Well, they are a real store. Here's a picture of it:

And (you'll have to scroll down a ways):

And finally (again scroll down, most under Marine Park, one under MP
Superstore):

Had enough?

Don:
Well on the good side one of the lists showed 10 or 11 worse camera
stores. What is it with camera stores anyway?
Thanks. I prey that my purchase goes OK. Im surprised that Microsoft has
them as part of there passport service.

Thanks for the links

Does this just mean that MP Superstore pays to be certified? It would seem
to me that those logos cost money.

First those 10 or 11 are less than that many. Often stores go by more than
one name. You have already learned that Marine Park Camera is the same as
MP Superstore. And TheDigitalDog is the same as TheDigitalBuyer. And
TheCameraZone is the same as ThePhotoSpecialists. And BestStopDigital has
another name. Then you need to look where all these that are worse are
located. You will find that most are here in Brooklyn. And others are in
Manhattan. Matter-of-fact, no one has ever posted here about a vendor in
Brooklyn that always gets good marks. Focus Cameras may be okay, but I
haven't see them pushing digital cameras. They may only sell traditional
photographic equipment.

>Thanks. I prey that my purchase goes OK.

Me too. I hope you used a credit card and not a debit card. I don't even
have a debit card. I much prefer the protection that a credit card gives
me. And my non-debit cash card gets me cash.

Maybe all one has to do is pay to be part of it?

Yes I always use a credit card and one of the reasons I used them was
because they were part of the MS passport program and MS CLAIMS to have
checked them out. The other reason of coarse was the price.

Really? I emailed MS Passport customer service a notice about MP. Still
waiting any reply more than a week later.

The good news is MP is no longer listed on the 20% off page. The bad news
is Mercata, PhotoAlley and 800.com are gone too.
