Document Summary

Part 1: some notes on consumer protection legislation. Note: any areas set out in this summary, but not explained should be learned from the text. These are collection agencies, and granting credit and credit reporting. The sale of goods act does not deal with the sale of consumer goods (goods used for private use) which are now protected by consumer protection legislation. Such itinerant sellers usually try to pressure/force the home owner in to entering into a contract for the purchase of the goods being sold. In the past, once the contract was entered into, the homeowner was stuck with the contract. Another area has to do with what are called unfair business practices. One such practice has to do with car repairs. A second unfair business practice deals with collection agencies and prohibits such agencies from harassing, pressuring or threatening a debtor in any way, including trying to get payment from a member of the debtor"s family.
