Mark sez, “Now there’s a EULA when you check out of Home Depot. In order to check out with the cashier, I had to sign an credit card receipt saying I had been given the opportunity to read ‘customer agreement #156326.’ Of course, the agreement was nowhere in sight.”
Sounds like that slip is ripe for a Reasonable Agreement sticker.
(Thanks, Mark!)
Update: Abelard sez, ” As a former employee of HD, I bear them no great love, but the slip Mark
was
asked to sign is spit out when you do a transaction that involves the
‘Special Services’ desk – i.e. either a special order, a delivery or a
will call.
“In all three cases the customer agreement is assigned a unique number (in
his
case, #156326) and is printed on letter-sized paper with the particulars
of the order (items, colors, delivery date, etc.). This sheet also has
disclaimers, such as ‘We deliver curbside only, we won’t go into your
house’ and ‘Yes, I truly do want a fire-engine-red bidet and I know I
can’t return it.’
“We used to get the customer to sign off on the 8.5 X 11 and we would keep a
copy, but someone decided it would be easier or more efficient to do this
at the checkout.
“If he didn’t get a copy of the customer agreement, then his salesperson did
a
bad job (I sure hope he knows what he just paid for, too!).”
