"I WANT MY MONEY BACK"
... Is a Frequent Complaint
Possibly one of the most frequent complaints reccived bv the Better Business Bureau at this time of the year is a _ request for assistance in obtaining a refund for merchandise returned, or to be returned, for one reason or another. - Various reasons are given as excuses for returning mere chandise or refusing to pay for it. Sometimes it is dissatisfaction with the fit, or the style; or some other member of the family does not like it; or that since it was purchased they have lost their job and feel that they will be unable to pay for it; or that sickness has occurred, and so on.
While many retailers will refund the purchase price when customers change their minds, there is no way of corapelling
any concern to do so. I! is entirely a matter of store policy a privilege which many retailers extend to their customers
but which they are not obligated to do. The custorner had no legal right to demand a refund except in cases where there has been misrepresentation, deception, or fraud in
the sale.
This fact is not understood by a great many consumers who believe that they have’ just complaints when this or
‘that concern refuses to give them a refund. If you want
the privilege of returning merchandise for a refund. a safe course to follow is to make a purchase from a concern which, as a matter of policy, you know, will exteiad this privilege to you; or you should have a definite written understanding with the concern at the time of tiie sale,
or a memorandum placed on the sales slip.
Remember, there are generally but three condition: under which a refund is obtainable, one, where, as a miitter of policy, a store is voluntarily willing to make the refund; second, where there has been deception or fraud in the sale _ making them legally liable for a refund; or third, where there is a specific contract or understanding at the time of the sale which sets out the conditions under which a refund
will be ‘made.
