I ordered a camera through a place that called me no less than 10 times trying to upsell me on shit and took WAY too long to deliver.

Finally when the deliver date came and went and they were still "backed up" I called them and was assured it was on the truck and would be there "within the week."

I said fine, and they tried the upselling shit again. Everything from lens wipes to memory cards to actual lenses. Finally said "I'm just going to cancel my order" and had to be transferred about 5-6 times while repeating "Cancel my order" to everyone that picked up the phone, STILL trying to upsell me on shit. They lost a $1,000 dollar sale over it.

Amazes me that some companies are capable of staying in business like that, and even more surprising Dell is doing it.
