You'll find that some people say great things about Kobo's CS and other people have very negative comments. This is typical for any manufacturer - including Kindle (just read their boards). I think the difference is that the Kindle has less problems, therefore, less dealings with CS required. Having said that, I've dealt with Kobo CS a couple of times for some minor stuff and they've always been prompt and accomodating.
I think there is a problem with Kobo CS when RETURNING the Kobo. Technically, it's supposed to be unused when returned. Perhaps that's why you are experiencing the run-around? I never like returning things by shipping them. That's why I don't buy electronics online (unless I can return them at a local store).
Too bad you didn't like the Kobo for your library books! I have had ZERO problems with my Kobo and I can't keep up with the library books I have checked-out!
