Michigan does too. And I've heard of some places going after the private party reseller/gougers who clear the store shelves. Remember 9-11-2001? When the price of gas went up 50 cents in one day, while cars lined up in the streets, and gasoline wholesellers told the retailers that they didn't know when or at what price they could deliver more? Michigan's Attorney General, Jennifer Granholm, sent out demand letters to all the gas stations, basically saying 'you'll give refunds to anybody who asks for them, no proof of purchased required, or I'll bankrupt you in the courts'. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
