A defect is redhibitory when it renders the thing useless, or its use so inconvenient that it must be presumed that a buyer would not have bought the thing had he known of the defect. The existence of such a defect gives a buyer the right to obtain rescission of the sale.

A defect is redhibitory also when, without rendering the thing totally useless, it diminishes its usefulness or its value so that it must be presumed that a buyer would still have bought it but for a lesser price. The existence of such a defect limits the right of a buyer to a reduction of the price. [Acts 1993, No. 841, §1, eff. Jan. 1, 1995]


I think this may be useful... Thanks for the advice, very much appreciated. I'm pretty sure she has her mind made up on getting a new setting, just hoping for help from the seller...
