        This court is similarly guided by the “general equitable principles” cited in Jensvold and
Gregory and which were not specific to § 2093. In so doing, the court endeavors to balance the
CPA’s myriad goals to “deter future misconduct,” “educate consumers or vendors,” and
“promote a more honest and open marketplace” while encouraging “a commercial environment
highlighted by integrity and fairness.” Madowitz v. Woods at Killington Owners' Ass'n, Inc.,
2014 VT 21, ¶ 30, 196 Vt. 47 (citations omitted). As such, the consumer must be made whole by
either damages or restitution, while seller misconduct is deterred by forcing the seller to return
any ill-gotten gains, but no more.
