Complaint Review: camerakings.com

Having a very sad experience with camerakings.com... Forget that I got all unwonted things, like not a Sony battery and not a Sony warranty from them including ugly camera bags and a broken card reader plus chip CF card; all of it seems like a needle in hey stag. The biggest problem is lying inside of my new camera! Instead of the new a700 SONY, I got an open box, with no power cord and no battery charger. Fortunately I got charger from SONY store today for $119.99, and figured out that CF slot is broken on my new a700. I tested my CF card on my friends a700, it is working fine. Nothing is wrong with my CF card, but the slot cannot be selected from the menu, and it is constantly flashing with ----- my CF slot is dead as a 'Peace' in the world. On February 15th I got an exchange A700 and today I realized that this camera is broken as well. Viewing pictures is not possible the camera showing first two or three pixels and the rest of image is faded. Downloaded images to PC, and they have a horrible vertical lines. They didnt reimburse me for the shipment as promised in full. I feel cheated and frustrated. Do not recommend to anyone use there services. So I ended up paying more for exchange and brokerage fees for the broken camera, I could get chipper at the local Sony store.

If they refuse to pay me in full for order, I will dispute with my Credit Card, fortunately I already had a similar experience with another company and know what to do. Stay away as far as possible.
