Scammer Camera Shop in Low Yat Plaza

I would like to report for a complaint for a scammer camera shop named MEGA SMART PHOTO GALLERY located at Low Yat Plaza.
I walked in to test a Nikon D5100 DSLR camera.
At first he offered me a Nikon D5100 with kit lens with RM1430 which is technically and reasonably pricier than a Nikon D3100.
Before we deal,the sales assistant George tried to offer me a package.
I am totally new to photography and I don't know well about the price of the accessories.
He offered me a D3100 with kit lens plus 1 "Sapphire (HD) NANO LENS"(a wide-angle/macro lenses) which he claimed costing over RM2000 in market.
The package costs RM1999 and we made it RM1950 finally.
The salesperson George even showed me that the lens will improve the image quality even compared to a D5100 which is higher end.(I suspect he used another lens on the D3100)
After I got home,I tested the lens and the effects weren't there and I feel being cheated.I did some research that the wide-angle/macro lenses in market actually costs less than RM200.
The next day I bought,I asked for return and exchange another item.
He refused to exchange and claimed that it's not refundable.
He then tried to offer me to change a zoom lens which is still lower than how much he charged me.
They then told me that the camera costs RM1698 which is much higher than the D5100 he offered me.
After a research,it's obviously that a D3100 kit will not cost more than RM1400 at any place,I requested to add some money for an upgrade to Nikon AF-S 50mm F1.8G lens.They then asked me to add RM300 extra to change another item.
That means I have to pay RM1950+RM300=RM2250 for a Nikon D3100 and a Nikon AF-S 50mm F1.8G which is unreasonable at all.
That's a big trap!
I hope that no more victims will experience this.
PLEASE DO NOT VISIT MEGA SMART PHOTO GALLERY!!!NEVER EVER!!!!
