NIKON SERVICE CENTER opens in SM Megamall

Columbia Digital Star Corporation's (DDSC), the exclusive distributor of Nikon products and the only authorized repair center in the Philippines, has recently opened another SERVICE CENTER in SM-Megamall. 

I see this as an effort of the Philippine distribution to better improve it's after sales service in the Philippines. I am a Nikon user myself and I welcome this development. For somebody living in Binangonan Rizal, this SM Megamall branch is definitely a strategic location.

NIKON SERVICE CENTER Megamall


Aside from product repairs, they also sell Nikon Cameras, dslr's and other gears. I visited the branch last week and requested that I take photos inside but they didn't allow me,instead, the representative said I can just take pictures outside. That after telling them that I want to blog about the place. They even added that it's not necessary since they have a website. taray!!!No VIP treatment here even for a Nikon fanatic like me.

Countless friends and FB contacts asked me as to what to buy--canon or nikon. I have always convinced them to buy Nikon. Last week, another friend asked me weather to get 1100D or D3100. I was a bit apprehensive to recommend  D3100 over the other. But what can I do, I am still a NIKON believer.

I love Nikon.Shifting to dslr has greatly improved my blogging and made me love photography. But I have always been critical of the after sales service of CDSC.
I saw it as another indication of indifference on the part of CDSC on Filipino Nikon users. I hope the opening of this branch will bridge that gap.......and send a clear message to all Pinoy Nikon users that CDSC cares for them too.

  2. magandang balita yan na may service center na ng nikon sa mega dun sa mga naka nikon.

    para sa akin, malaking pagkakaiba yung customer service ng representative kung magpapatulong/magtatanong ka lang sa mga products nila. may mga bagay na hindi na saklaw ng ating pagbili ng kagamitan sa kanila, katulad nalang ng kung gusto mo kumuha ng larawan ng kanilang shop.

  3. strategic talaga jan kasi dadaan ka muna sa place ko bago pumunta jan.. hehe.. dyowk!

    sana meron ka rin pa-raffle ng NIKON.. sali uli ako baka manalo na this time.. haha ;)

  4. Ang sunget non ah!! kabadtrip. Dibale bro, hayaan mo na, baka yon ang instructions sa kanila. Baka may mga trade secrets sila sa loob.

    For me, nikon is just a brand of camera. I'm not a nikonian - I just happen to own a nikon.

    If ever canon man ang cam ko, i wouldn't complain. They make very good cameras, too.

    Pero dude, bad trip talaga na tinarayan ka. Hehehe. At lalong dapat ka mainis kung CDSC warranty yung camera mo, ang mahal kaya! Ang taas ng mark up, compared sa walang warranty.

  5. Hello, Anton! Amf, tarush naman nila ah, Hehehe! Di lang yata nila alam kung gaano kalaki ang market ng mga bloggers at ang kayang gawin nito to improve their market, napakaraming tao ngayon ang nagbabasa nalang ng mga news and info from the internet. Malaking bagay ito para sa kanila, para malaman ng tao yung location ng service center nila. Anyway, tnx for sharing! =)

  20. guys,I am in no way connected with Nikon or Nikon service center.I just blogged about the fact that they opened a service center in megamall para malaman ng iba.So if you have concerns,please go to them.Thanks so much. :)

  21. Wag nyo po sisihin ang Brand ng Camera kasi na sa gumagamit po lahat yan kung alaga nyo po mabuti ang camera hindi po magkakaroon ng problema yan.

    kung sa online seller ka po bibili ng nikon -- sa dbgadgets.multiply.com po alam ko may nikon sealed na din sila kaya safe :)

  22. Nikon Megamall is the worst service center. Not only did I not get value for my money, the lady in the counter (the slim one) is fucking slow. She knew I was in a hurry but she had the nerve to joke around in the back room before getting what I need.

  34. hi,
    I just came back from Nikon Megamall service center.
    My unit is a D3200. I must say that their service really sucks.

    Let me enumerate them:

    1. The way they handle SLRs, they removed everything when they got it from me. When they handled the unit, the service personnel touched the mirror inside the body with his finger as they gave me back the unit.
    2. Their usual reply is they will have a feedback within 10 days which is kind of unacceptable thinking that they should have it in the first three days.
    3. They do not have the part needed locally and they said that it will take 1 month for them to order it. I informed them that if they are selling something locally, they should have all parts available since I just bought the camera late last December 2012 only, barely four months.
    4. The way they handle customers and inquiries in Megamall is unprofessional.

    I am just sharing this since I want to get the sentiments of those who bought the 2 year warranty support of Nikon Coumbia. Please comment. Thanks.

  37. Yup...ang hirap ng after sales ng nikon...my 5100 nikon dlsr malfunctioned last march 2012....i brought it back to store where i purchased it, Henry's Camera shop in quiapo. I bought it last september 2012. the camera is entitled to a 1 yr warranty and their technician daw found out that there's a part needed to be replaced.."auto focus sensor". ang tagal nang parts...sasabihin lang sau, you just need to wait...wait and wait...until the parts become available...anak ng tupa...nakakabadtrip mag follow up...lalo na kung kelangan mo gamitin ung camera mo...

  40. I have been there a month ago... you need to wait for 10 days for the check up.. after ten days they will tell you how much it will cost... (VERY VERY expensive) palinis lang ng lense 2k na siya.. body repair charge is 6k (service pay lang yun) mine is d3100.. tapus plus part pa daw na papalitan it will cost me 24k all in all... tapus yung phone number na binigay nila to contact them hindi gunagana pag tinawagan mo nagriring pero after ng ring parang may magaangat syempre charge sau pero walang magsasalita.. I tried it in 5 diff phones kaya hindi phone ko ang may sira...
    iwan ko kasi yung sister ko na nagpalinis ng lens dun eh it took them 3 weeks to do it.. and it cost her 2500.. eh galing pa kami ng baguio parang lahat lahat ng gastos aabot sa 5k just for the lens to be cleaned...

    and damn the people working there are all RUDE.. specially yung babae... hindi man lang ngumingiti naging camera company pa sila... the person who assist me is yung parang chinese his name is glenn Uy.. he never smile even for a single time while he was talking to me... gosh grabe ang costumer service so poor... sigh!

    sorry sa rant... super hindi lang talaga ako satisfied sa kanila... nga pala 2 months lang ang warranty ng repair nila.. walang warranty ang parts na ilalagay nila.. sigh!!!
