images Recently, I bought a Digital Camera online from http://www. gkvale. com. The cost of the Camera was around Rs. 4,777. I bought it online as it is convenient, saves time & the transaction was secure. I would like to document the buying process. First I went to lot of comparison Shopping Search Engines. Some of them were compareindia , naaptol, tolmol , pricesbolo etc. , Be careful buying digital cameras with prices that seem too cheap to be true. While this certainly isn’t the case of every low price retailer, some companies will bait you in with a low-priced camera, only to tantalize you with ‘bargain’ package deals that may contain substandard or closeout memory, batteries, camera cases, or the like. These dealers may lose money if they just sell the digital camera at their rock bottom price, but by selling a package deal they can profit. Thus, you may try ordering just the camera, they may apply a pressure sales tactic, and if you do not purchase the entire package or an extended warranty, suddenly the digital camera is on backorder and will be ‘available at a later time’. Always shop around and only buy equipment from trustworthy businesses that you know will be around later in case of problems with your purchase. And this tip is not to say that all package deals are bad – just make sure to purchase only what you need. I narrowed down to a Digital Camera manufactured by Samsung i. e. , Samsung D-760 . The MRP mentioned was Rs. 8,990. 00 . Features 8. 1 mega pixels3x optical zoom Self Portrait2. 4″ Intelligent LCD brightness Face Detection AF & AE 11 Scene Modes DIS(Digital Image Stabilization) function Function Description & Photo Help Guide Then I went to many Indian online stores like ebay. in , indiaplaza. in, JJmehta. com etc. , Finally I found a tempting offer at http://www. gkvale. com . The Samsung D-760 was available for a Special Price: Rs. 4,777. 00 : A Whopping 46% discount on the MRP.
