I was getting ready to finally send my defective Leon back to Buy.com, and I was wondering if anyone has had success with making exchanges?? Thanks!

I had called Columbia TriStar and returned the DVD directly to them as they requested on 9/8/00. I haven't received the replacement yet though they had stated it would ship last week.

I forwarded this message (originally posted by Geoff) to CDNOW with my order number and they generated a new replacement order for me (they also sent a return label for me to return my defective copy):
----
Dear Columbia TriStar Home Video Customer,
An audio issue has been discovered on the 5.1 audio track of the Columbia TriStar Home Video DVD release of the title LEON: THE PROFESSIONAL, catalog # 04730.

Buy.com willingly took back my LEON and I had been waiting for the new one.
I called Customer Service and they told me that LEON was discontinued and they would not be carrying the new version. Of course, it's still on their web site.
I was so relieved of their ignorance, I will probably buy it elsewhere even if it's more money.

I received my email confirmation today that LEON is on his way 2nd day delivery, with a tracking number. Checked the tracking number, and it has already arrived at the Chicago station. I should be getting it tomorrow. Amazon gave me a new order number immediately and kept me appraised of the order status. I had absolutelu no problem with the return process.
Thank you Amazon!!!!!!!

i ordered my copy of Leon from Buy.com way back in June or July. i never received any copy from Buy.com. the defective copy never came & so far, the new, fixed copy has not come.
any suggestions? is there confirmation that the new "fixed" Leon has been released & someone holds a copy of that in their hand? i hate to talk to Buy.com customer service if i can help it b/c they get confused too easily. help!
