Hey Sally!

I'm hangin' in there.

I'm getting close to contacting an attorney ......remember I was supposed to get new carpet, paid a very large amount of money in July since it was a "special order." Took forever for the carpet to come in, had a installation date of Sept. 17 and 2 days before that I get a call to not clear out rooms.

The other carpet store he had in another town was "locked" down for tax reasons and his funds frozen. He was supposed to call us after meeting with the appropriate people......never heard from him.

Anyway, we have since been in contact with the Corporate office and they are working with us however, they have sent us a letter from their attorneys that will need to be signed before we either get a refund or carpet.

The part I don't care for.......this carpet company is a franchise so each one is individually owned. Corporate will not null and void the original purchase agreement so I need to make sure, with an attorney, that the original purchase agreement can not be enforced if the guy ever reopens his stores which is highly unlikely since he is in a heep of trouble.

But I also don't know if in the event someone else takes over the business if that person(s) can enforce the purchase agreement.

We never saw this coming......we have done business with this carpet company before, about 2 years ago.
