When you first enter the Disney's Hollywood Park, you'll find this camera shop early on to your right, while walking Hollywood Blvd. Of course, in the beginning of our excursions, I didn't have a need for photography services because I was already well prepared with my trusty Sony Cyber-Shot camera! Or so I thought!
But halfway through our visit at the park, my old, outdated camera ran out of space on it's memory card. Something I was not prepared for, because I never had this problem in the past, even after taking hundreds of photos! I remembered seeing this store, so we made the trek back to see if they sold SD micro cards for my camera. There was only one other customer present, so we perused the area where memory cards were displayed. I couldn't see anything close to mine, but as soon as the sales woman was free, we inquired as to what they had available. The chips they had were limited, but Andrea (our cast member) found 1 micro card that she was positive would fit my camera. I was happy and relieved to be able to use my camera again! I then paid $42.59 for this purchase, which seemed awfully steep, but at this point, I was desperate!
Joe K then asked Andrea, if she could place it in the camera for us, since we were having some trouble. That's when we realized that this SD card was not the correct one after all! I ended up having to return it for a refund. Unfortunately, the refund process was a bit complicated to get through, but Andrea remained calm, friendly and pleasant through this time consuming ordeal even when the shop suddenly got busy while we were holding things up.
I was disappointed that this specialty store did not have what I needed and started to think that maybe my camera was so obsolete that I will have to buy a new one! I pretty much had to forgo picture taking for the rest of my day at this park. My cell phone camera lost power so quickly that it was unreliable.
The next day, we decided to check out Target and too my excitement, they had my exact Sony SD micro card in stock, and for only $19.99! This happy camper was again able to move forward with her vacation!!!
