Battery Included with Canon XTi?

Question

I just verified my order at PhotoDynasty.com and they said in the New Models of the XTi's there isn't a battery that comes with it.

Is it true.

By the way, I bought a "

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi 10.1 Megapixel, SLR, Digital Camera Kit (Black) with Canon 18-55mm EF-S Lens

With 1 Year USA Warranty" and when I asked when it changed, the guy I talked to said "In the new models of the Camera." When did Canon start making new models of the XTi. And he kept calling the XTi a Camcorder.

Should I call back and talk to someone else.

Answer 1

Cancel the order and alert your credit card company.  Check www.resellerratings.com and you will see PhotoDynasty has a rating of .43 out of 10.  Thats POINT 43.  They are a well know scam outfit.  You will never see a camera from those people until you pay a LOT of money for items that are actually included in the box.  

Once you cancel your order, buy from B&H Photo.

Answer 2

I have that camera, and a battery and charger came with it.  I have never heard of a "new model".   If he is calling it a camcorder, he doesn't know what he's talking about.   I would call and talk to someone else.   Sounds like they want to charge you for something that is supposed to come with the camera.  

I've never heard of that company.  Strange that their website doesn't say where they are located.  Too bad you didn't order from Adorama or BHPhoto.  Those are very reputable companies.

You can search your battery code in the two website below: just type your camera models in the search box.
