Canon PowerShot A75, Camera business

 

Starlight Camera, www.starlightcameras.com 295 Avenue O, Brooklyn NY 11230, 1-866-722-7209

 

In my opinion, Starlight camera is a fraudulent company. Beware, the good prices advertised are not actually honored as is and are just to bait you in. The website makes sure to mention that

"This and all our products we sell comes with FULL Manufactures supplied packaging accessories software and USA warranty."

 

This was not true in my case. I called and tried to order the Canon PowerShot A75 camera as it comes in the box with included manufacturer supplies. The first time I called, I was given a pressure sales pitch to buy additional accessories for the camera and I politely declined and asked only for the camera as it comes from the manufacturer. The salesman continued with his pressure to buy more accessories but I constantly declined and asked for only the camera as it came from the manufacturer and the guy finally hung up on me.

 

I was put off by this but I decided to call back the next day figuring maybe it wasn't the companies fault and just an employee problem. Well, this time, I spoke to a different guy and this guy was really rude. I told him I wanted to order the A75 as it comes from the manufacturer as promised by the website advertisement and he first told me that nothing else comes with the camera, no memory card, no batteries, nothing. I knew this was not true because I had a list of what was included with the camera from the manufacturer which was

 

PowerShot A75 Body

Wrist Strap WS-200

AV Cable AVC-DC300

Interface Cable IFC-400PCU

Digital Camera Solution CD-ROM

ArcSoft Camera Suite CD-ROM

CompactFlash Card CF-32M

4 AA-type Alkaline Batteries

 

The guy told me I was a stupid old man and didn't know what I was talking about and told me not to call back. I'm actually 38 years old, so I'm not so old, ha.

 

Anyway, I did call back right away. The guy knew it was me, and told me that now the Canon A75's have been sold out. I informed him that he was committing advertisement fraud and I would inform the proper authorities.
