I placed an order from these guys yesterday for buying a digital camera
(CANON EOS digital rebel XT- Black Color). They gave me the lowest
price of $599. Then, next day somebody from their shop called me that
the package doesn't come with the battery and the charger of the
battery and i need to pay about 2 x $129 = $258. I accepted it, then
found out these guys are really CROOKS!

I called my credit card company to stop the transaction and i am going
to call the better business bureau to revoke their license. Also, i am
calling FBI to arrest them, each and every one of them.

Regards,
Nushin

You got it.... or rather they got you.

I've heard this story over and over.  The agreed to price with assumed
accessories.  This shill has been going on for ever.

About 2 years ago ABC documented NYC electronic stores doing this exact
same thing.  Buyer walks in, sees what they want, agrees to buy, and
then they tell the buyer that "If you want to use it, you gotta have a
battery. And oh by the way it;s rechargeable, so you'll need one of
these."

It's ashame that we treat each other so badly.

GO GET THEM.

I'm sure you can pull in telephone fraud, mail fraud, interstate
fraud......keep on going.

Wouldn't they let you cancel the order when they told you about the
battery?

After you'd accepted the addition, what happened to make you decide
they were crooks?
