Does anyone have any experience buying digital cameras from Digital
Liquidators?  Their prices on certain units are way, way lower that most
others.  I'm just wondering if this is one of those "If it's seems to good
to be true....." situations.
Any and all feedback welcome.

It's bait & switch operation.  You'll never be able to buy anything
from them at the advertised price.

I tried to buy a camera from them.  The price was good, but it came with
no accessories.  Shortly after I ordered online, I received a phone call
from them in which they made a high-pressure effort to sell me the
accessories at 2-3 times retail price.  When I declined, they told me
that the camera was not available at this time but they would get back
to me in a few weeks.  I cancelled the order.

I had exactly the same experience.  There are too many legitimate companies
to deal with these phonies.

B&H also tried the hard sell add ons, (which come with the advertized P/N
camera, then came up with the no US warrenty bit, unlees you buy one with an
add-on package that included several hundred dollars (overpriced) of less
than top of the line accessories.

Thanks all for your info.  I guess they really are too good to be true.
