My neighbor bought a monitor from an electronics super store and found that it was defective after taking it home. She also found that there were two layers of packaging tapes on the box suggesting that it had been returned by another customer. Since she doesn't drive she had to take a cab back to the store to return the monitor the next day. She told the store manager that it was a fraud to sell a returned item as new and demanded that he gives her a refund for the monitor and pays the cab fare of over $50. The manager admitted that the monitor had been returned by another customer and issued her a refund for it but refused to pay the cab fare. Now she's thinking about taking this matter to a small claim-court but does she have a case against this store ? If the answer is yes, will she also be able to get them to pay her cab fare of over $100 for her trips to and from the court ? Thanks in advance for your help.
