BingoCameras.com – SCAM?

Well, while trying to make my new purchase on a Canon 7D DSLR, I came upon BingoCameras.com, which advertised the same camera for 1/2 the price at about $1000 instead of $1899 on Amazon.

I almost purchased the camera at BingoCameras… then a lightbulb struck me, GOOGLE!

I googled “BingoCameras scam” (as I always do before buying something too good to be true and came upon this blog post where the author says BingoCameras.com is a Bait and Switch company, meaning they are on the borderline of scam. (Well, I think they are scammers really.)

Just check out some of the comments from that blog post where customers never got their products for the advertised price.

yep. same thing happened to me. I put in an order for a canon 5d body at a great price, got a call where they tried HARD to sell me the 50D instead, saying it was a much better camera. i refused and they told me the 5D was out of stock and wouldnt arrive for 4-6 weeks. I surprised them by telling them that was fine. so he puts me on hold (for about the 3rd time that call) except he obviously forgot to press the button. So i heard him talking to his “manager” saying stuff like “I can’t get this bitch to take the sale” I held on till he came back and told me he talked to his manager and, surprise surprise, the 5d now won’t be in for 2-4 MONTHS. I told the guy to cancel my order. he got very snippy and practically hung up on me.

Clearly a scam, I don’t know why they are still in business. If you got scammed from this company, make sure to file a complaint with ICC.

We have to work as a group to put these scammy companies out of business, they don’t deserve a single penny of our money earned through real hard work, not scamming.

*Note – BingoCameras, if you want to get off my ShitList, please stop advertising false prices with no intention of delivering the actual product. Companies like you disgust me, if you are going to do business online, DO IT RIGHT.
