Usaphotonation.com Complaint - SCAMMED BY SELLER - Sony handycam dvd-dcr108

Sony handycam dvd-dcr108 - Complaint
Review by Indykris on 2007-06-15
THIS company should not be still selling anything to anyone. I ordered a SONY HANDYCAM after going to shopcartusa.com for comparison pricing. USAPHOTONATION had the best price at 299.00. AND THE RECENT REVIEWS OF THE COMPANY AT SHOPCARTUSA WERE FANTASTIC. THEY had an overall rating of five stars out of five stars. DUMB ME did not read the OLDER REVIEWS. THIS company sells you the item and then e-mails you to tell you to call them about the order. I was told the camera DOES NOT COME WITH A BATTERY and it would be 89.00 more to add the battery. THEY tried to add insurance too when they offer FREE SHIPPING. I tried to cancel the order and was told it had ALREADY PROCESSED. THEY have a fifteen percent RESTOCK fee for returned items. SO I added the battery and ended up spending 389.00 for a camera they listed at 299.00. THIS CAMERA COMES FROM SONY WITH A BATTERY. THEY were scamming me.

IT irks me that there were so many POSITIVE REVIEWS at SHOPCARTUSA. Either someone is posting FALSE POSITIVE reviews or something is fishy here.
DO not buy from this company EVER. IT will cost you more.

You are 100% right, "someone is posting FALSE POSITIVE reviews". These scam companies manipulate the ratings systems to catch new shoppers as an old customer would never buy from them again. And yes the battery is always included with the Sony Handy Cam. What you should have done was taken just the camera and got the battery from another site as $89 is more than the battery sells for as a replacement. Found this on the first site I checked out, LI ION batt Sony Cameras IP Series $36.67.

YOU are so right. I saw the same battery at BEST BUY for about 46.00. I made a huge mistake going with this company. THANKS for writing.
