SCAMMED. DO NOT use a company that asks for you to call back and confirm an online order. It creates an opportunity for them to use high pressure tactics to purchase accessories. Unless you have researched all the prices of the accessories, you will likely get sucked in and make an ill-informed purchase. These guys flat out lied.
I used this company because of someone's ratings. So much for ratings. As other have experienced, I got the high pressure sales to buy accessories and they flat out lied.
1. they claimed the battery shipped wih camera was not a high grade battery and I needed a high capacity battery. LIE. I wanted an extra battery and received an IDENTICAL battery for $99.99 (available on the internet for $21.00).
2. they claimed that I needed a higher capacity storage card and one that would handle the speed needed for video. LIE. I wanted an extra card but the one I received was the same speed (the fastest) that came with the camera. I paid $109.99 (available on the internet for ~$68.00).
3. Shipping, handling and insurance was not broken down. If shipped via UPS, item can be insured for $500. $40.01 seems too high to me for a small package.
If you have to call an online order company to confirm your order. DON'T do it. They are very good at high pressure selling.
