A friend lent me a book last year. The book is now out of print and I have misplaced it. I was living at a [then] friends house but things went sour and I left. I left the family a letter promising to give them money for letting me stay there and took some of my belongings. I left clothes, books and a bed mattress behind, I planned on picking my belongings up when I got a steady job. I had forgotten I left my bag of books there. She has been asking me for the book back several times within the past several months. I've told her again and again that I do not remember what happened to the book, it should've been at my other friends house, she asked him if it was there and he said no. I have told her numerous times that I will buy the book when it is put back into print later this year but she says she won't accept that. she is demanding her edition back which costs over $100. money I do not have due to the fact I cannot find a job. I can afford to spend about $30 which should cover the cost of this book when it is reprinted. Tonight over an instant messenger she threatened to take me to court over this small issue if I didn't replace her edition of the book. I told her I cannot do that and would still be replacing her book with what I can afford.
does she have a case?
