Sale of Goods act From: "dbcallaghan@gmail. com" <dbcallaghan@gmail. com> Date: 11 March 2010 Subject: Customer Enquiry Reason for enquiry (header) - General Reason for enquiry (specific) - Other Comments - Hi I bought a PSP from you around 2008 (slim & lite version - it had been out a few months). It has developed a fault that prevents it from turning on. As the unit is around 2 years old I suggest that, under the Sale of Goods act, you should offer to replace, repair or refund. I look forward to your response. Kindest regards David Callaghan edgehill. ac. uk/ls
