Ordered a Garmin Nuvi 260W online for about $100. Everything went through fine. 2 days later got an email to confirm order over the phone which seemed odd. Also, the english and grammar in the email weren't very good which was another tip off. Called to complete and was told if I wanted to 2009 version it would be $50 more, otherwise I was getting a 2007 version. Not listed anywhere on the site. I refused 4 times, then told it was on 2-3 week backorder. It is not going into the 4th week and I haven't heard anything yet. Checked My Account on the website and it is still listed as on backorder. After checking my credit card to make sure it hadn't been charged I canceled the order online.

Like most of these sites that are too good to be true, it was a complete waste of time.

Same as everyone else.

Bought item online one night. Next day found this website with all the awful reviews. Just like everyone said... I received an email stating I had to call to confirm my order. Phones answered rudely (no, 'hi thank you for calling camera giants, just a muffled 'hello') which was a tip off. After I confirmed my camera order it seemed to be going okay, then he followed with "so did you want the 4 hour or 6 hour battery". Nowhere did it state the $149 camera came without a battery. I was told if I wanted a "kit" with a battery and fast charger it would be $299. The same battery he was trying to sell me was at Best Buy for $40 less. Told him to cancel order and he responded with "fine, it's canceled" then hung up on me.

Complete waste of time.
