Yes, it is. You were sold what was supposed to be a functioning product that turned out to be defective, and the store isn't willingly to take responsibility. If that is not one of the better reasons for a chargeback, then I don't know what is. What kind of crappy credit card company do you have that doesn't allow chargebacks for defective products?
Frustrating experience

The amount some of you guys are willing to take in the rear from retailers is genuinely shocking.
Right? He's gotta be trolling because to actually mean what he said is just... retarded.
Everyone does the right thing when their dirty laundry gets aired.
Funny how that works.
And this is why it's a good idea to always post on a retailer's sub-forum when you feel all reasonable avenues have been exhausted, despite the legions of NPCs here crying about using a dealer's public forum to publicly contact them. Guarantee you that the only reason they called is because they saw this thread and knew they're in the wrong (i.e. damage control).
Devils advocate is this all happened within a three hour . So it’s possible they were just busy discussing it. They also mentioned it’s a first for them which I believe I sort of have a hard time believing other retailers would do the same so in the end I’m happy
Nice of you to give them the benefit of the doubt after dealing with that. They're good people from my interactions with them, not knocking them there, but there isn't a doubt in my mind that this thread is what ultimately pushed them in a more amenable direction. Seen it happen countless times on this forum; company screws over a customer and pretty much tells them tough sh*t, only to change their tune once their actions are made public. Had you stuck to private correspondence in person or via phone or email, I'm quite sure you would have gotten the same response as in-store.
They come preinstalled with a battery, so It really should’ve been lit and working right out of the box. However, it was not and we did not realize the battery was already inside of it. The cap got scratched in the process of trying to install the new one.
thats right. it took 4 pages of venting for them to exchange . should have done on the spot
Had this same thing happen with me from them. Lesson learned, flagged retailer for my future purchases.
Glad they offered somthing before this became the next FOC credit card thread.
