Here are the two puffers i have left after one died:
This is the one that i think may not make it, following the footsteps of his fellow puffer, he isnt very active anymore;

The first one looks thin.
Hmmm.

How long have you had them?
Internal parasites maybe? Is the first one eating okay?

If you plan to get your money back, the LFS will probably ask for the dead fish and a sample of water for them to test.

There isn't a way to tell if there is soap in the water that I know of, other than knowing whether you may have introduced any into the water (i.e. cleaning the tank with soap, not rinsing your hands well enough before putting them in the tank).

Is your tank cycled? How new is it?
