An attorney would need to review the terms of sale. Relevant considerations would be the contract terms, which state's laws apply, and whether there was a mutual mistake.

If you did not hire the contractor then I don't think you have a legal basis to sue the contractor. But I believe it is worth looking into suing the sellers for violation of Missouri's Merchandising Practces Act (MPA). Here's a blog article that I wrote. Beware, Missouri's... Read more »
