Can I buy a camera with a credit card at the Central Market

[gavinmac]

If the OP has his/her own credit card and all is legit, he/she can go to an ATM to withdraw cash, or into a bank and get a cash advance.

(And then make a cash purchase of a pre-loved camera - or a new one - from the Central Market)

Or am I missing something ??...

Cash advance limits from American credit card issuers are usually much lower than purchase limits. If you get a $10,00 credit limit, that might include only $2,000 for cash advances. So it's possible the OP has maxed out his cash advance limit already, or he realizes that getting a cash advance on his credit card will generate the aforementioned onerous fees.

^^ Useful info for the OP.

Back to the plan suggested by tuk-tukfish then perhaps....

If it sounds stupid, but it works, then it isn't stupid.

I was not suggesting your plan was stupid. I find the image of it amusing (but not stupid).
