Why is it that people want to sell a car until you try to give them cash?

  1. He should have called you before you made the trip, but he didn't since changing your mind doesn't break the law! don't think their isn't a few members here that have what i call a "hollow word" first they want a deal and on credit plus deliver at your expense deliver then send email they changed their mind wanting you to pick up stuff at your expense! FUCK THAT!

    I really wish I still had my 56 Chev 210, with the Ford 9 inch, muncie 4 speed, 68 vet motor, new interior........

    Too bad I was a dumb 19 year old and when some guy drove up and asked what I would want for it I gave him a price.

    He then pulled the money out of his wallet and said you have a deal.

    He did let me drive it home to get the title.

    Lessons learned, don't name a price if you don't want to lose it and always keep your word.

    Not yet! The way I was raised you don't screw your friends over. Never get between a man and his money, his wife, or his dog. But you're right, I got my deposit money and I am only out 6 hours of time, the lost opportunity on another truck, and a lot of running around. As for the friend/neighbor that stuck his nose in where it didn't belong, now I know what kind of person he has turned into and I will write him off. He will call for help again or will need a "hook up" on parts, like he always does and I'll tell him to go pound sand. I will also warn all the people I deal with not get involved in any deals with these two yahoos. No reason for anybody else to have go thru all the headache and hassle.
