felt like a thief

Simle return of a friends Kodak camera. Purchased two weeks ago and he lives an hour away. I went to visit and said I would return it for him. He had charged it, turned it on, view screen showed a line across it. I Tried to return it for him, was refused. Had the receipt but was accused of abusing it and why did I wait so long? There wasn't a mark anywhere on the camera. Hell only one accessory had been opened, the charger, since they don't come charged. Got an attitude from the electronic woman and the manager and her made us feel like we were thiefs! The manager said to deal directly with Kodak. Kodak said it was within the return time to be returned to the store and to return there. What a scam! This kid is out nearly $200. I will never shop there again! Not to mention that this took way to long to handle, had to be at customer service nearly half an hour.

Honor thier own policy. It was obvious the camera had't been abused no matter what the mornons said. The receipt was not over a month old. I know lenses get cracked in shipping and in store, I work in an electronics dept of another retail chain.

For my store's credit card purchased returns, it'll only go back on
THAT credit card, or a cash card.

Your friend should go to the store with his credit card and return the
camera. Stores usually want the original-purchase credit card in
order to process a return.

And I see you haven't learned from your last train-wreck of a letter.
You're still swearing, and there are basic misspelled words (thieves,
not thiefs; their, not thier; etc.).

but no one treated you like a thief. They said they felt the camera
had been abused/mishandled, not stolen.

But I have to ask, were you looking to EXCHANGE the broken camera or
just return it? That would make me suspicious too if a customer
wanted to return a defective item and was not planning on buying
another one. I'd have to wonder if they had used it for one event,
mistreated it and then wanted to take it back and get all their money
back.

The fact that you are here accusing them of "treating you like a
thief," cursing and attacking anyone who responds in opposition to
your letter makes you appear that much more suspect.

a lot better response. I would be ashamed to send a letter like this
and truly expect a decent response.
And, was it a month or 2 weeks?
And swaring only makes it worse. Totally unnecessary.
And gets you no brownie points.
Honey gets more that bitter.
No one MAKES you feel anything. You decide your own response/reaction
to a given situation.
Count to 10 and write again.

lack any real feelings.

And the whirring and vibration are just downright distracting.

you can't spell, you can't string together a coherent sentence, you
called them names and you have zero grasp of proper grammer. no one
will pay one whit of attention to this ridiculous diatribe. my only
question is, what the heck are you getting so upset about; it isn't
even your camera, which makes it none of your cotton pickin' business.
let "the kid" handle it.

the hell are you cursing for?

1) Drop the curse words. "hell" does not belong in a business letter

2) Sorry you have bad eyesight and that your grammar/English skills
are not good. But you have no right to take it out on us. We're trying
to provide you with constructive criticism.

Long story short: drop the attitude and you may be surprised at how
far it can go.

In fact, I don't think your letter gets anywhere NEAR the realm of
grammar. But hey, you wrote pretty well for someone who obviously
never went to school. Good job! And judging by your personality
exhibited in your comments below, charm school couldn't be afforded
either.

Too bad some of her comments got deleted by RedheadwGlasses Sun March 16, 2008 @ 8:51 PM


Bam! by padoxiegirl Mon March 17, 2008 @ 11:26 AM

Something doesn't quite add up. You (singular) returned a camera, and
later state "her (sic) made us (plural) feel like we (plural) were
thiefs (sic)", then you state "This kid is out nearly $200."

Maybe the "kid" could get this resolved himself, or at least write a
business letter without using foul language,

Well, "she" was an electronic woman. We all know how they are supposed to by Steve-Oh Sun March 16, 2008 @ 10:05 AM

You write a letter like this and you call them "mornons"?

Reply

by SiouxFan Posted Sun March 16, 2008 @ 2:02 AM

Or maybe it's the new slang term for people that are morons only in
the MORNing?

Ignore me, I'm just grasping at straws. ;)

Okay so I'm not a typist or an english teacher and my eyesight isn't
that great! If you guys are only on these boards to berate those that
use it, then you should be using sites like rage.com!
