Wisetronics
Bait and switch, rip-off, hustle, scam

After ordering, received the email below. Called to confirm and the guy tried to sell me more stuff, I wasn't interested. He tried to say the battery would only last 10 minutes, I still wasn't interested. Then he asked me to hold, another guy got on the line and tried the same thing, this guy said there was no battery at all, again I told him I just wanted the camcorder as the manufacturer packaged it. Then he said it was out of stock. I then told him to cancel the order. He then gave me some line about charging for processing, told him I would contest the charges. He then wished me a Merry Christmas and we ended the call.

As an added note, this hustle was very similar in experience to thedigitalexpo.com

Usually I'm pretty careful about this, I got lazy, next time I'll do more research and check usacomplaints.com
