I say do whatever you can to make those bastards suffer. Call, call, keep calling. Call the regional offices for Best Buy. Even if you don't get your camera back faster, at least you've spent the time getting payback for the poor service.

The troubl eis, when I get really angry in person I'm not articulate. I just cry. And although that is effective, I just can't bring myself to do that ( although, giveme another 2 weeks sans camera and I just might be there). I'm much better in print where I can articulate my anger. I do like Scott's idea. . . how about a mace? My dream is to actually have a screaming hissy fit.

And I would absolutely FREAK without my camera for that long... I agree with TJ... if you can get *into* the store (I know, avec kids can be reeeeeaally difficult) and ruffle some feathers that way, I bet you'll see your camera inside of a week. Why they don't take the preliminary phone call seriously is beyond me... asking for trouble, IMO. Give 'em hell, Lou. ;) Oh, luuuuuv the ruffle-butted baby! Have a good day! :) Ooooh that kind of CS BS makes me sooo mad!

(I did that at Fry's as a matter of fact and I made out like a bandit on my warranty deal) - I hope you get the thing back soon!!!

Sounds like the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. Hope they get it figured out soon for you. I know I would hate to be without my camera for 30days or more. Even a few days would be torture. :( That sucks Lou. Sounds like the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. Hope they get it figured out soon for you.

I'm sorry you're without your camera. :( It might be best if you write to their corporate headquarters, you'll probably get a faster resolution that way.
