BEWARE! I should have trusted my instinct and hung the phone up when Dave was so rude while I tried to place my order. Instead, I let a cheap price cloud my vision. I asked 2-times if this Sony Camera was in stock, and both times the person said yes. Now I find its on back order. I believe because I didn't buy any of their high priced options, they don't want to sell me the camera only. Nightmare, Nightmare, Nightmare. The savings wouldn't be worth the aggravation even if the camera ever did show up. I would never buy from this company again, and from now on I will reseach the company first.  
At 55 I should have known better.  
Stay Away from these people. Hopefully, my credit card information isn't through-out Afghanistan by now.

Delta camera is one of the worst stores I have ever worked with. I place an ordered for a Olympus camera and then they charge for a battery that should have come with the camera. They sent me two batteries and both were the wrong ones. I had to go to another store to buy a battery. When I called them the customer service manger was very rude to me and did not want to help me. They would not put me through to the owner. I then talked to the secretary and he did not give much help. I still have not received the battery they said they would send. I have told my friends not to buy anything from delta camera. I have filled a complaint with the BBB. I will never use this store again.

I placed my order from this company 9/22/2009 and received a confirmation email that said I had to call the company to confirm my order. I was on hold for 1 hr before I hung up, I tried again and it took me 30 minutes before I hung up. The next time I called, I just went straight through sales and the representative told me he needed my 3 digit security code which was already given in the initial purchase. He said I would get a confirmation email again when the order shipped. It's been over a week since the initial order and nothing has happened. I read the rest of the reviews and decided to cancel my order. When I called, I asked the rep why my order had not shipped yet. He said it was on backorder, which seems to be a consistent story for them. I told him I wanted to cancel and told him that everyone had told me different things on the phone. He proceeded to get angry on the phone and said that my order was cancelled and hung up on me....  
 
Don't order from deltacamera.com. I wish I had thought to read reviews prior to ordering from them but at least now I'm aware of sketchy sellers online.

Same story as below...I placed an order with DeltaCamera.com. I didn't order a photo card or anything except camera. On the confirmation call I was told, "you can't take pictures without a photo card". At 4 times the cost of photo cards at local stores, I replied, "no thanks, I can buy that locally." Then I was told "the batteries that ship with the camera will explode and mess up your camera. And they'll only last 15 minutes." I replied, "I already have rechargeable batteries. I only need but the camera." On August 4th, I called when my status still said "processing" on their website. Was told the camera was on backorder for a "few" weeks. On August 6th, I had a friend call and inquire about the same camera. It is in stock and she could have it in 5-8 days. I called back...surprise, surprise..."the camera is on backorder for a few weeks." When I explained about my friend calling, the story immediately changed to "you ordered with a Visa and our Visa terminal is down. It'll be a week before it's fixed." I then spoke to a "manager" (another scammer) and was told the camera in stock was the "retail version" (price over $100 more than advertised on the website) and the camera on the website was the "wholesale version". I asked other than the price, what was the difference. "The retail version comes with a cable and an English Owners Manual. The wholesale version (website) has a Chinese Owners Manual." I asked why the website didn't specify this. He said, "I don't have to say that on my website. You pay for what you get." I cancelled my order. I called Canon to report this dealer. They are not an authorized Canon dealer so there's nothing Canon can do about them. I was also told that if I had ever received the chinese version of the camera, the warranty wouldn't have been honored in the US. I then cancelled my credit card. These people are scum. It is apparent from further research that these people simply change the name of their company when their current name gets a bad reputation. I wish I had found ResellerRatings.com before I ordered from these low-lifes as all reviews sound the same.

"CustomerID# 2337 Thank you for shopping at DeltaCamera.com. Please call Us at 1-877-283-7747 as soon as possible to confirm you order. Your order number is 4179, placed 8/3/2009 at 5:13PM."  
THIS ORDER WAS CANCELLED BY ME ON 8/6/09 WITH CANCELLATION #MUR4179 WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT A CAMERA LISTED AS "USUALLY SHIPS WITHIN 24 TO 48 HOURS" WAS BACKORDERED 3 WEEKS. THEY HAD THE SAME APPROACH AS THE OTHER REVIEWS AND I WILL HAVE TO WATCH MY CREDIT CARD CHARGES CLOSELY.

beware of DeltaCamera.com. Higly unprofessional company. Very rude company. I ordered 2 Nikon Coolpix L100 camera from them through their website. The price they had quoted was $179. I wanted to gift them to my siter in NJ and father who is visting from India. My Order number was 2810 for a total of $369.91.  
The next day I get a call from them to check where I wanted these camera's to be deliverd. I told them to ship it to my sister's place in NJ. I live in NY. The guy then starts to sell me batteries for the Camera, stating that the camera does not come with batteries and there are specially designed batteries for the Camera. I told this guy that let me think I'll call back.  
 
I was recommeded this Camera by one of my friend who recently bought it from Buy.com. I called this friend of mine to enquire if he paid extra for the Batteries, which obviously was not the case.  
 
So I call DeltaCamera.com and tell them just to deliver the camerera's. Now they come with another story that my order is in back order and that I would get the camera in 3-4 weeks time. I confronted them stating that they had written on the web that the camera ships in 24-48 hrs. the sales rep just started arguing with me without any rime of reason. When i told them that cancel my order and I'll write a review on their company and how they misrepresent themselves, then comes their supervisor, who comes with another story that they a person can order only 1 camera and that too they can deliver in NY where the billing address of the card is. Which is all a balony. They didnt have the camera or they had the camera but did not want to sell it without cheating the customer into buying batteries for $50/-.  
I would like all the customer's to be careful of these fraud companies like Deltacamera.com. I learnt a lesson that, it's better to pay $20-30 more, but one should buy from a reputable company.  
 
PLEASE PLEASE BEWARE OF DELTACAMERA.COM.

Same story as all the others here. Ordered Canon PowerShot from deltacamera.com, then got a call telling me I really needed a $120 battery... when I refused, battery price was knocked all the way down to $40, free case and 2GB SD card offered, "take it or leave it". I said "leave it" and they said threatened to charge a 25% restocking fee. I have now put my credit card on hold.

OMG! STAY AWAY FROM THESE GUYS! MAJOR RIPOFF! I WAS FORCED TO CANCEL MY CREDIT CARD SO I WOULDN'T BE CHARGED!  
 
THIS IS THE EMAIL THEY SEND:  
 
"Thank you for shopping at DeltaCamera.com. Please call Us at 1-877-283-7747 as soon as possible to confirm you order. Your order number is 2369, placed 7/2/2009 at 12:07PM."  
 
When you call back to "confirm" they try every scam in the book! When you try to cancel they just hang up!

Offered a Garmin Nuvi 760 as new. When I received it it was rebuilt. And of course it is starting to fail again. They also promised a screen protector which did not come with the unit.

I ordered the Camera then got this response:  
 
URGENT,For Security Purposes, In order to process your order please call 1800-598-3211 or 1888-598-3211 to confirm your order. Please note that your order will appear on your credit card statement as wholesale genius. Thank you for your order.  
 
When I called they tried to sell me extra battery and SD card for hundreds, then when I said no they said the screen language was in Japanese (even though it was advertised as US model) and if I paid extra they would give me the US version. When I cancelled my order he just hung up!!! So I cancelled my CC immediately. When can something be done about fraud of this kind. STAY AWAY!

I ordered a GPS from BigCameraDeals.com. They tried to sell me the "current map set". Garmin provides the current map set free for all new GPS's. That should have been my first clue. My order was placed based on their promise that the GPS was in stock and would ship the next day. That was over a month ago and it still is on "backorder from the manufacturer". A previous call to them resulted in a promise to ship with the week. Today's call was "no commitment". So I canceled the order and asked for an email confirmation. They said that could take up to 24 hours. I gave him my email address and asked for a simple note confirming the order had been canceled. He kept saying it would take 24 hours and finally hung up on me. BEWARE of the BigCameraDeals.com scam!!!!!

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE!! SCAM BAIT AND SWITCH!! Long boring story. Tried to upsell rediculously. I refused any of their stupid sales tricks. They said item in stock. 10 days later no shipping. Called, long long on hold, guy says back order can't say when. I say "you don't have any intention of shipping this item". He laughs and says cancelled and hangs up the phone.

I also received the e-mail that said I had to call to confirm my order. I tried and tried for two days but could not get through. After reading other reviews, I decided to cancel my credit card. Did not want to deal with such a bad company.

This seller is horrible. I ordered a Garmin 760 on 12/3/08. I discovered on 12/5/08 in their automated email that I had to call in to confirm the order before it would be shipped.  
 
12/5/08 I called and they tried upsell me to a more expensive mode. When I declined they said the order would be shipped out the next day.  
 
After several days of checking on my order status via their site I called back on 12/9/08 and was told it would ship the next day. Again I was offered the upsell but this time is was only 20.00 more, not the 159.00 previously offered. I took the upgrade. (They said they were out of stock on my original order.)  
 
The order finally shipped on 12/12/08 via UPS ground. It arrived on 12/18/08. The unit was Dead on Arrival. Now I have to send it back.  
 
I will give them points for paying for the return shipping.

I will never buy from this store again. Never. I bought a Kodak M1033 from the store because the price is attractive and the website (and the operator I called) says that it's in stock. No true. I heard nothing from the store after I gave them the 3-digit code on the back of my credit card. No idea when or if the camera was shipped to me. I called back about 30 times every day for the next few days -- both numbers were busy. When I got ahold of someone on Saturday, I was told to call back on Sunday. Line was busy on Sunday. I called over 50 times today (Monday), got someone who hung up on me after I gave him the order number. Then tried calling for another 10 minutes and finally got through again -- they told me the camera is on back-order and (WHEN I ASKED) told me that it won't be available until after the holidays. I ended up buying the same camera on amazon for $25 more, but it's so worth it. When was the BigCameraDeals going to tell that it would not be able to fulfill its "usually ships in 24-36 hours" representation had I not called to check? By the way -- the site still says "usually ships in 24-26 hours" although it knows that it currently does not. Beware.  
 
I read the good and bad posts below prior to making my order. My instincts also told me that this website is fishy. I guess I was fore-warned, but I rationalized it by thinking that the fact that some people had bad experience doesn't mean that it's a bad place to shop. I should have listened and trusted my instinct.
