Sony MZ-B10 MiniDisc Voice Recorder Reviews
This item is great, I gave it to my girlfriend so that she could record her choir's performances in Ireland. It produced excellent sound, has good battery life, and a reliable onboard mic. I used SoundForge to transfer the audio to my PC and edited from there for a compilation CD. For the product, I say A+. However, after trying to purchase it here and striking out, I ended up going with JR Electronics, who I fully recommend.br /br /On Monday, June 5, I ordered the Sony MZ-B10 from Warehouse Deals, an Amazon.com subsidiary that handles all their returned, refurbished, and overstock merchandise. At 0, I was saving off the lowest advertised price (and it lists for 9). After selecting the expedited shipping option, a package arrived on Friday (well within their advertised time for expedited shipping).br /br /Upon opening the package, however, I discovered that they sent me someone else's order. I received two adolescent psychology books that should have gone to Los Angeles.br /br /Figuring it would be a simple matter to send my package back, explain the situation, and get my minidisc recorder, I was then told that they could not send me the MZ-B10 because they only had one. More surprisingly, they told me that even if they recovered the item, they could not pass it back to me, but would instead sell it again on Amazon.com. While refunding my money, they explained that because of their error, there was no possible way for me to get my purchase.br /br /After speaking to a manager at Amazon.com named Eric, he gave me a 0 promotional credit towards an Amazon.com purchase. With my 0 refund and the 0 credit, I could then purchase another MZ-B10 for 0 (new) and have for my trouble. Unfortunately, I discovered that the promotional credit I received was not good in the whole Amazon.com Marketplace, and that the MZ-B10 is not available directly through Amazon. br /br /After speaking to another manager, named Nikki, I was told that there was no possible way a credit could be issued that would be good throughout the Amazon.com Marketplace. This, despite the fact that I am a frequent Amazon.com Visa user, and am aware that their reward certificates are good throughout Amazon.com, partner vendor or not. She refused to change my promotional credit to a reward credit.br /br /While I have been a frequent and loyal Amazon.com customer for many years, I will not be patronizing them in the future. The fact that they can allow a subsidiary to sell me a product, not deliver it, and if they recover it sell the item again, is just unacceptable. While I appreciate the 0 promotional credit, and am glad that my money is being refunded, what I really want is the item, which is going to cost me no less than more, take me more time, and isn't even available directly from Amazon.com (which makes the 0 credit pretty useless).br /br /Thanks for nothing Amazon.

Ilike the auto bookmark feature and the 3+ hour recording times. Very simple to operate. Pretty good battery life on AA Batteries.
