Don"t dismiss Raelyn Campbell as a crackpot. Not yet. Listen to her story, and then decide if she"s doing the right thing by asking Best Buy to compensate her to the tune of $54 million for a laptop that went missing when she took it in to Best Buy for repair under the store"s own extended warranty.
Like many people, Campbell bought an extended warranty for her laptop when she bought it from Best Buy, and she took advantage of that when the power button broke off after a year. Best Buy accepted the machine for repair and said it would be ready in two to six weeks. But six weeks passed and the computer wasn"t ready. After three months of ruthlessly hounding the company, Best Buy finally admitted it couldn"t find the machine.
