Rip off
Wisetronics is a rip off. PLEASE BUY SOMEPLACE ELSE... it will save you lots of headaches. All shopping search engines should permanently remove them from their websites. Wisetronics mislead the consumers by offering low prices, but what you don't know is that they will try to sell you all sorts of accessories and if you don't buy the accessories, you will never receive your order.I will personally contact the federal and local authorities to make these people accountable and put them out of business. My brief story: I made my purchase, received an email to contact them by phone to confirm the order, the salesman persistenly tried to sell me batteries, lens, filters, etc. He said that the manufacturer's battery only last a few minutes and that I needed to purchase additional batteries (jacked up prices), then he went on with other reasons why I should buy the lens and filters... etc. I told him I just wanted the camera. He very rudely hung up on me after I put my foot down. When I made the purchase, it said "ships in 1-2 business days". I called 2 weeks later to find out about the order and the saleswoman told me that they were out of stock and it will be a month before they have more. I told her that on their website the camera shows to be available and "ships in 1-2 business days". She just told me "we don't have it". Needless to say, I canceled the order. I researched the company and found out that I am not the only one. There are tons of complaints against Wisetronics. I was fortunate enough to cancel my order before the shipment was made and would have received the wrong item like many others did. Bottom line: If you don't buy their expensive accesories, you will never get your order. I should have done my homework before I purchased from Wisetronics.

Bait and switch, rude, false advertising!
Placed order online for Sony DCR SR80 camcorder, was sent an email a few days later stating I needed to call back to confirm order... when I called I spoke to what sounded like a teenage kid... he was rude and attempted to hardsell extra batteries etc... I refused and then he stated the camera was backordered... would not answer questions and finally hung up on me... Also very strange... he asked for last three digits of credit card security code... hopefully my card isn't hit with fraud... A month later... no camera... still claim it was backordered however I had a friend call and they confirmed camera was in stock... "as long as you buy accessories... if not they tell you it's out of stock... forever until you cancel the order... I googled the company and there a hundreds of complaints just like mine... They are currently under investigation by the NY attorney General per several reports... STAY AWAY from these guys!!!
All these are related companies owned by same group of scammers:
Accessories Land,
I.N.S. Digital World,
Stargate Photo Inc.,
The Camera Whiz,
Wawa Digital,
Wisetronics
Wisetronics, 2845 86th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223. The actual phone # is (718)373-7821. The "owner???" is Shlomi Albaydadi & there are at least 3 in Brooklyn. I found all this on the NY City BBB website. I also filed a complaint with them to just get it on the record. At last count there are 21 complaints there. My next step is a complaint through the NY Attorney General office, you can download the form from their website. If everyone files a complaint maybe we can shut this guy down or better yet send him to jail.
