▪ Getting a good deal is not only about price. Negotiating the terms and conditions of the sales agreement is also fundamental.
▪ Any sales conditions agreed upon between the couple and the supplier should be clearly written on the contract of sale.
▪ Paying a deposit is a binding commitment to purchasing a particular product or service.
▪ In change-of-mind situations a deposit may only be recuperated if the terms and conditions of the sales contract allow for such a possibility.
▪ Refunds can only be legally claimed if it is the trader who fails to honour the sales agreement.
