Actually from a money and business standpoint I don't see the logic. Most people in business put a dollar figure to their time. Lets say even $30.00/hour (a very very cheap rate in this business) Now I spend 2 hours doing some prep time for this, 3 hours talking with a Lawyer about how I should go about handling this, and yes when you go to small claims you should still consult a lawyer before hand to be sure that you have a strong case. The next thing could be anywhere from 1 to 6 hours waiting for you case to be heard, and another hour or so presenting it. Lets do the math 2 hours prep, + 3 hours Lawyer, plus lets say 2 hour wait for court + 1 hour court time = 8 hours spent x $30.00 = $240.00 lost because you took NSI to court over a $35.00 refund. And this does not include lawyer fees, and court fees. The easiest way to handle this, as others have said, is to simply do a charge back on your credit card. No mess, no fuss, and no having to deal with NSI! "Michael L. Dean" wrote: > > going to court is not about money, it is about justice.
