This is what, IMO, makes this section of the AB FTA useless in this situation. This part of the act relates to direct sellers (door to door salesman) and was enacted to stop some of their shady activities. It wouldn't apply in this case, as it was purchased at the seller's normal place of business. |
It would appear that the third point would apply here, wouldn't it? It sounds like that "clause" was included to prevent businesses from reneging on B2B deals, but seems to cover personal purchases. Edit: unless, of course, all three points need to be met.
