The Agent Withheld My Wedding Deposit
I bought a million-dollar set of gold as my bridal accessories at the jewelry store. The wedding date was fast approaching, but the pieces still had not arrived.
I personally went to the store to pick it up, but the sales assistant said the price of gold had increased, and I had to make up the price difference.
“In the past two weeks, the price of gold has risen by $98 per gram. Since you purchased 1,314 grams, the price difference amounts to $128,772, which rounds up to $130,000.”
She showed the number on the calculator to me, and I became speechless.
“Two weeks ago, I already paid the full payment. You said the store provides the delivery service, so I did not take it with me. This is a scam!”
The sales assistant looked at me with a scornful expression. “We’ve been in business for ten years, and we do honest deals only. Keep running your mouth off, and I swear I’ll sue you for defamation!”
What she said had reminded me that the ten-year lease contract that I signed with them had expired.
I immediately took out my phone and called her boss.
“From this year onward, the rental cost will increase by 50%. If you can’t afford the rental cost, move out immediately!”
“Why?”
I sneered and said, “You’ll have to ask your staff then!”
