"I ordered a Canon digital camera that they claimed was in stock. I got an email saying I must call them to verify my order and when I did I was told I needed to buy a second battery or a memory card. I told them NO, I didn't need these items and they said then my order was cancelled.I guess the purpose of this company is to sell add ons and if not they cancellyour order."
"DigitalSuperDeals.com is the offender.
Ordered one Canon ZR-850.
Called as requested to confirm order.
Tried to up-sell me a $125.00 battery.
I requested that they ship the camera.
Was actually cursed and hung up on.
Called back to cancel the order and was told I was being charged a fee of 35%.
I canceled my card before they could strike.
A really bad show of internet commerce.
This outfit is one to avoid.
"
"I still think that this seems to be a dodgy company even though in the end I could cancel my order without problems (I did not get an email confirming my cancellation, however. The person just said when I called "O.K. We'll cancel it".) That was a day later, after I had tried to call to confirm my order as was requested by the return email after my order. When I had got through, the guy had tried to sell me other things but when I was not interested hung up on me. Also, as I wanted to confirm the two day shipping I had paid for, I had called again and he hung up on me right away. I did not get through to anyone that same day wanting to cancel my order, so I cancelled my credit card... A waste of time and money!
"
"thedigitalnerds.com are the same company . I had the SAME experience as most on here . They are a scam ! Tried to sell me every extra part for a Canon Elura 100 . They hung up when I wouldn't go for the hard sell. Had a hard time canceling my order.HOW IS IT POSSIBLE FOR THESE GUYS TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DO BUSINESS ONLINE ? What is our recourse to deal with these crooks?"
"Same story. I wish I had seen this before.
I called to confirm and he tried to sell me a memory card because "it don't come with one". I told him I already had one and he then tried to sell me a battery. I told him no thanks I just need the camera.
He then tells me it's refurbished and asked if I wanted an upgrade. So I go to look at my order and he starts yelling at me. I told him to cancel my order and he said he did. I'm still going to cancel my credit card just to be safe.
DON"T BUY FROM THIS GUY."
"DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH Digitalsuperdeals.com.
You will find stuff, do your check out... and then be required to CALL for confirmation.
Upon calling, a rude salesperson, the owner, will tell you that you miss some components in your order and IMPOSE additional products on you. Your total will increase by 40%.
If you refuse, you will be insulted (for no reason). The salesman will tell you you shall be charged 20% of the order for a ''cancellation fee''.
The only FEE I paid was to with my bank, to block immediately my credit card...
Worst experience ever with a reseller."
" I have never written a review before, but my experience was so unbelievable, I had to warn others to never do business with this company.
Like others, I ordered a camera and was told to call to confirm the purchase. I received the call on Sunday night and was told the camera came with a 20 minute battery and no memory card. Within a couple of minutes my $ 358.99 order was over $600.
I stated I wanted to think about it and we would talk on Monday. With this comment the salesman got mad and told me that was not possible and called me an idiot. With that comment, I tried to cancel the order and was told that was not possible and called more names.
I hung up and he called back and threatened legal action if I did not proceed with the order amidst more name calling. I welcomed him to proceed with any action deemed necessary but I will not be held hostage and the order stands canceled.
I am contacting my credit card company and the BBB.
I wish I had researched this company before wasting my time and peace of mind.

"Buyer Beware - I placed an order for an Olympus SP550 digital camera. Told to confirm order by calling. Item is listed on site as available. Once I called, at no time was I asked any questions pertaining to the validity/security of the online order. Instead, I was asked to purchase additional unnecessary items that I did not need or want. When I refused these items, they hung up on me. I called back to confirm shipment and was told that the item was available and would arrive within 5 days. Shortly after, I get an email that they cancelled the order due to not being available. Don't waste your time with this place. They either are completely clueless as to what they have in stock or utilize marked up pricing on accessories to make up for advertised pricing. The FTC has rules governing the sale of items via the internet. I will be forwarding my concerns about this company to them."
"Horrible experience. The customer service rep was rude and tried to force me into buying accessories. He hung up on me."
"I ordered a Canon digital camera that they claimed was in stock. I got an email saying I must call them to verify my order and when I did I was told I needed to buy a second battery or a memory card. I told them NO, I didn't need these items and they said then I was going to get a refurbished camera or I had to pay $100 more then their site said. I told them that there is nothing on their site about the item being refurbished and they said that either buy the accessories or take the refurbished camera or they would cancel my order.
They are fraudulent and use bait and switch tactics, STAY AWAY FROM THEM. They are the worse company I have ever come across!"
"This company is deceptive and rude. After placing an internet order they require you to call them so they can push other products on you. When I refused to purchase and ask that they proceed to process my order or cancel, the guy said okay I'll cancel. When I called back to speak with someone else, they seen my order notes and said te product is not in stock, even though the website stated differently. I do not recommend doing business with this company."
"BUYER BEWARE......STAY AWAY.....BAIT AND SWITCH!!!!
Saw a few bad reviews, but tried my luck anyway....BAD CHOICE.
THis company will commonly advertise a refurbished product, then try and sell you accessories. If you do not buy, they (with an attitude) will tell you its not in stock. Your order will be canceled if you don't buy the more expensive new product or some WAY OVERPRICED accessories...
FRADULENT ONLINE SELLER!!!!!
BEWARE, BEWARE.

"I called to verify that the advertised camera was new and in stock - yes and yes.
I then placed my order online (their requirement), received an email confirming the order and reqesting a call back to complete the order.
I didn't opt for any of the offered accessories.
moments later I got an email stating the camera was out of stock and my order cancelled."
"A great price on a panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 digital camera but if you refuse any of the over-priced accessories (like a 119.95 528 SD card that you can buy for $5 on Ebay) they will cancel your order. I was told that the camera would not work without buying their memory card. (the 1st lie). I was then told that the camera was used and came with no warranty or accessories and I could upgrade to a new one for a higher price. When again I refused I was hung up on and received an email later that day stating the camera was out of stock so my order was cancelled and for me not to replace the order.....
"Due to the product you ordered being out of stock for 6-8 weeks from today's date. We have cancelled the order . 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 ."
So unless you have nothing better to do that to have losers try to scam you for your hard earned money I suggest staying away from this company.
DIGITALSUPERDEALS.COM and
THEDIGITALNERDS.COM are the same company.
Both practice fraud in advertising and sales practices.
Save yourself the headache and stay away!!!!"
"Ordered Canon A550, when I called and "confirmed" and told them I did not want accessories because I have them from earlier camera they hanged up.
