A young woman knocked at my door during the week our county fair was going on. She said she was selling magazine subscriptions for a school club she belonged to, and that the girls had been pitted against the boys. She read off a list of magazines I could choose from and showed me information out of a book. It all looked like it was on the up and up, so I signed up for the Photography magazine for two years (this was the minimum time available).
She was extremely warm and personable, very easy to talk with, and told me stories about my neighbors and how much they had purchased from her. I was, and continue to be, unemployed, so giving her $71 was not easy for me, but I liked her so much that I figured I could work it into my budget somehow.
Ten weeks later, I have yet to receive any magazine, and there is no valid contact information on the receipt she gave me. I feel cheated, and I'm really upset about it.
