I have found that if it hard to deal with a merchant before you make the purchase , it is better to go elsewhere. When you want to give someone business and they are unresponsive initially that is certainly a flag. I am trying to buy a new camera. I don't understand why a vendor wouldn't indicate if there was a warranty and for how long and what, if anything is included in the purchase. I finally found one and they won't ship to PO Boxes. I don't have mail delivery so I have a PO Box. Oh well........

Sheila Anderson - better to go elsewhere. I feel the same way when I call for customer service and don't get it the first time. Second time, another day, a different person makes all the difference. I know longer get stressed and frustrated when that happens. There are better people in the world that deserves me and what I have to offer. If they can't help, next!

Morning Sheila.

Now that you have the data you want, time to find the camera from another vendor.

Do you have a Best Buy nearby, Sheila?  They are a pretty good place to shop for cameras and electronics.  They have reasonable prices usually too.  Or, perhaps, Costco.

Hi Sheila,
Yes, if they are difficult to deal with pre-purchase you can't expect anything afterwards.  As for shipping, do you have a friend or neighbor who could receive the package?

At least your P.O. Box isn't in Hawaii, Sheila. There are many many businesses that refuse to ship anything at all to Hawaii.

And so the quest for a new camera continues.  I like your thoughts on difficult vendors.  Difficult up front means difficult always.
