Product: Credit card

I purchased a refrigerator from Sears and the unit malfunctioned. Per the below rundown, I requested return of the refrigerator well within Sears-specified policy but was stonewalled ( the claim is not each request I made was not documented by the Sears phone agent ) until the 30-day return period was expended. Then, the 30-day return policy was quoted as reason of the non-return. Sears then refused to refund. Because of Sears ' dishonesty, the refrigerator was in my house when the flood disaster struck. I am now being compelled to pay Sears credit for the non-existent refrigerator. Please help.
