anyone use these? was thinking of starting to purchase cameras seems like a good deal for 99$ and a great return policy.

I saw those and was wondering the same thing. Who is yhe REAL manufacturer anyway?

i think its a stealth 8mp with video and  includes sd card batteries and tree mount for 99$ i will try to make it over to costco to day to make sure its a stealth camera

Get the model number and do an internet search for reviews.  If it is what they had last year they were not very well liked by the majority of users.  For $100 dollars you can buy a Moultrie m80 which is a great cam.  It will not come with an sd card or any of the accessories but it will work. 

If you can take a picture with your phone and post it here.

Check ebay as well. I was able to pick up a couple Primos Ultra 35's for around $62 apiece camera only. I have been really happy with the picture quality so far.

Here it is

A quick search for reviews reveals very little.  One review states that the sensor only triggers out to 15-20 feet when it is advertised as 50 ft range.  Other reviews state it takes great pictures (quality wise).  The older 7 mp model gets great reviews so who knows....it may be a pretty good deal. 

Cost on the internet shows $100 -150 without accessories.  So $99 with accessories is a pretty good deal.  Buy one and let us know how it works.

I read a review that was mostly good, however, it sounds like the downside to this camera is battery life. The review said that even if the camera took zero pictures, it would last no more than 40 days. I wouldn't buy it for that reason.

to late i will try it out and see what happens i bought it from costco so returns are easy.

Had a buddy buy 2 of these last year. I set one of his and one of my Moultries up side by side and his only triggered about half the time so they miss ALOT of pics.......
