W. H. F. C., Inc. v. Preston
Opinion of the Court
Appellant brought this action to recover $625.08, alleged to be due as the balance on the sale to appellee of a combination radio and record player.
Appellee’s defense was that he went to appellant’s store and agreed to purchase a set after being told that its price was $199.-95, that he made a down payment of $30 and signed a blank contract form; that he was told the contract would be completed later and that the total price, including a one-year service charge and carrying charges would be around $250; that about a week and a half after receiving the set he received a payment book showing the price of the set to be $499.95, with a total price, including carrying charges of $98.98, of $655.08; that he called appellant and told
At the conclusion of the testimony the trial court announced it was not impressed by the testimony of either of appellant’s two witnesses, and it believed the appellee was telling the truth. The court then found that appellee’s signature to the contract had been obtained by fraud and denied any recovery on the contract. We find no error.
Affirmed.
