1/5

posted Oct-26-2007
A price too good to be true, so I called their number rather than use their website. Tried to pressure me to buy high priced accessories (expensive batteries, lenses, memory, chargers) beyond the basic exceptionally priced, but no doubt gray market, camera. I did not bite. After I relented they placed the order for the camera, they said someone would call back within the hour to take my credit card. They still have not called back (5 days later). When I called their accounting department, they said that the camera was on indefinite backorder although the original sales person indicated that they had stock. I caught several other lies regarding the original salesperson, I checked on the 'packages' he was trying to sell, and they differed from the website. No doubt I would have gotten the lesser, but that is a presumption.
They have plausible deniability regarding all their practices, I am sure they are carefully skirting all the interstate trade laws; violating the spirit, but not the letter; not worth pursuing?
Stroke of luck for me that I never provided them my credit card? For them to take it would mean they have to deliver within 30 days ...
