Advertising demo's with missing accessories

I have always a good customer experience at IC and regarded them as a highly reputable retailer. However, I am somewhat disturbed about an incident I have enountered at the store. I saw a Fujifilm bridge camera on display that was advertised as a demo model for a very competitive price. I asked the store who offered to assist me that I would like to buy the product. The rude awakening came when the assistant and I discovered the battery and charger was missing. I also took it as an insult to my intelligence when the assistant tried to convince me that the battery can be charged with an audiovisual/USB adapter! <br> As a habit I always research a product inside out prior to a purchase, but I would shudder to think how other consumers could be deceived. I will continue to shop at IC, but this time only sealed products. No more demo's for me!<br> <br>
