MelloDigital is a bait and switch scam. They lure you in with low prices and then try to sell you something more expensive, and if you don't comply, your order ultimately gets canceled.
I ordered a camera lens and some batteries on November 26. The website specifically said the items were in stock. I got a call back the next business day saying the item was on back order. They asked what kind of camera I had and said they knew all about that model. They also said this more expensive lens was better and I should buy it. I said "no thanks, I'll just wait for my order". I also mentioned that the website said the items were in stock, and the person said "it was wrong".
Several days ago my credit card was charged. My order status said "ready to ship" for several days, and today, December 23, they sent me this, after waiting weeks for my order.

Don't shop from these bums unless you want a lot of hassle for nothing.
