OMG!
Was I a sucker or what? If I had only found this website before I took the bait . . .
I was shocked when I saw the price that Techon Digital offered for a Garmin Nuvi 880 GPS. Shocked and delighted. $399 for a GPS with a MSRP of $800. I went to the website and reviewed the comments made my "satisfied customers" like - Jason P., Memphis, TN

I placed the order online, easily and quickly. I received an email confirming my order and just about as quickly received a phone call from William, my sales associate (800-958-0054 extension 205)also confirming my order, but also offering me such essentials like $200 2G SD memory cards or I'd have to send the GPS to Garmin every year for a month at a time.
I thought the call was odd, considering that it was Thanksgiving afternoon.
When I checked my order history later that night, nothing was entered.
I called on Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) and was assured by William (800-958-0054 extension 205) that the order would be shipped within 48 hours.
And today received the apparently typical message from "Techon Digital" as follows:
We thank you for your order and appreciate you shopping with us .

Due to the product you ordered being out of stock for 6-8 weeks from today's date. We regret to inform you that the order is canceled due to the product being on backorder. when or if we get the product again in stock soon will send you an email to place an order please do not resubmit your order again . sorry again and thanks for your understanding .

Or in other words: SUCKER! At least that is how I feel for doing business with a company like Techon Digital.
