More details to this question:
I was with my girlfriend and I paid for her dress rental (for an event 2 weeks away). As soon as we left the building she told me she didn't want the dress and was intimidated by the clerk. I walked back in and asked that the credit card charge be reversed and was told "no refunds". The dress never left the building and no alterations were made. I asked to cancel our rental within 5 minutes of paying the bill. Can we get a refund?

Your rights pursuant to the rental agreement should be set forth in the rental agreement. Read the rental agreement to see if the charge is nonrefundable. Document your efforts to notify the store of the cancellation as soon as possible and of the store's efforts to mitigate any alleged damages. Nonetheless the most straightforward mechanism to challenge the charge is with your credit card company. If you are charged for the dress and unsuccessful in challenging the charge, you should seek to have your girlfriend cover the charge.
