Dear Ms. Lin

Last month, I ordered a Digital Camera, model Cyber-shot, from your store. When it arrived, I discovered that it was wrong. The camera came with the wrong battery charger.

At the moment I dind't do nothing because I dont't have time.But one week ago, I returned the camera to your service department. I still haven't received my replacement and one of your stor's employee refuses to replace it because I didn't notice at first. But it's not my fault.And, how can I use or change the battery. It's impossible. Therefore , I would like to receive a new Digital Camera.

I look forward to your reply and hope you will handle this matter promptly

Sincerely
