I had the same problem, but had much better luck with my dealer.
He had lots of mice in stock (have there been lots of problems?).
The price was about 40 canadian dollars, and the exchange price
was 30.  Since the Mega ST2 was still under warantee, my price
on producing a photocopy of my receipt, was 0.  My dealer said
that he needed the sales slip so he could claim for something
from Atari.

In the meantime, I would look for a replacement of dealers (smile).
