Canon G6 for $379

[huey1124]

A co-worker is looking for a digital camera, and found this website. The website's name is www.bestchoicedigital.com, and all the digital cameras are selling for well below retail. For example, the Canon G6 is selling for $379, and cheapest I found on PriceWatch is $549 (with s/h).

Does anyone have an experience with this vendor? I have never heard of this retailer before, and I don't know if this website can be trusted or not. Thanks.

I'm always a fan of the "If it sounds too good to be true...it is"...but if you try let us know.

BEWARE! They are bunch of crooks that run a multitude of related and ever-changing on-line stores based in Brooklyn NY. Their "too good to be true" prices also attracted my attention. However, I did my homework before ordering:

My advice: call them BEFORE placing any order and you will find out exactly what I did: if it's too good to be true, it probably is."

Lets See Brooklyn NY.

The home of 3000 Digital camera Websites that all link to one or 2 locations.

All of which are usually scams where they remove a critical item such as battery / lens / new item and tell you it's optional or it's refurbished or it's OOS when you try hard.

Good luck OP,
Lets hope it isn't a 'Good' friend

Note : If you really want to buy from New York, check out IbuyDigital.com my friend said her purchase was good from that company and it also happens to be in Brooklyn.

Thanks for all the replies! I told my co-worker to stay away from this vendor. He said thanks to all of you who replied.
