Any inpurt on  how should I proceed?  Around Thanksgiving I purchaced a new Samsung Digimax L85.  I charged the battery for 8+ hours and when I pressed the power on button nothing happened.  It was one of those purchases where you are informed by a sticker on the box that if there is a problem it cannot be returned to the place of purchase and an 800 number for Samsung was given .  To make a long story short it was at the Samsung repair center with the battery on Dec 5th and returned to me on Dec 20th without a battery.  The repair order stated that the PCB was defective and had to be replaced.  Since the battery was not returned I had to purchase another.  Nothing local so I had to purchase on line.   I received a new battery on Dec30th and proceeded to charge it.  After charging the battery I now had a camera that did not work in a different way.  Now the camera tries to turn on but will not stay on.  The LCD light up for a split second, the lens extends and then everything stops.  I still cannot get the lens to retract but the LCD does flash on and off for a split second.  The battery check out at 3.9V.  Has this happened to anyone else?

My question is should I try to get a replacement from where I purchased it or should I keep returning the camera to Samsung.  At some point it will be a referbished camera and not a new camera that I thought I was purchasing.  Note:  I had to pay for shipping to the repair center.  Losing proposition if this keeps up.
