Default Lost baggage hustle

I flew from JFK to PHX Arizona on an a Friday evening flight. The purpose was to attend a funeral service for a friend. Jetblue lost my garment bag with everything I needed. I was told to buy what i needed and the supervisor will reimburse me. I was only there for the day, so I picked up essentials. Underwear , socks, t shirt, P.J.'s, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste, q tips. The morning I flew out I gave the supervisor the receipt. He told me he would cut me a check for my purchase and 25 dollars for the per diam. He would have to mail it to me. Well I got a check for 25 dollars and was told that was to cover my purchase, there was a miss understanding. Now the good part. They still haven't found my bag. And they told me they will only reimburse my stuff if I give them the original receipt! Then they will give me the depreciated value of my things! We are talking 1500.00 worth of stuff. I pay cash for my things, not a fan of credit. How am long am I suppose to keep a receipt for? Can any one shed some light on what I can do?
