I just ordered a Minolta Z3 from them. The price was the cheapest I
found online($389 $409 with shipping), but when I called to confirm the
order, the guy wanted to know if I wanted the English version instead of
the Korean version, which he said I ordered...WRONG. He said the manual
would be in Korean language. I said I wanted the English version and
was shocked that they charged me $30 more for an English version. I
think I got hosed, because I'm sure they don't purchase foreign manuals
to sell since their business is in NY.

I suspect you got the same Korean camera, they just charged you $30 for an
English manual. Check it when it arrives.

They're one of the Brooklyn crooks, read all about them on www.photo.net
(Community/photo shops) or www.resellerratings.com, or any of the other
ratings sites.

You are darn right. When it seems too good to be true, it usualy is.

Don R is either a VERY lucky guy ...or a shill for A&M Photo World.

He might be the "half person" that contributes to the 0.51 rating at
resellerratings.com ...or then again he could be just a shill for A&M.

Or, maybe he understands Korean, and enjoys paying for overpriced
accessories, warranties and the like.

Wrong in all cases. I am just a guy in Florida who asks a lot of questions,
and when things do not sound right, offers to cancel the order. Then they
get right in line. But I really had very little issue with them compared to
others I had talked to. I have had some major battles with some of these
crooks. I left no rating for them, and speak no Korean. Just be very careful
with any of these guys and be prepared to walk when things do not sound
right.
