In Ohio...they are required to give back your personal belongings. This does not include anything that is a permanent fixture on/in the car...like a stereo system or rims. If they refuse to give back your personal belongings...I would contact an attorney and pursue legal action.

Can you return a car bought on a personal loan when you were told it was on finance?

Have the car voluntarily repossessed. Using this option means that you voluntarily return the car to the finance loan company if you are too far behind on your payments and can't recover. If you decide to return the car, the finance company may pick up the vehicle or it may require that you return the car to its location.

What can you do when a repossession company will not return your personal belongings unless you pay a charge and will the police help you in getting your things back?

It depends on which state you live in, so check the law. In Florida, anything inside a towed or repossessed car is still the property of the owner. The repo company may have a right to take back what property they own by default (in this case, you car for non-payment); however, they have no legal right to keep your other property or charge you for its return. That is considered theft. You can call your local PD or courthouse and they can tell you what to do. If it is considered theft in your state, call the police and they will respond to the repo company to help you retreive your property.


Can you change your mind about buying custom made furniture after a deposit has been made?

There is nothing to stop you from changing your mind. The question is whether the company will return your deposit. Usually, a company will want to keep its customers happy, and will work with them in good faith. Still, it does not mean they are obligated to return the deposit. Just act appropriately, explain your situation, and hopefully they will have no problem returning your money.
