16 CFR Part 429. (analysis review by the FTC)Some types of sales cannot be canceled even if they do occur in locations normally covered by the Rule. The Cooling-Off Rule does not cover sales that:
are under $25;
are for goods or services not primarily intended for personal, family or household purposes. (The Rule applies to courses of instruction or training.);
are made entirely by mail or telephone;
are the result of prior negotiations at the seller's permanent business location where the goods are sold regularly;
are needed to meet an emergency. Suppose insects suddenly appear in your home, and you waive your right to cancel;
are made as part of your request for the seller to do repairs or maintenance on your personal property (purchases made beyond the maintenance or repair request are covered).
Also exempt from the Cooling-Off Rule are sales that involve:
real estate, insurance, or securities;
automobiles, vans, trucks, or other motor vehicles sold at temporary locations, provided the seller has at least one permanent place of business;
arts or crafts sold at fairs or locations such as shopping malls, civic centers, and schools.
Now, did someone have a question?
