Saw this ad on google. Decided not to post it in hot deals section just yet until it checks out. Anyone dealt with these guys before?

'If it sounds too good to be true...'

Do yourself a favour and always search Google before ordering from unfamiliar websites.

Alright, well pretty bad stuff about the store. So stay away from it. Bait & Switch stuff happening.

I was really hoping that these guys were banking on buyers building up a package with ridiculously priced accessories. A slow, generic 2GB SD card is $130 USD. Wow. A spare ENL-3e battery is $180 USD. Talk about your insane markups.

On the other hand..

Looks like a bad, bad idea to order. :evil:
