i agree, but if said contract violates existing law its worth going to court… if it was a very large deposit

EDIT: which i see there is not

If you made the deposit with a credit card i’d try reversing the charges

I made a deposit on a car in conn. and didn’t have a problem getting it back.

I thought you had the right to refuse a car at delievery, i guess that doesn’t mean you have a right to your deposit back tho
