Unless the store knew that the kit had been used and contained "spores", it was the victim of an unscrupulous return. Perhaps, a strict products liability theory gets you past that hurdle. You then have to prove that your breathing issue was caused by the "spores". Testing on... View More

My car is now going to be totaled and I am now going to be forced to buy a new car I feel like the Parents should be liable for this extreme inconvenience.
