Let's see - $3500 to join (no, I didn't leave out the decimal point),
prices aren't that great from what I was told by someone unfortunate
enopugh to have joined...s-c-a-m.

What do you mean? If I pay $3500, I can save $2000.

I understand from someone I know that joined this club that there is also a
lot of hidden charges tacked on to your purchase. The whole thing is a scam.

And to join, isn't it like going through one of those "free" deals for
vacation properties or similar, where they give you a free weekend
vacation somewhere, but lock you up in a room and make you listen to
their pitch for hours? I think they keep the whole thing a bit of a
mystery and to find out what DB is all about you have to go there and
sit through one of their pitches.

I priced shopped that company on some products I sold at the time so I
was VERY familiar with retail prices. tiny savings not worth the
price, and high pressure sales too........

I got an offer to join once. They wouldn't let to see what products
were available before joining, and the only membership was lifetime.
Of course I said no.

BTW, then they were offering free cameras. Probably not very good
ones, if they even had them.
