I had not exchanged anything, nor did I agree to. I wanted a refund. I returned the items to the store within the time frame quoted on the receipts, but since I paid cash the store manager decided to give me a hard time and denied the refund. During the smalls claims hearing the store owner said...

I already did; I returned the merchandise to his store manager the first week of December. He has had everything all this time (along with my cash payment). He offered a 10% discount and he waived the sales tax if I paid cash, so I did, to the tune of $2,096. Boy, did that teach me a lesson...

Hello again. Alas, the arbitrator did not list any reason. Aside from her signature and the date, the only other mark was a check in the box giving the judgment to the defendant. Her chatty, flirty behavior at the end aside, I suspect that she may have taken the path of least resistance and...

My jurisdiction is: New York, NY Hello all, I hope my note finds you doing well. I was let go from my job on Wednesday, 11/5/08. The man I worked for said he just did not feel our personalities clicked (i.e., I was not like his former assistant of 40 years, before he moved from Boston to work...
