Hello,

I went to this store with my family to buy post cards. A clerk called Gino pick me up and started to pursue me buying a radar detector.

I said no but he insisted looking at the device. He lied all the details (undetectable, battery operated etc) and began to show the price instead and reducing it. From 799 he went to 599 and quite quickly to 499. I still said no and he went away. The other clerk whispered to me that this was a very good price. Gino came back and said, ok, as you are the first customer of today, I'll give it for 399 and the rest of the goods (a very over priced 137 Lumix camera battery, a t-shirt and the 20 postcards) for free.

As being experienced traveler (40 countries) and never cheated before in even very odd countries and circumstances I really regret my tiredness (we just flew in a night before) and jetlag that I did not recognize the con.

After returning home I checked the price level in the internet and found out this KAT DLS315 would normally cost around 50!!! And as a climax I used the "detector" the first day in Finland and got caught by the police: fine for using the device 1600! That is 2370...

I'm so pissed of to be frank. And it does not comfort me that I found numerous writings in the internet of similar happenings. (1st attempt from Google:)

Please shut down this shop immediately and start paying people their losses, if only you can. And arrest the personnel. I can confess.

All the prices at the shops' goods are twice to ten times more than appropriate and the clerks are lying.

This is a shame for NYC. Such a shop at such a location!
