12/7/08: I ordered a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 camera, with shipping total $228.99 on 12/7/2008 through website, and same day received e-mail stating: Dear SAM L Thank you for your order from 86th Street Photo & Video - Order # 600325-W. Your order is currently:Processing.

12/8/08: 6pm, received e-mail stating: "Order # 600325-W

Dear SAM L,
We thank you for choosing 86th St. Photo & Video as your choice for all your photographic equipment.

If you have already called and confirmed your order, you may disregard this request.

Sunday: 9:30AM to 9:00PM(EST)

Once again,
Thank you for choosing 86th St. Photo & Video."

12/9/08: I called the number and talked to Steven, who said I should receive my order within 3-4 weeks and hung up. Immediately after hangup at about 9:15am, I received the following e-mail, cancelling the order:

Order # 600325-W
Dear SAM L
Your order with our company has been cancelled. Your credit card has not been billed. All your sensitive data were deleted from our system.
Thank you,
86th Street Photo & Video.

Please do not reply to this email. To contact us please visit our site and fill out the form at http://www.86photovideo.com/contact_us.asp.

In retrospect, I believe that my initial response to Steven's question: "Please confirm your shipping address" was to say "What information do you show?" triggered a termination--although instead of saying he was cancelling my order--he said I should receive the order within 3-4 weeks.

But is this a "ripoff?"

AUTHOR: Terrance - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, December 09, 2008

This seems to be a case of a misunderstanding or miscommunication. Sometimes people make mistakes. This business gained nothing by cancelling your order, in fact, it probably cost them money.
