I am a 100% service-connected disabled Veteran. Since I am unable to get out to shop I do most of my shopping online. I purchased a Panasonic PV GS500 mini camcorder from Stop 4 Camera on Saturday morning Nov 25th. for 589.00 +39.00 for 3 day shipping. When I called to verify order on Monday Nov 27th, it took some time before I could get someone to speak with. I found that if you do not buy any of their accessories they do not want to sell you the item. The site states that they have this item in stock, but when I declined the accessories, they stated that my order would take 4 to 6 weeks for delivery. I was buying this online with a Visa credit card which is in good standing. I also paid for 3 day shipping, but this is also a line because they offer 3 day shipping but then stated it would take 4 to 6 weeks for delivery. I had to cancel the product because I am taking my family to Florida on December 22nd and cannot wait that long.
a trusted site should not be advertising for business' who have deceptive practices. As a soldier permanently scarred and unable to work fighting for my country, I am saddened by the fact that I fought in part to allow the freedoms our nation delivers so that companies like Stop 4 Camera can take advantage of deceptive online ads to pull in customers. It’s a disgrace to see companies like this exist. I know it must be difficult to manage and maintain good companies to buy from online sites, but someone should accept some responsibility for providing space to companies that use deceptive practices.
Stop 4 Cameras online ads that are deceptive and not true. I can show you a copy of my bill of sale from Saturday just to prove this company is bad news. and ultimately had to cancel because they told me I couldn't have the item for 4 to 6 weeks. If you do anything about this, I wish two things; 1. to stop advertisers like Stop 4 Camera from advertising deceptively,. and 2. To provide good informative, truth in advertising, and best deals on the net for folks like me to buy on the net.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope it helps.
By the way, every site these bad companies advertise on, usually pay on a per click basis. So when you see these sites that show 30 different companies and places like stop 4 show up, just click on the site and keep closing the link as many times as you can afford to sit there and waste your valuable time. these companies have to pay that site for every time you click on their link.
