Dishonest, Bait and switch tactics.

by fcucu , May 09 '08
My experience involves four attempts to order a Canon Xsi (body only) from Camera Addict. I was attracted by the low advertised price for a US version of the camera and free ground shipping for orders over $100. This camera's list price is $799 on ...

worst online shopping experience ever

by kunde , Apr 03 '08
I believe this is the most dishonest and rude company I have ever encountered. They advertise free shipping, and when one completes the order and payment process online, one gets a screen showing the total, which is exactly the price of the item, with no ...

Bait and switch- Don't buy from cameraaddict.com

by frankiekm , Jul 25 '08
Camera addict is a master at bait and switch. They advertised the camera I had been looking for for $269.00 but when I added it to my cart it was $279. I thought it was a clerical error but the price was still good. I ordered a battery charger for $40. ...

Camera Addict/Broadway Photo same bullying companies!

by firefightr , Feb 24 '08
Camera Addict is the same company as Broadway Photo, both "recommended" when you search for cameras on Google. Google should stop that immediately!!! I'm sure there is an advertisement fee or some profit Google is making, but I wish they didn't give ...

Do not buy from this seller. Their products are primarily Japanese so do not order unless you speak it. Furthermore, after placing your order, they require you to call the store. They are pushy and end up just taking your money. Please disregard other reviews for this store because all they try and do is rip you off.

I was quite plesed with the website and ease of ordering my camera. I was surprised that I needed to call the company to "verify" my purchase. It made no sense, as no information was given that was not already with the order. Even more surprising was the camera was delivered the next day (I did not ask for nor pay for expedited shipping). However, when I opened the Panasonic box the camera comes in, I was surprised that it was totally in Japanese. The operating instructions, which appeared to be a mass produced photocopy without hard cover, was for "panasonic-europe" with all support sites and phone numbers in England or Ireland. If I had known this, I might not have pruchased this camera from Camera Addict.
