If you are thinking of using Swank AV for youâ€™re next big meeting think again! All they do is up sell everything to you! And not think about your needs. Our company approached Swank to do a big annual meeting; I was quoted just over $5000.00 for the meeting, at the last minute they told us we needed to use certain equipment, and because it was the last minute we didnâ€™t have a choice but to use it. Our final bill was over $15,000.00 at the end. We found out the equipment they sold us was rented through a company called VES. And Swank triples the rental cost from VES to everyone and us so Swank makes doubles the money on the rental equipment. So if you need to rent equipment, just go to VES yourself you will save tons on money. And also go find another Audio Visual company for your meeting. Can you trust a company that is called Swank! And this is too close to Swank AV for our company.

Actually it's no rental company called VES, it's VER. Also, they actually have to markup their prices WHEN they have to re-rent equipment because they have to pay commission to the hotel...upward of 50% so unless they mark-up the price, they would lose money. It's called profit margin- not exactly a new term, but I wouldn't expect you to understand basic economics. Do you complain every time you buy a pack of gum from 7-eleven because they get the pack for wholesale for $.50 and sold it to you for $2.00??

It isn't fraud- its capitalism
