Just be careful. They are known for selling really low quality products and used items as new. Since your camera is name brand you won't get low quality. But make sure you camera comes in it's box with all of it instruction manuals and accessories.

Check the BBB rating of the seller. I had to threaten a small claims lawsuit against one company last year. No promised delivery date. Ordered for Christmas last year. No word from them until the day after I canceled the CC Payment, then they shipped the day after. They showed the CC company the item shipped. I had already ordered elsewhere in time for Christmas. Only the threat of legal action got my money back.

You don't want to deal with online scum.

Sorry about your bad experience.

I always use VISA.

I once reversed a $5,000 VISA dentist bill after 2 years.

His lousy implant work had to be redone.

Therefore, if the camera does not come within 10 days, I lost only time, not money.

I'll keep you posted.

P.S. There are lots of deals on the net at about $110.

P.P.S The item was shipped USPS and I have a tracking number.

Beware there is a issue in the low price camera market where sellers sell OEM cameras. They don't have firmware, and want more money to put the firmware on.

My CC did reverse the charge and gave the company a chance to respond. They shipped and waited till there was a confirmed delivery from UPS ( you can't refuse a delivery before it is delivered ) and UPS dropped it on my porch when I wasn't home. The company simply claimed "Delivered". It took a fight with the return as they lost the return. It took lots of screen caps and stuff with the return to get anywhere. Finally the threat of litigation broke the dam. The company has an F BBB rating, which is why I recommend checking the seller with the BBB before placing an order. This is not the same company you ordered from. My order was for stage lights.

By the way, your company has a better rating than the company I did business with.

It came today via Post Office.

One thing, no memory is supposed to come with it.

(Says so in the instructions).

$11.28 for Sandisk 4 GB SDHC memory card, problem solved.

i happen to have a 2 GB card in my other camera and the Casio seems OK.

I can hardly wait for the 1,000 fps shots.

Battery is charging as I write.

Therefore, for just $111.27 you have a 4 GB 1,000 fps camera in your spud gun hands to play with.
