short question: is a receipt a legally binding document?
medium question: i made a return at XXXX XXX and they accidentally gave me a receipt promising that i would recieve a check in the mail for the full refund price. a few days later i got a second receipt in the mail with a handwritten note explaining that they had mistakenly not subtracted restocking fees from the original refund receipt. can they do that? can they make a new receipt after
i've left, changing the information?? if they can do that, couldn't i, as a real estate owner, charge $150,000 for a house, have a buyer talk me down to $120,000, accept their check, write a receipt and mail them a 2nd reciept declaring that they still owe me $30,000? wouldnt their original receipt stand in court as the close of purchase?
is there any way i can use the original receipt to get a full refund?
longer question: i went to XXXX XXX on 2/2/01 to look at video cameras. i asked about one that was on sale. i was told that today was the only day it would be on sale. so i bought it. then i was told it was not in stock and had to be
ordered. they told me it would be in on 2/10/01. i came in on 2/12/01 and i was not there. so i bought a camera that cost $10 more...and realized that not only was the camera i was SUPPOSED to get STILL on sale, despite the warning i was
given in order to convince me to buy it initially, but my reciept showed that i was overcharged by $10 on the initial purchase anyway. so the exchange didnt cost me any more than the $10 i was originally overcharged. i decided within a couple of days of this new purchase that i wasn't at all satisfied with the replacement and i wanted my money back. come to find out they have such a policy that if a product has been opened, there is a 15% charge on the refund. thus, if a customer is not fully satisfied with their purchase at XXXX XXX, policy dictates they be FINED for returning it. i dont see this as good business. in this case the dissatisfaction was to cost me $90. but the reciept they gave me did not indicate that charge. a week later, i still have no refund in the mail, but i do have the corrected reciept. they have at this point made 1/2 a dozen or
so mistakes with me the customer, and the only one they have bothered to correct was the one against them, the corporation. is there anything i can do to make sure this mistake, too, goes uncorrected? the question is: can i hold them liable for the original return reciept?
