I read some reviews, and everybody hates the place. The don't sell you batteries or chargers, which are supposed to come with the camera in the first place. But when everybody called to confirm their order, like the e-mail said, they would be transferred over and over, and people would keep trying to sell them things that come with the camera. In all the reviews that I read, everyone just ended up cancelling after that first phone call, or after not recieving the item after the 4-6 week suggested shipping time.

stay away.
they run the game of you need this and that and this is extra. Oh you dont want that. we will charge your card but it's going to be a while before you get your camera. Oh it's been 3 weeks and no camera. ok we will will charge your card back.

not sure if that's the same company but it sure sounds like them.

Absolutely stay away...

It's been my experience that it's better to pay a little more for the comfort of knowing that you're dealing with somebody with a positive reputation. Always look at the deals offered by "little known" companies... they are little known for a reason.
