After I've placed my order, the online confirmation does not give a full description of what was bought. It said "Description coming soon". I got an email confirmation also only listed the order number without a description of the purchase. I then received and email and phone call messages that someone needs me to call them back to verify certain information. I thought it was to verify the credit card before they process the order. Each time I called back, there wasn't a person there to answer the phone. I finally rec'd a call from someone while I was at Disneyland. He asked me if the purchase was a gift and I said that it was for my daughter. He then told me that he wanted to make sure I've got everything that I needed and that if I purchased the battery and flashcard before he processed the shipment, there's a 50% discount and he went on to tell me what I needed and the price. He said the battery was over $100 dollars but I could add it for $58 and then went on to explain the flash card. I opened the box today and what I received in addition to my original purchase, was the following which I googled and found the price as follows from Amazon.com:
- Transcend TS4GCF-133 for $17.85
- CTA DB-BP511 for $13.22
They charged me an additional $196 for the above 2 items, plus a $39 handling fee. The site says, free shipping and usually ships in 1-2 days. They took a few days playing phone tag with me. I'm very disappointed that they took advantage of the season to prey on their customers. Please investigate. Thanks.
