Digital Depot sold me a digital video camera for 901 Dollars that I later found out was priced at 135 Dollars in Macy's absolute rip off New York New York
On a recent visit to NYC, my wife and I wanted to purchase a Video camera so that we could have happy memories of New York City.
We were enticed into a camera store on Broadway (Digital Depot 1632 Broadway) and were sold an AUDIOVOX MPEG4 digital video camera with spare battery for $901.
When we got back home to Scotland we looked it up on the internet and were shocked to see the same model for sale in Macy's store for $189.
This is an absolute rip off.

As you now know, the world is chocked full of frauds and con men ready to pounce on any perceived disadvantage.
It's certainly a disadvantage to be out of your element. Foreign city. Tourist with a scottish accent.
Right now, cheap digital cameras start at less than $100. Not knowing that, you chose to rely on the word of a salesman. That's always a mistake.
This kind of thing always leaves the person more suspicious of situations in the future. Look at it as a learning experience. First time. Last time. Only time.
