I got this mango tree from a local store its about 4ft tall, the tree it self is ok but the spot where the new leaves are suppose to be growing is kind of dead dried up. my question is should i return it or shoud i cut of the dried spot and let new branches grow????

If the "dried spot" you mean is at the top of the tree, thats normal. If you have a tree thats now just a single whipstick then prune (cut) the top inch or two off and then give it some time to grow. When it does you'll get several branches this takes a month or two to happen so be patient.
