Faulty 9-DoF board

Hi,
I received a SparkFun 9 DoF sensor board but I find that the magnetometer doesn't work.
I tried contacting help and was told I would need to pay $50(!) to ship it back which seems pretty rough given it was DoA.
I am rather unhappy with the service so far :(

2011-07-23 01:44:59 yep. We received your request.
Do you have Australia Post Recorded or similar? Go to you post office and ask, they should have such kind of service.

2011-07-21 20:47:41 Aus post air mail doesn't have tracking.
The cheapest way to get that is the "Express Post International Document" service but that is $42.30(!)
I have already filled in the RMA page, I will do it again.

2011-07-21 05:14:37 Right, I can send it via AusPost with delivery confirmation for $13.

2011-07-19 04:14:12 I was told it had to be shipped via registered post which costs AUD$50.
Also, I wasn't given an address to ship it to even after repeated requests.

2011-07-19 03:55:01 why you need to pay 50 to ship it back? send it back to us via a recorded shipping method should not cost you 50 USD.
Send it back to us, and we will replace you with you a new one. You only need to send it back to us.
