But I would also write to the chairman of the board that I didn't believe that a sales cannot be voided; there has to be somebody in authority with the ability to do so. I resent being taken for a sucker.
I refuse to play into these games too. I've gotten burned too many times in the past. I don't buy into the line, "Oh, no no... that's just for your convenience. It will be charged the correct amount." It's equivalent to the rental car places where they say, "Oh, that's damage is small. Don't worry about it." Then you go to return the car and they try to blame you for the damage. People say I'm being paranoid with some of these things, but I like to cover my bases. It's no different with DCC.
