I entered the store to look for lens for my Nikon camera (was not going to buy). Warning sign
#1: was immediately surrounded by several sales people asking what I was looking for. Then the sales person names Joseph took a lead. He started showing me different options of lens. Warning
#2: he started giving me crazy discounts - up to $100 per item (I thought maybe they don't have too many customers and they are just trying to sell staff to pay their expensive rent at Sawgrass. I have background in retails, and I am aware of margins and price making policy. I understand that the one store can have higher margins as other, but I thing 200% margins are too much. Warning
#3: no prices on display. I actually know it is illegal for the store not to show the price for the customer. You can't see price and you can compare different options of the merchandise. Warning
#4: to cover their fraud they use price stickers that say "kit", so they can use an excuse of their prices being high. Warning
#5: in store exchange only within 7 days (for another super overpriced item). Conclusion: I end up paying $285 (+6% tax) for Bower MC7 2X f/nikon - Digital Autofocus teleconverter, my blood pressure went up when I saw on-line price for this item $158.75 with free expedited shipping from bhphotovideo.com, and I paid for takama tripod 61" - $85 (+6% tax) that retails on-line for $15 by adorama.com. I couldn't believe that this store is still open after so many rip-off reports and complaints. Please avoid buying there if you don't want to be such a scam victim as me.

You agreed to pay a price for merchandise. The merchant honored the agreement. The price of the merchandise at another location is not relevant. You were not scammed. You are suffering from a case of buyer’s remorse.
