Stellar effort! And almost a success. After finding some mail box stores I was disappointed. But later a BBB investigation, and doing a google search on Cameras and Electronics.com's fax number, found true locations for all I went out for. There is one Brooklyn dealer that I know of that I need to get. They are in Williamsburg, which is in the opposite direction. And checking my notes now I see I didn't go out after the new digitaletc.com location.  And another I was near seems to have moved. Ineed to revisit that address. It is hard to be caught up. Cameras and Electronics.com really put effort into hiding their true identity. Finding their fax number to be the same as Abe's of Maine was a real coup. (I can now see calling Cameras and Electronics.com and when they answer and say Cameras and Electronics.com, I would show surprise and say I thought I was reaching Abe's of Maine.)

I guess the "Megastore" people must have invented an inter-dimensional-bubble expansion device which lets them create a mega-sized store in such a small place. With such techno-wizards running that company, I'd have NO problem purchasing a mere digital camera from such under-appreciated geniuses! I wonder if Dr. Who consulted them when decorating the interior of the Tardis? Thanks for the pointer!
