    I wouldn't buy a camera from this company if it were the only trail cam company! I had a camera die after 1 season. The warranty had expired. I called them and they said" take it to a camera repair shop". I asked for some type of discount on a new camera, NO., I asked to send it the broken camera, NO
    Great customer service!
    Dont waste your dollars on this company! There are many better options!

    Stick with a company that has a well known reputation. Sorry to hear about the camera.

    I've had the same problems with their cameras. I've bought 3 in the past 4 years , same thing with you not long after the 1 yr warranty the camera crapped put. Apparently it's time for an upgrade in camera's. and thank you for this post because I was going to start one today after this past weekend my third one died .

    They are junk!!! I fully agree and horrible customer serv etc!!!!! Thats if you get someone on the phone!! Coverts are great i agree but when your running 15 cameras and people have sticky fingers thats also a problem!!! People steal so its 6 in one hand half dozen in the other!!! I will discontinue running cameras before i purchase another wildgame cam... They are at best " disposable" products and there television show is ranked just above the " kardashians" in my opinion but thats just me!!! " bowhunter brown" ur lucky u got 4 years out of it i bet u cant find 4 other people u dont know who can say the same!! Just my thought nothin personal bud

    Bushnells are really great cameras and for under $200 (HD model). I have three and they are dependable, easy on batteries, and good pictures/recovery time. JMO.

    yeah i bought one two years ago and it will be my last. They aren't any cheaper than the others and i always have white outs in all of my card pulls. not to forget they are junk compared to other cameras nowadays. Stealth cam or covert is definitely the way to go.
