I was looking at Digital Camera, a Sony DSC-H1. I found the ad for Broadway Photo in my photography magazine. I was wondering if anyone has bought anything from that company or heard anything. Because the Sony camera sells for $449 at the Store and on the Sony website, and on their website they sell the Sony DSC-H1 for $319. To me it sounds too good to be true to be over $100 less than everywhere I've seen.

Take a look here:

and here:

And a picture of their storefront:

Repeat after me: If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

my personal experience with them was satisfactory. there was the "confirmation call" where they tried to sell additional products, but there was no problem when i declined. my order was filled completely and correctly at the price quoted and arrived in a timely fashion.

apparently mine was one of the few good experiences to be had...

be well.
