Tripod or Camera Issue?

[rhodesmk]

This is cross-posted in the Rebel forum, but I don't seem to find a forum for accesories, so I'm posting here, too.

Last week, I purchased a Rebel 3Ti and a Canon Deluxe Tripod 300. The screw on the tripod mount doesn't seem to fit the hole in the bottom of the camera. It goes in a little, but won't tighten, leaving the camera to swivel easily and rock when touched.

This isn't normal, right? How do I test if it's the screw or the hole in the camera?

Thanks.
