Getting screwed over at the tanning salon..

Spoolin335 · 04-30-2009, 05:47 PM

So at the beginning of last year i bought 400 minutes at a tanning salon, since then i have gone maybe 10 times and used 100 minutes.

The owner of the salon of whom i bought my minutes from sold the place to a new owner. I called today to make an appointment and i was told my minutes have expired!
I was like wtf are you talking about.... she told me when she bought the place a month ago she signed a contract with the former owner stating she doesnt have to honor the minutes until after a certain date.

She told me she posted a few signs around the salon when she bought it stating all old minutes will expire a month after she bought the place. I have not been in since then and have not seen the signs.

I told her that i did not sign any contract stating i was ok or aware of my minutes expiring at a certain date. She says that if i want my minutes i have to go after the old owner for my money back.

Is she allowed to do this? i am pretty sure unless i was aware of or was told my minutes were going to expire when i bought them, that they cant just take them away.
Do i have any legal grounds to get them back? or just say fuck it and go somewhere else?

Any lawyers on here want to chime in, please do!

Guido. Tanning beds are for pussies and bimbos.

But losing your money is pretty lame

.

...but seriously, that shit is bad for you.

What a shitty deal, I would give this lady some mob style intimidation. A horses head in the tanning machine should set her straight.

Generally speaking in the US, if you buy a business, you are also buying the obligations of the business. Don't know about Canada.
