1/5

posted Nov-05-2004
Ordered a DSC-P100 from the site on October 3rd, 2004. Called the next day to "expedite" the order. After getting the "you need the accessories" pitch, I still declined and was told it would ship in 21 days. None of my email was ever answered. 22 days later I received an email stating my order was cancelled. Calling about the order, they flat out lied to me and told me that I had called and cancelled the order.
Well, I should have left it at that and ordered from someplace more reputable. But being tempted like an idiot by the low price, I gave in to the accessory package. This raised the price of the camera over $100, but supposedly included an extra battery (in addition to the included battery), a case, a cleaning kit, and lcd screen protectors.
Surprise, surprise, the camera arrived 5 days later, but the supposed extra battery was missing.
I buy probably 90% of my major purchases on the internet, and this is the worse experience ever. It's ten times worse than the run arounds you sometimes get on ebay. I can't even consider this a 'business'. It's a scam. I'm filing a formal report to the BBB of NY.
