"Placed order online for digital camera. Got the dreaded e-mail informing I needed to call customer service to "confirm" the order. Of course that's when I'm told that I need to buy a better battery since the one that comes with it only lasts for 20 minutes. I reply "I've done my homework, the supplied battery last forever". At this point they realize the gig is up, and tell me I ordered a refurbished camera (I didn't) and if I want a "New" camera I would need to pay more. Classic Bait and Switch. I told him no thanks, cancel my order to which they replied "Gladly" and hung up on me. Do not waste your time with this company, unless you want this kind of run-around."
"This company is nothing but liats and cheats. They offer a low price on an item and then try to hard sell you an added product for twice it is worth. If you don't buy the add on they just cancel your order. This is nothing but FRAUD... DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!"
"We received exactly what we ordered for a more than reasonable price. We received the camera within a very reasonable time (about 7 to 10 working days, I don't remember exactly). We have had the camera and have been using it with no problems. The person who I talked to on the phone was polite, did not try any hard sale tactics, and seemed very knowledgable. We are extremely satisfied."
"Attempted to cancel order on morning of 11/11 but was told Order had been shipped. When it had not been received by 11/15, I called and was given UPS #. Checked UPS and learned Order had been shipped at the end of the day 11/11, hours after I had called to cancel. They were very rude and refused to give me RMA number. I refused to accept package and UPS returned it to them on 11/22. On 11/15 I was told I would receive an immediate refund on their receipt of the returned package. They have refused and failed to issue the refund and at various times said they would deduct cnacellation fees, shipping costs which were in excess of UPS charges, restocking fees. I have objected to all of these since I attempted to cancel the Order before it was shipped. I also never received a statement of their charges. Every time I have called, they have given me the run around or said they were too busy to talk. They never gave names and confirmed nothing in writing."
"Beware this vendor! Bought Nikon Coolpix 3200 via website Nov. 24, and immediately called to verify order. Told it was in stock and would arrive in 3-4 weeks. No further word until I called to check status Dec. 9, and was told the product is not in stock and the order is canceled (after I was asked if it was just the camera that was purchased). So since I bought the camera at a low price without the overpriced accessories, they decided not to honor the order but didn't even bother to ever tell me about it. What a fiasco."
"Never to business with this company. After I placed an order for a Xmas Camera, a week later I had a salesman call me to add more equipment to the order. I declined. I call 1 week later, was put on hold 4 times, to ask the status of the order. I am told that since I did not add any additional equipment to may order, then I should call my credit card company to see if they charged for my order. Otherwise they said then my order was chanced, and then they hung up. I called back to speak to a manager, and was repeatedly put on hold and was passed around with no one to talk to. This place is a scam. I have now read all the bad reports. They need to be reported. Stay away from this company and then they will not rip others off."
"Wow. This would have to be the WORST ordering experience I've ever had on the internet. No matter how tempting this site looks DO NOT order from it. I ordered a digital camera from them, the guy called me to confirm the order and asked me if i wanted a memory card to go along with it (cause it didnt come with any memory, though i read it did), so he ask me how much i would pay for it I said $40 , he said ok, its $49, but he would give me for $39. I was suspicioius about that. But anyway so he called me back later saying the card was declined and if I can use another card, I said to cancel the order for now and Iwould probably reorder, then he started to get angry and ask me for the expiration date,etc. Then i said i just want it cancelled, and he said if I cancel it I can't reorder it, I asked y, he said its just so. I said just cancel it then. Then he said if i cancel it and then reorder that he will just charge my credit card but will not send me any camera, then hang up. Anyone that can react like that must not want any business. I say NEVER order anything from this site and make sure anyone you know doesn't."
"I did not purchase a camera because they sent me an email with a purchase confirmation, asking me to call them in order for them to send me my camera. So when I called, they tried selling me additional things. I didn't want additional things, then they tried to hit me with an "insurance" that was never mentioned before. The shipping is already high and now they want to charge insurance because I didn't want to purchase accessories. Sales person kept on giving me prices on the accessories and then making discounts on those prices. "How about $40 for this and that?" The more I said no, the more discounts came along. Anyway, after they got all my credit card and personal information, they cancelled the order. Then they sent me an email saying that the camera is out of stock. These people are frauds. They should be put in jail."

"This site is a classic bait and switch ripoff.
Very low prices are followed by hard sell tactics by one Eric Tursan aka "Scott". Warnings also listed on sheddingsomelight.com
Beware!
