This photo retailer is a scam. After I placed and order for a Sigma photolens, a representative called me and was trying to sell me on a bogus adpater for 150 dollars. The plastic version made in China lasted 3 months! and the metal version made in Japan would last 10 years.
I cancelled my order because it was clear they were trying to inflate my order with useless items and 1 minute later a guy, pretending to be the manager called on the phone again to apologize because he overheard the sales person. But he said he was manager for BestPrice photo, a different retailer. It is obvious it is all the same operation, disguised with different names.
I also noticed that their kits are overpriced. The main object looks inexpensive but the lenses, digital memory, etc is 2-3 times the price of a reputable store.
