§ 6-28-5. Seller's obligations on cancellation.
(a) Within twenty (20) days after a door-to-door sale has been cancelled, the seller shall
tender to the buyer any payments made by the buyer and any note or other evidence
of indebtedness. Any security interest arising out of the transaction will be canceled.
(b) If the downpayment includes goods traded in, the goods shall be tendered in substantially
as good condition as when received. If the seller fails to tender the goods as provided
by this section, the buyer may elect to recover an amount equal to the trade-in allowance
stated in the agreement.
(c) The seller may retain as a cancellation fee five percent (5%) of the cash price; five
dollars ($5.00); or the amount of the cash down payment, whichever is least. If the
seller fails to comply with an obligation imposed by this section, or if the buyer
avoids the sale on any ground independent of his right to cancel under § 6-28-3, the seller is not entitled to retain a cancellation fee.
(d) Until the seller has complied with the obligations imposed by this section, the buyer
may retain possession of goods delivered to him or her by the seller and has a lien
on the goods for any recovery to which the buyer is entitled.
