Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
In August of 2010, I purchases a bedroom set. The furniture store and I agreed that they would run my card and take half the payment on the spot and then the other half on delivery. The delivery was made and I assumed the payment was made. It is now Jan 2012, and they just called me to inform me I still owed half the payment. I checked my bank records and they are correct, only half the payment came out. My question is: since they were supposed to run the card a second time and they did not, am I still liable for the second half?

You are liable but the question is what can they do about it. The answer is they can sue you and the statute of limitations has not run thus they would likely be successful and it would cost extra for all kinds of expenses . . .
