I was in LAFNAC DIGITAL COMPUTERS LTD. on 27th Nov 2009. I've purchased iPhone 3GS, some Canon lenses and some other useless stuff, for which they claimed it is the last technology not ever seen.
They are very, very polite! If you became suspicious they responded offended. I’ve tried the iPhone with my European SIM card in the store, and phone worked well. When I came back home nothing worked. The phone even won’t turn on. There is no warranty for the phone, so I could throw it away.
They have a special technique. I’ve got with me my Canon EOS 5D mark II. They asked me where did I purchased it and for how much. I’ve told them in Europe for about 3k EUR. They said they have an inventory and they have special price for this camera - 1500 USD, but only that day. When I analyze this back home, they knew I wouldn’t buy 5Dmk2. So they offered me such irrational price, to attract my attention. When I am thinking back I have a feeling I was somehow hypnotized. I am in normal life a very reasonable man(54 years). But I behave and react there like an idiot.
The boss that attended me and charged my credit card was Andrej (European name). He told me at least 10 times he is Andrej. When I called back from home, there was no Andrej. So Andrej is the name for those who were cheated. Because when you call back and ask for Andrej they know you are the “ONE”. I am sure they use other names too.
I’ve got an useless invoice with no prices at each article, no stamp.
The final result of my famous purchase is: my new iPhone is useless. The crown of all is - they overcharged my credit card for more than 1800 USD !!!! I am still waiting for the final result, hoping that it would not be more.
I reported them to Master Card, but I do not have any hope I’ll succeed with my complaint.
If you are more skilled go to defeat them. But better avoid this store on 42th street from center towards UN building on the left!!
