Default Avoid "model-8" for CF cards (dbay seller)

Now you know the reason why 'sleaze-bay' is such a fine thing to use.

Had you placed your order with B+H Photo, or KEH (in Atlanta) or even
Wal-mart, you would have the option of making a return.


Maybe. I bought a Compact Flash reader at B&H. It claimed to be
compatible with Win98, but I could not get the driver installed, even
after going to vendor's website. B&H couldn't help and wouldn't give a
refund because I had to cut the blister pack to open (which was the only
way to remove the product). So the reader didn't work as promised and
B&H wouldn't refund. Yeah, the reader was inexpensive, but it left a
sour taste in my mouth. I've bought big ticket items there before, but
I'll look elsewhere next time.
