So I ordered a G7 online. Great price! And I tested it out and liked the camera. But they emailed me that I needed to call. So I did. That's when they told me I would need to buy the battery seperately - it wasn't included. So I asked what WAS included. He said, "The normal stuff." "Like a battery?" I said. And he tells me that they don't include batteries in cameras anymore. An extra $230 later, I sit here trying to figure out where it all went wrong.
I called back and they told me that they couldn't list the items I had actually purchased because the order had been shipped. They could only tell me I ordered a "kit." I didn't, but that's besides the point. I have 14 days to return he says.
I called one more time asking to cancel the order because at this point, I don't like them and I don't want to do business with them. But it really did ship and my card had been charged so all I can do is sit and wait for a box of who knows what to show up. Seriously - what did I buy?
I expect a camera with no battery, but will it have a lense? Knobs? A shutter? Are all the componets now charged as separate items? Will I have to purchase them one at a time and assemble them over the years in the way Johnny Cash bought a Cadillac?
Maybe I should just go back to oil painting.
