Received wrong camera!

man...I was expecting a Minolta maxxum 7d and just received a Dimage A20. Hopefully they have another maxxum they can send...though I am tempted to try out the dimage. The flip out screen feature would be handy. But lacking the maxxum's lens system and a lot of other features. How frustrating...

I suppose the bad grammar should have been a tipoff!

Oh well, it will get sorted out over the week hopefully.

Unfortunately, "Local" for me means the dollar store or walmart.

I certainly don't mean to laugh at your situation, but that quote is funny as hell!

Subtle,

Hopefully you used a credit card like Visa or Mastercard.

With a credit card you can contest the payment so the card company won't pay the vendor. You should read the rules on that since they give you 30 days or something to do it.

Hopefully you won't need to do it, but it does give you some leverage in case the vendor refuses to do a switch or whatever. You would think they would resolve it for you if it was their fault....

Damn, sounds bad.

Those low ball guys always

ya.

Gotta agree with Arch.... That's a funny quote!

Man, send it back if you ain't happy. Not sure about that if you've used the thing, though....

subtle · 08-15-2006, 03:44 PM

It's going back. I don't think there will be any loss other than time. But, when you want a new toy you want it now!
