<p>[QUOTE="TopcatCoin, post: 1665230, member: 22746"]I absolutely hate hearing about an elderly person getting ripped off. As others have suggested, I would bring your friend and the receipt back to the store and graciously request her money back. If he refuses, I would then state that you will be seeking legal assistance as this is obviously a case of an elderly person getting taken advantage of and you need advice on how to proceed (do not mention law suit). I also like the idea of talking to a local reporter but do not state to the owner that you are doing this as it can be viewed as a threat, whereas stating that you will be seeking legal assistance to evaluate your options is not. My guess is that he will either return her money or will give you an option of a partial refund. If not, most lawyers will give free initial consultations. I really hope you do not have to go that route though. Good luck! You are a good person to assist. Keep us posted on what happens. TC[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
