Good Sservice and honest advice. I do not uunderstand the bad reviews these guys are getting. I went in despite the bad reviews and received very good advice even though I only bought a battery charger for my Canon EOS 5D. I ended up buying a lens cap and UV Filter as well. They mad nice compliments about my lens as well. Two days later I called to compare their price with Amazon for a Tamron zoom lens. They said they had the lens but it would not work well with my camera. I nearly busted $654 at Amazon. I think these guys are good and honest. I most certainly will be back if I need any photographic equipment whilst in San Francisco.…
DON'T BUY FROM DISCOUNT CAMERA!.
DO NOT BUY FROM DISCOUNT CAMERA.
Last year when I was in the market for a DSLR, they quoted me a price for a NikonD90 that was about $400 more that Best Buy and Wold Camera. That was when I decided they definitely do not provide a "discount". Needless to say, I didn't purchase my DSLR there.
When I was ready to purchase my Canon S95, I did my research thoroughly and knew what I should expect to pay. I went in to Discount Camera because they offered the same price. A month later, I started having major problems with the camera. Canon told me to go to the store I purchased it from. I went in with a list of things that were going wrong and they said, clearly there was something wrong with the motherboard - it was defective product. THEY SOLD ME A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. Then, they said they would send it out for repair since it was under warranty and that I would have it back in 2 weeks. 3 weeks later, I called to get an idea of when I could expect to get it back AND THEY HAD NO ETA!!! I made them call Canon and was told that Canon hasnot even started working on it and has no idea whenit will be ready.
I asked to call Canon myself and was told that they couldn't give me their vendor info. So I just have to wait indefinitely for a camera i paid $400 for, just a few months ago, because, you know, they sold me a defective camera.…
Unethical, Rip Off, Warn Your Friends. A friend from Australia was sent by a hotel concierge to this place to buy a camera. She and her -20-month old shopped and were treated well during the initial process. She got home to find that they had given her a lower grade camera for the higher grade price -- a $200 plus dollar difference. When se returned to exchange, reciept in hand. They refused and started to rough her up until she called for the ploice. They literally were manhandling a woman with a baby in a backback in the store. THIS PLACE GIVES AMERICA AND AMERICANS A BAD NAME!!!! Never send anyone there. Warn your friends, send your enemies. I was totally embarassed by their treatment of foreign visitor!…
Do not shop here.
If you are a traveler do not shop here. They heard my accent, asked if I was from overseas, then ripped me off over $200 on the purchase of a new camera.
When I went back to confront them they told me to get lost.
The fact that they don't give out proper receipts should have been a warning.
Stay away from this shop.…
Most expensive in town.....
As my camera went dead while touring California from France, I had to buy a camera with no time to go around shops, compare prices, or buy from the internet...
I was abused by the "discount" word... People there look much too clever .... to be honest!
Now back home, I could have a look at market prices, and I found out, with no surprise, that I finally paid around 20 % overprice for a Panasonic FZ28 camera, and 50% overprice for an a-data SDHC 8GB class 6 card...
Keep away from that store, that is my piece of advice!…
