I ordered two Garmin Nuvi 880 GPS' from TechonDIGITAL as they had the best price $399 each when everyone else was selling it for $550 and up. I should have known that it was too good to be true.

After receiving the confirmation email, I quickly received an email asking me to contact "William" at extension 205 to confirm my order. William proceeded to verify some information and then tell me that I will need to order a Class 6 SD card for the unit. I told him that I have plenty of the SD cards around for my photography work. He insited that I needed a "special" unit. I told him, "No thank you." He then said that, although the normal price for this card was $200, he'd sell me one "below his cost" for $149. I asked him why in the world they would lose money to do that. His answer? "Because we would want you to have it." I told him no, I'll do OK without it and he said that I wouldn't be able to get any maps or upgrades without it. He said it was necessary. He was pushing hard.

After I held to my desire for only the units, he abruptly said "Enjoy your GPS." and hung up the phone. The next day I received an email saying that they were out of stock on the units and are, therefore, cancelling the order.

SCAM!!! I purchased the units from another source. The card is a convenience, not needed, and they don't even have to be Class 6 cards.

Stay away from these folks!

I was originally going to order a Samsung LN46A850 from Butterfly Photo as their price was the best I could find. However, I decided I wanted the newer 9-Series model and shopped around for the LN46A950.

I found ElectroZone and was impressed with their prices and how similar they were to Butterfly Photo. I placed my order online and was contacted the next day to confirm my internet order. Unlike some other unscrupulous websites where they try to upsell you or else they cancel (happened to me for a Garmin Nuvi 880 at TechonDIGITAL - don't ever deal with them!), these folks were friendly and easy to deal with.

Although we had a minor hiccup, they were very professional in responding to my needs and I can't say enough about the quality of their customer service. I would defintely purchase from them again and recommend them to anyone.
