I ordered a Canon 7D on line for $1599. Three days later i receivede a call while visiting Smugglers Notch in Vt
Guy said he had to confirm my order and noted the camera did not come with a CF card. Stated regular cards are not able to work in the camera. I said i wanted a 32g card. He said had a pkg with 2 16g cards. I added a uv filter for the lens. He then said the camera did not come with a separate charger, that the battery had to be charged in the camera. Offered to send a "high speded charger" with adtl battery, then additional items. Then said S&H and handling was $125 but no big deal because i would be saving sales tax. I rejected stating not my problem if the camera arrives damaged or gets lost. He said had to charge. I said CANCEL ORDER, He put me on hold and came back and said would waive shipping. I said e-mail me the adjusted order and i would confirm. No word.
I received the camera Monday. It DID have a canon plug in charger. The so-called hi speed charger is junk. It doesn't work. The additional no-name battery won't charge and the vamera will not recognize the battery. I called Monday and had a run-around, routed twice to sales but had to talk to cust. service. Told to call back after 12PM and ask for xt 225, Did and dialted 225 - no such extension.Called back after several minutes spoke to someonw who transferred me. Then on hold 5 minutes more and man answered for Cust Svc, asked me to hold; i said ok and he transferred me to voice mail. I left a message but needless to say, no response. I am now disputing with Citibank.
