"The Rittenbergs paid about $1,600 for a camcorder at a Best Buy store in the St. Louis suburb of Ellisville last week. They said when they opened the box, they found something they hadn't pictured: a jar of Classico pasta sauce where the camera should have been.
When the couple tried to return it, they were told by Best Buy that the box had been sealed, so the swap couldn't have happened at the store.
The Rittenbergs have not heard back from Best Buy or Sony concerning if they will receive a replacement camera or reimbursement.
San Diego-based Sony Electronics Inc. said it had a record of the incident. The company said it had not fielded any other complaints about pasta sauce being discovered in place of cameras."

No other complaints of pasta? Well that's good! So if it wasn't Sony, and it wasn't Best Buy, then it must've been an already returned product that wasn't checked when it came back in, right? Either that or the Rittenbergs are liars. But either way, Best Buy should just give 'em a camera if they want to save face, because I doubt they'll win a trial anyway. At least it was Classico and not Ragu.
