The machinery was only a few hundred dollars. We got quotes to remove the junk. There's no place to move the junk aside, there's that much. The removal would cost us low 5 figures. We bought it via an online auction from a professional auction site. There was no mention of all the junk. The...

What is the name of your state? New York I bought a piece of machinery at an estate auction. It's in a building on the property. There was a lot of junk in the building, making it impossible for us to get the machinery out. The attorney for the estate said we could wait to remove the machinery...

Thanks for the info and suggestions. Yes, I intend to pay the late fee and make sure I pay earlier from now on. The bill or reminder doesn't say "due upon receipt" or anything like that. I still need to go through the HOA contract. We're having an HOA meeting soon. I'll try to get a minute...

I emailed the management company, so I'd have a record. They said it's due on the 1st, late fee on the 16th, and pay earlier next time. Ignoring everything else. I'll have to dig out the HOA contract and check. I've lived here for almost 10 years and this is the first time I've had an issue...

Yes, we have records of the original invoice and the refund. The order was for a couple thousand dollars. Market value is hard to determine, as it was a custom made product that we were planning to bring to market. Nothing brought it on. It was just out of the blue. They didn't specify an...

There was a written order, but no additional contract or terms. It was almost 5 years ago. Minnesota 336.2-725 seems to indicate four years, but I've seen other references on the web to six years. If it is six years, can they come back almost 5 years after they accepted the refund and have a...

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Minnesota About a year ago, I bought a .net domain name. It's a generic term / word, not trademarked. As an example, say food.net (that's not the term / word). I planned to develop it, but got sidetracked with other business. I just found out a...
