Sonic Cameras Scam...!!!!

I made a purchase from Sonic Cameras and it was a big mistake..!! I went to their website and saw a super low prices Canon Telephoto EF 70-200 IS USB 2.8F for 1199.00. You normally see it priced for 1500.00 or so. I spoke to Robert ( a liar) and told him what I wanted and he sold me the 70-200 for 1199.00 a UV Filter and I wanted a Canon 2x doubler. First he tried to pull me off the Canon 70-200 and sell me a Sigma, I said no thanks, On the doubler he told me he had a a much better one, a professional model that sells for 599.00 he would sell me for 299.00. The canon was 279.00 I said OK. The lens came with the case, cap, lens hood etc. 1843.00 total with shipping and insurance.

When I received my package all was well except the so called doubler was a piece of crap. Digital Concepts sells at Walmart for 79.00. I called up and Robert was no where to be found, the so called "Supervisor" got on the line and I asked to exchange my professional 2x doubler for the cheaper canon. The supervisor said "No' because I bought a package. I told him I didn't buy a package I bought the 1199.00 Telephoto and the 299.00 doubler. He said the 70-200 lens I bought didn't have a mount and was only a lens. And the mount which would allow me to hook up the lends to my camera was 600.00. He said the 70-200 was 1895.00. I noticed on my receipt that there was only one total price and all other items they up sale you to are -0-. He told me he didn't charge me for the pro. 2x doubler and I just bought the package lens.

I knew this guy was so full of crap I even called Canon and they told me they don't even sell a lens that you can't hook up to your camera.

I packaged all of my stuff up and sent it back waiting for a refund and want to WARN EVERYONE to stay away from these CROOKS. They will Lie, bait and switch and rip you off. I will be filing complaints with the FTC, Canon, AG, BBB to let people know about their UN Fair deceptive business practices.


DON'T BUY FROM SONIC CAMERAS.........!!!!
