I have actually noticed this lots with certain retailers on Ebay. I was in the market for a DSLR and looked them up on ebay. There are some amazing deals with them, such as a $2,000 dollar camera set going for around $1200.
They do the backorder, you call and then they try to upsell to you. They also include shitty sigma and other brand lenses instead of the Canon lenses.
I actually emailed every single person in Canada who ordered the camera from this particular dealer and asked them about their experience (I sent about 50 emails out, got about 8 responses). Every single response mentioned the upsale, and most went for it.
I ended up buying my camera from a local dealer here who specializes in cameras and I bought a whack of stuff, and he gave me about $400 off anyways.
