Don’t ‘diss a blogger

Thomas Hawk documents his experience with a Brooklyn discount photo store (PriceRitePhoto.com) as he tried to purchase a new Canon EOS 5D. Like all the lore suggests, the price was just too good to be true, and the retailer threatened Mr. Hawk after learning that he was going to blog his experience after the seller refused to fulfill the deal unless he purchased all sorts of high-markup accessories. Long story short – Yahoo! Shopping delisted the company, Digg.com users nearly took the company’s server down, and they ended up being pulled from most of the major comparison shopping sites following the brouhaha. I’ve experienced this on occasion before myself, though not quite to this degree. Seller beware!
