I'm in the market for a new Point and Shoot Camera. I settled on a Lumix, and proceeded to shop around. I'm cashed up, and was ready to buy at Harvey Normans, Dick Smith, David Jones, Grace Bros (Myer) and JB HiFi, but bugger me if I could get anyone to serve me - I was ready to buy then and there, and I was ignored like a used car shopper. I managed to set an alarm off looking at the camera at Myer, and all they did was turn the alarm off, not ask if I wanted any assistance. They were/are also the most expensive.

After wasting a weekend looking, I stumbled across a couple of online sites, before giving Amazon a go. I can get the same Lumix camera, which Myer have for $599, for ~$220, with free US Shipping. My Brother-in-law is in the states for work, so I'll have the camera shipped to him, and he'll bring it home for me.

So bugger ya Hardly Normals. You've lost me.
