Motorcycle deposit, never took possession of the bike.The bike is still for sale online. Do I have to pay a fee for my refund?: About two weeks ago, I paid $5000 total for a motocycle. The dealer didn't tell me until I got there I would have to pay an additional $715 for tax and tags. I said it would be a month before I would have it. He said he would put the bike upstairs and wait for the additional money. I have since found a cheaper bike. I called the dealer and he said there would be a 10% fee for returning my money. There is nothing on my reciept that states this. Do I have to pay this fee???
Ronald's answer: You probably do because you probably have no right to cancel the contract at all. Some states, however, have a special law that requires fees like a restocking fee or a return fee to be posted on a sign at the counter where you pay your money, but the law is different from state to state. You need to talk to a local Consumer Law attorney who deals with this kind of case. Call your local attorney's Bar Association and ask for a referral to a Consumer Law attorney near you or you can go to this web site page for a Free Online 50 State National List of Consumer Law Lawyers (http://www.ohiolemonlaw.com/ocll-site/ocll-locate_local.shtml) and find one near you (lawyers don’t pay to get listed here and most of them are members of the only national association for Consumer Law lawyers, NACA.net). But act quickly because for every legal right you have, there is only a limited amount of time to actually file a lawsuit in court or your rights expire (it's called the statute of limitations), so don't waste your time getting to a Consumer Law attorney and finding out what your rights are.

any good auto fraud lawyers out there who go against dealers?: My Mazdaspeed 08 caught in flames due to lack of service from the technician when i first took my car for service. the technician failed to reattach a heater hose which caused the fire as told by a private investigator. i had modifications done to the car but the investigators (3rd party source) claim that the modifications had nothing to do with the cause or contribution to the fire mazda of usa is now not helping us because their "expert technician" found that the cause was due to a modification done to the car. i have evidence against them but no lawyer will take the case for various reason. any ideas? suggestions?

Does a verbal agreement stand up in court?: Had a contract with local gym, but membership was suspended due to medical condition. Was told that funds wouldn't be taken out of my account again until medical release was given, but then funds were restarted without my being notified or consent. Is there anything I can legally do?
