Missing Charger in Canon Rebel XT Box?

Question

I FINALLY had enough money to go out and buy my Canon Rebel XT today... as soon as the saleswoman handed me the box, I was out the door. I opened it at home, to discover that I was missing the battery charger! Does anyone know if I can call Canon and get them to mail me one for free? Or will I need to pay for it?

Answer 1

Why not go back where you bought it???  I see no reason why Canon would provide a charger for free, as some unscrupulous dealers remove them from the box so they can sell it to you as an accessory.

Answer 2

Radio Shack? Anyway, did you call them yet? Why do you want to call Canon--and wait, what, two weeks to get it?

Answer 3

Call Radio Shack immediately and tell them the charger is missing.  It is their responsibility to provide what belongs in the box.  They will have to get the charger from someplace to give to you.  Just don't delay or they may think you lost it.
