So a few of you remember back in 2008 I purchased a Canon Professional Camcorder from a shady website.
Here's the link to the thread: GP.net Link

Well the BBB of NY created a lawsuit against a few electronic online stores.
The BBB mailed us a check for $1506.99.
The is about half what I paid for the whole package.
So basically we made out big on the deal.
Well, Zalfrin, I guess the BBB isn't so worthless.

So my parents are going to buy a MacBook Pro with the check so I can start making better videos.

Here's a letter the BBB sent:

That's good news.

It's hard to believe that was 2 years ago, I remember the thread but it only seemed like 6 months ago.

I was surprised like 5 months or so ago that my mom showed me papers from them asking for us to fill it out and describe what happened.
She asked for $1506.99 and she got it.
