I placed an online order on a Panasonic PV GS-150 Mini-DV Camcorder. The price was very low and I should have know it was a scam. Someone from there sent me an email saying my shipping address was not filled out and to call them. They called me first and after I verified my shipping address the guy on the phone aked me if I wanted to buy a battery and a charger. I said no because they came with a retail box. He then went on to say that I was only buying the camcorder and that it was a new replacement for people who had broke their old cameras. When I said the website said nothing about that he disagreed with me so I brought up the page with him on the phone. He put me on hold real quick without saying anything and didn't return for 5 minutes or so. I told him I was looking at the page and that it said nothing about not being a retail box. He asked me if I wanted to cancel the order and I did indeed want to. TurboBuys are nothing but scammers so stay away. I am pretty sure that TurboBuys and USAPhotoNation ( http://www.resellerratings.com/seller8278.html ) are the same people as well. STAY AWAY from these people, they cannot be trusted and don't deserve business of honest hard working people.
