Get It In Writing

You have to get contracts and agreements in writing today, as the old-fashioned handshake is a thing of the past.

I purchased an SUV at one time that was supposed to be AWD and had a six-cylinder engine. The SUV was a four-cylinder and FWD. Thank goodness I had a witness with me when I purchased the vehicle. I had the sales manager sign a piece of paper saying they would make things right with me. The other people in the Co. did not know I had a signed letter from the sales manager and refused to do anything. When I faxed them a copy of the signed letter, they made things right after a two-month wait. I ended up with a one-year newer AWD drive SUV, but I still got the four-cylinder engine. You do not have a leg to stand on without a witness or something in writing.

My friends got a different vehicle color than the one they purchased. I have a friend that bought an air conditioner for his store, but they did not hook it up to electricity. They told him he had to have his electrician hook it up. Anyone would think they would hook up an air conditioner when you purchased one. Why would you buy an air conditioner to look at it daily in the hot sweltering heat?

I was getting a loan at a bank one day and trying to read over the fine print. The banker said that was unimportant, so I started to cross that part of the contract off, and ly, suddenly, it became essential. Be very proactive in all of your purchases. All others must sign a written agreement or contract with God, We Trust.
