Famous Brooklyn Bait-and-Switch Camera Store Scam Busted? [McBrooklyn]
I’ve been disregarding fake “no parking” signs and home-made yellow curbs for some years now and haven’t had a problem. If I had a fancy new car that evoked envy though, I’d be a bit more careful.
Sure but the wrinkle is that the sketchy stores from brooklyn can sell over the internet.
Apparently it takes a Texas prosecutor to take care of greedy guys from brooklyn. Consumer protection is a bit of a joke in NYC.
So what’s new with the camera store deal? This has been going on forever. Greedy owners and greedy customers, a perfect match.
Shop at Adorama, see my friend Ephraim. Or B&H. Or some of the pro-oriented stores like Lens and Repro.
lol i read that review on bushwickbk about the basement thrift store. that girl who wrote it encapsulates everything that is wrong with bushwick and williamsburg. hahha. im not hating on thrift stores btw, i almost exclusively shop at salvation armies, but that’s out of necessity.
