Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit ampheta
This is a follow-up to the thread on problems with the Canon Mark III camera, after someone (can't remember who now) said they had purchased a Mark II from B&H Photo instead until the problems were ironed out.
I've never actually bought anything from B&H Photo because when I looked into it, they wanted me to fax a copy of both sides of my credit card to them as part of their security checks. I've never heard of this, and when I asked my bank, they hadn't either and advised me to be wary.
Is this a common occurrence? And what do other people feel about doing this??? I presume plenty of people do buy from B&H Photo and so are OK about it, but it makes me feel uneasy.
