Camera Debacle (or why Best Buy Sucks!!)

I haven't been too into blogging lately because my camera broke. Well this past weekend we bought a new one. We strayed from our Cannon to a Sony because all the reviews say it's better. Well it's not better for us. I was terribly disappointed in the picture quality and the zoom had settings in it that you could not override. So within a half hour of having it out of the box we decided to take it back to Best Buy. So tonight I give the King the receipt to take it back tomorrow. (It's an hour drive.) He starts reading the receipt and come to find out we will be charged a 15% restocking fee. That's over thirty dollars! And since we used a debit card and the purchase was over $250 dollars we will be sent a CHECK IN THE MAIL IN 10 DAYS!! What The Fuck! Now we have always like Best Buy the staff are knowledgeable and usually quick to help. But, from now on we will go LOOK at Best Buy, ask our questions and go BUY somewhere else, like Amazon. We all like to gripe about Wal-Mart but they at least take there crap back!

I am loving the new look girl!!!! Wow! Love the owl! I am sorry your camera situation is not happy. I have been reluctant to buy a new camera, it is so confusing! Really enjoying your posts.

Thanks! My hubby fixed it up for me. I'm going to have to change this post cause Best Buy waived the stupid restocking fee.

WE've decided to stick to a point and shoot Cannon. With Princess I hate to go too long with out one. She grows up so fast!
