I purchased the sony dsc-h1 digital camera from this site with my credit card. The price was $399 no tax and $9 shippping. Pretty good. I placed the order on
September 14. "USUALLY SHIPS 3-5 DAYS". I had hoped to get my camera on or a little after the 22nd because that was my birthday. Unfortunatly, that didn't happen. I had email'd them, they appologized, and said they would foward this to the opperations manager to speed things up. Today is September 30. I had got a message stating it is leaving October 1st. I've checked the site recently and also noticed the same camera had gone up $100 ($499). I've read lots of good reviews on audiocubes.com some saying "the site is easy to navigate through" or the "quality of products match the great prices" which are all very true. When it comes to expecting delivery times, my opinion, don't count on it. Maby if there was a little more communication, better response time, I probably wouldn't be so bitter. At least it was a good price. Hopefully when the camera does get here, its all in one piece, or I'll be writing another review on here. d(0-0*)b

So after many forum posts and replies, I found out that my camera is only in JAPANESE! Audiocubes website says
"Are products carried by Audio Cubes Japanese models? Will I be able to operate them?"
All of the products we carried are Japanese domestic models unless stated otherwise. While some of our products such as headphones and earphones are fairly intuitive (plug and play) to use, all of our Japanese electronic products operate through English interface (some with English operation manuals). We do not sell products that our customers cannot use (operation will not involve any knowledge of Japanese).
Well, I guess I'm going to have to translate the menu on my camera on my own because audiocubes just said
"I am sorry that all our manuals are in Japanese,
however, you may try asking the question in our Discussion Forum;
http://www.minidisct.com/forum/index.php, and someone may give you
some
advice.
Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience."
So, unless you know Japanese, don't buy a digital camera from here.
