seller breach of contract....my recourse?
Comments (31)my take on this is you said "give me a quote on XXX hood and these other appliances." the dealer did just that, quoting it as if would be a package deal. you then bought ONLY the hood from him. and yes, if it were a package deal he should have expressly stated it as such in writing. we sell communications systems to governement and private parties. when we do a quote it is for what is on the paper as a package. if any special discounts are given, that is listed as well. the reason we started doing this was a similar situation to yours. i quoted a customer 50 units on a single sale. they issued the PO for 10 units but at the 50 unit price! at that quantity our per unit cost was more than what their PO was for. they tried to force us to give them the quoted price, but 2 things saved us 1 the different quantity and 2 the quote was valid for only 30 days and they took 60 to get us the PO. since that time we lay the terms out clearly on each quote. sorry this happened to you, and i agree they screwed up(the girl should have verified the price since it was being sold seperately). but if the owner does not want to sell it to you for that price, just get your money back and move on. go buy an el cheapo model to do until you have the 400.00 to get the one you want, then donate the el cheapo to charity and take a tax write off....See MoreOur Story Using TV Shows....The Entire Story Line

Comments (19)My Paypal breach experience: In early August I got both an email and phone call notice a of security breach on my credit card (so they cancelled the card & issued me a new number). Shortly thereafter I got an email notice of a security breach on my Paypal account and asking me to change my password, which I did. I had my Paypal account set up up to be auto-paid by my credit card. Then I got another notice of a security breach on my Paypal account so I just called in and closed the Paypal account. Then I got notice in the mail that ICG America had attackers who had accessed their payment processing system from January 2 to August 2, 2013. ICG America learned of the breach on August 8, 2013. That was the notice that started to put everything together for me. In mid July I had ordered my dad an Amazing Club 6 month gift package. Amazing Club is part of the ICG America family. I don't know how hackers operate, but they know how to make life miserable for many. So, you may want to think of all the places you have used your Paypal account recently or see if something has had a security breach. I don't want to bad mouth Amazing Club. My 82 year old Dad (and my Mom) loved the gift packages that arrived each month. Hackers are the bad guys. Hackers just have a way of infiltrating our lives in ways we'll never know. I'm trying to be more careful with my online browsing & shopping, but it will be an ongoing battle. It made me much more aware and careful with my online shopping habits, password strength, changing passwords, etc....See MoreA kindness that made my day/evening
Comments (30)Thank you all for your expressions of appreciation and your ideas added to the discussion. Rusty ... maybe if I'd looked, there'd have been something in the car that I could have used, had I thought, but the car was a bit of distance away. maifleur ... I can check out your suggestion - thanks ... and do you "see red" often, even lacking the phone? Though I'm not well informed of the complexity of the karmic accounting system, aussie colleen, I'm not sure that one must have given a kind act before one can have any hope of being a beneficiary ... but as I considered where on one's list of priorities the giving and receiving of kind acts might lie, it might be that if it were quite a long way down, that someone who almost never offered any wouldn't expect to receive any. The battery has performed fine since, but this rather suspicious old guy figured that he'd possibly received a "head's up" ... and my garage man told me that I'd got a message that, as mine had so little reserve capability available, that it's time to replace it ... especially with winter coming. (Unless I can find someone in the same situation, afraid to trust his/her battery not to leave her/him stranded on the road in winter, and either s/he gives theirs to me, or I mine to him/her/them, as backup. I have a charger and could make sure that the second battery would be kept charged and ready. As my most recent purchase of a new car was about 40 years ago and I sometimes hitchhike I have needed/appreciated others' help from time to time and feel that offering thanks doesn't discharge the recipient's obligation, that it's essential that one offer help and kindness to others, including folks who don't have an obvious need. ole joyful...See Morecarolb_w_fl_coastal_9b
