(815 ILCS 375/13) (from Ch. 121 1/2, par. 573)
Sec. 13.
The seller shall deliver to the buyer a copy of the retail
installment contract signed by the seller. Any acknowledgment by the buyer
of delivery of a copy of the contract must be printed or written in a size
equal to at least 10 point bold type and, if contained in the contract,
must appear directly above the legend required above the buyer's signature
by Section 3. The buyer's written acknowledgment of
delivery of a copy of the contract conforming to the requirements of this
Act is conclusive proof of the delivery and of compliance with
this
Section in any action by or against an assignee of the contract without
knowledge to the contrary when he purchases the contract. Until the seller
delivers a copy of the contract to him or her, a buyer who has
not received delivery of the motor vehicle has the
right to cancel his agreement and to receive a refund of all payments made
and a return of all goods traded in to the seller on account of or in
contemplation of the contract, or, if those goods cannot be returned, the
value thereof. However, this Section does not apply when the merchandise
has been specially ordered or custom made to the specifications of the
purchaser and evidence of such order is provided by the seller.
