I think I'd take the low profile approach, if they have a Christmas display 
out, I think I'd wait until the season's over and see if it goes away, if 
not then try the next step, whatever that may be. It's possible they may be 
helpful if you knock on the door, but these days it's just as likely you'll 
be blamed for every electronics failure they've ever had and open yourself 
to more headaches. There's a fine line there.
