I reside in India bought 4s while on holiday to USA. Phone unlocked but does not recognise sim. Probably phone to be replaced. I cannot go to USA for this. How do I resolve this

I reside in chennai India. Bought iPhone 4s while on holiday to USA from best buy. On return to chennai I have got it unlocked. But the phone does not recognise the sim. Contacted local apple service. They say phone to be replaced. I cannot go to USA for this and courier charges are very high. What do I do? Can I get it replaced in India? If so where and how?  I could have bought the phone in India itself I just wanted a souvenir from USA. Is this the quality check they do there. Pl help

Best Buy does not sell unlocked iPhones.
Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can officially unlock it.
Getting the device unlocked anywhere else involves hacking/jailbreaking the device which voids the warranty and the user's right to support from these Apple forums.
Warranty and Support are only valid in the country of origin, in your case, the US.
Enjoy the paper weight.
I do believe your last sentence is deeply atrocious! You have no call to ridicule somebody who doesn't know these things. Sure, he has done something out of ignorance but, if ignorance is a crime and something to be a subject of ridicule, then God help us all!
