years of doing business with Tape Resources."
- Bill Barlow, Fort Eustis Television, January 2002

- Rick McGee, KOSA-TV/CBS7, January 2002

"Dear Anna, thank you for the expeditious processing of my order and notification. I recently purchased a miniDv camcorder and held back on purchasing more tapes because I knew I could find a better deal elsewhere (and believe me - in NYC, you can) but when I linked to your site - I couldn't believe the low, low price! Another thing - for a web site to place employee pictures on it - shows the faith they have in you that you will provide excellent customer service! … Thank you again for your excellent customer service-looking forward to doing more business with you!"
- Kon Troy, January 2002

CUSTOMER COMMENTS : DECEMBER 2001 - JULY 2001

The fact that I can call, give my name, and order my standard supply of tape in about 70 seconds means I can get on to more important things, like making money.

"You guys and gals have been great! You are by far the friendliest and fairest company I deal with. Best of luck in the New Year. Looking forward to ordering more tapes. Keep up the good work! It does make a difference to hear a kind voice on the other end....Thanks again."
- Stan Lewis, January 2001

"I was really impressed with your prices, promptness, and service. Your website also helped me in deciding which type of stock to purchase. Anyhow, just writing to say thanks. I'll be sure to tell everyone I know."
- Tim, January 2001

"Dear friends at Tape Resources. I've always enjoyed placing orders with you. Even though my orders were generally small (DV tape), I was always treated royally. I've had the opportunity to pass the word and encourage friends in the business to order from you as well. I suppose that's the highest compliment!"
- Dave & Carole Dunlap, Team Expansion, January 2001

CUSTOMER COMMENTS : DECEMBER 2000 - JULY 2000

"Greetings everyone at Tape Resources! I wanted to take a minute to let everyone there know what a fantastic company I feel Tape Resources is. I have been ordering tapes from Tape Resources for 3 years and have never had anything but a positive experience. I frequently get flyers and literature in the mail from other tape supply companies, some of whom may even have slightly lower prices, but I don't even consider them. Tape Resources provides outstanding customer service and it is always a pleasure to call to place an order. I usually happen to place my orders with Jennifer or Melanie, and they always sound like they are in a jubilant mood. Thank you for offering such outstanding customer service and for being a top notch company."
- James Wulf - Digital Wave Productions, December 2000

"I wanted to let you know that out of all the businesses I deal with on the phone throughout the year your business is the best. By that I mean the most polite, most efficient, most informed, most professional, and I can't wait to recommend others to you when they ask who I buy tape from. I look forward to doing business with you for many years to come!"
- John Brune, November 2000

"One of the things I am thankful for this season is my association with Tape Resources. I do not know what I would do if I could not call David and get S-VHS master tapes delivered to my door within just a few days. He has always been so ready to help, knowledgeable, and FAST! I have 6 crews and we do over 200 bookings a year. I am not too humble to say we are the best in Houston at videotaping live performance. Probably the best anywhere. We travel all over the U.S. Thank you for being there for us!"
- Claudia Shaw, Executive Producer, Videomasters November 2000

"I just wanted to comment on how pleased I am with the service of your staff. Every time I call to place an order, they are always so kind and very helpful. I have had few problems regarding orders and every time your staff has either fixed it right away or found a way to compensate. I will continue to use Tape Resources to order all of our tapes. Not only are your prices the lowest I can find, but your service to me and I'm sure to other stations as well, is impeccable. Please tell your staff what a wonderful job they do and how grateful I am to order from you."
- Melissa Vines, KLST-TV, November 2000

"Your service is perfect. You can't improve on perfection."
- Wayne Kupferer Chicago, IL., November 2000

"Tape Resources continues to write the One Book on customer service: Attention, Attitude and Competitive Prices."
- Louie Bourgeois, Bourgeois Video Prod., Oct 2000

"Tape Resources is hands down the best vendor I've worked with. Other companies should look to Tape Resources as a definitive example of excellent customer service. I refuse to buy tape from anyone else. Thank you Tape Resources!"
- Andy Hartman, Cox Communications, Oct 2000

"I can’t imagine why I would ever buy anywhere else, even if your prices weren’t the lowest... which they clearly are!"
- Will Seyffert, October 2000

"Thanks for all the help in getting out the order. You made me and my client very happy. Thanks again!"
- Fred Richardson, Wiley Studios,CA. August 2000

"Your prices are always the lowest I can find, and your on-line store is quite convenient. All I can say to describe your delivery is SUPER FAST!! Thanks."
- Mike Bondoc,. August 2000

"Hey! Thanks for sending me a confirmation. I received the tapes today. Yeah! You are soooo quick. I appreciate that."
- Nadine Piche, Film Scheduler University of California, August 2000

"I placed my order on your web site around 4:30 pm CST on Tuesday, I expected to see the tapes arrive on Friday or Saturday, assuming I might not get the overnight delivery or it would be delayed. I received two e-mail confirmations of the order just a short while later -- very nice. Wednesday morning, just before noon, the tapes arrived via Airborne Express! I ripped open the package -- not only did I get the tapes I ordered, I was also very pleasantly surprised that they were the newer DVM60PR2 (instead of the DVM60PR). Fantastic service, I'll be ordering here again! Thanks!"
- Bruce Adelsman, July 2000

CUSTOMER COMMENTS : JUNE 2000 - JANUARY 2000

"I was looking for a place to buy tapes cheaply on the web, and boy, am I glad I found you guys. Yes, the prices are good, but I'm staying for the service. Before I had a chance to check the status of my order, it arrived at my door!"
- Scott Ableman, May 2000

"Thank you for a job well done. I am very impressed with your company and service. I ordered only 10 tapes but was treated like it was a million dollar order. Thank you again for the treatment and quality your company has given to the little guy."
- D. Scott Gray, 4th grade Teacher, Goldendale WA

"I just like to say I have been really really impressed with your service. The staff was really knowledgeable and helpful to a poor student filmmaker like I am. I bragged about your service to my filmmaking friends, and they were also impressed. I know now that where I am going to get my tapes from now on. Thank you for the great service!!! :)"
- Pilot, May 2000

"Thanks for your service! Blow me away prices and delivery here in Lake Tahoe, Nevada at 12:45 PM. Excellent!"
- Dan, May 2000

"I am a return customer. I loved the next day delivery on my first purchase. That is why I spent an extra few minutes finding your web site this morning. Now I have you in my favorites. You guys are awesome! Keep up the good work."
- Tom Crabb ADC - NVISION, April 2000

"After searching the Internet for MiniDV tapes for a while, I came across taperesources.com, where my search ended. Your prices are THE BEST I found on the Net. Thank you. You'll be my first choice when I comes to re-order new tapes."
- Jakob H.Herrmann, Steeplechase Media, April 2000

"Just a short note to say "Mahalo!" (thank you) for the Kodak DC-200 plus digital camera I won in January's drawing. It was quite a surprise to receive a call from Lisa informing me I had won. The camera arrived on Friday and has already been put to use. Finding Tape Resources on the Internet has been a valuable and convenient resource for my company. Living in "paradise" has it's disadvantages, one of them is finding a economical and reliable source for video tape especially DV tape. With your web site I am able to place an order anytime (when we start our day - yours is half over) and receive the items within 2 days. Also thanks for your enduring excellent service! Aloha!"
- Mike Tsue, Creative Video Concepts, HI, Feb 2000

CUSTOMER COMMENTS : 1999 AND EARLIER

"I started using Tape Resources about a month or two ago - per a referral from one of my crew contacts. Nikki has been a great help and the service is incredible. She was able to save me time and money by recommending different products to me. I just wanted to thank Tape Resources and Nikki for the great job. Your commitment to you customers is obviously a top priority! Keep up the good work!"
- Beth Progar, Ops Mgr, RTN Television Productions

"I am writing to inquire as to the free agent status of the young lady who answers the phone in your office. I would be willing to trade you my office manager, current receptionist and one account manager for her. As I told you over the phone, I find myself in need of a dentist every time I place an order with you guys, as the sweetness of your "phone answerer" is causing me cavities. I know how hard it is to find great associates with good people skills! Please tell her that the weather in Phily really isn't that bad."
- Shannon Slusher, 1999

- Tyrone E., Jumpin Jellyfish

"At least once every few months, somebody from another videotape sales company calls me to solicit our business. And just as often, I explain that we are quite happy with our current tape vendor, thank you very much! They press on, offering discounts, inquiring about unit prices, etc., etc. So I explain in detail how Tape Resources consistently offers the best customer service of any of our vendors, and we're not interested in trying any other tape vendors to possibly save a few pennies.

"One time a man calling somewhere in South Carolina got very pushy, just wouldn't take no for an answer; as I edged closer to escaping his inquisition, he demanded to know what we do when Tape Resources doesn't have the tape we need, I said "That never happens!" I could hear him guffawing as I hung up. Thanks for the great service!"

- Eric Gravely, Planet Vox, Washington DC

"Dear David, I want to take this opportunity to let you know how much I appreciate Tape Resources. For me personally it is extremely important that I always do my best to treat my clients as well as I possibly can. Sometimes this means long hours and tough sessions, but it is my work ethic, and I take great pride in that. But unfortunately , with most persons for whom I am a client, I usually never find this same ethic.... that is except for Tape Resources.
Your staff is always more than courteous: they are honestly friendly! I strongly believe that they are always looking out for my best interest, by keeping me aware of brand specials and making recommendations on how to get the most for my money. Your delivery is always timely....sometimes surprising (I got my last order in less than 2 hours!) and you are impeccably accurate.
Thank you for treating me so well. It's nice to know that someone agrees with me on how to treat a customer."

- Ray Voltz, Senior Editor, Metro Productions, Norfolk, VA

"David, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and Tape Resources for the outstanding job you guys do. I've never been late for a project even though the request for stock comes in at the last minute, sometimes it feels like seconds. Nikki has got to be the friendliest person I've ever dealt with over the phone. There are some days I'm tempted to pick up the phone and call her just to hear a positive voice on the other end. Your price and service can not be beat anywhere. I look forward to continued business in the future. Thanks for everything."
- K. Brown, Baptist State Convention of NC

- Carl G. WDBJ-TV. VA
