Quoted from T7:It doesn't seem right, it appears to boil down to this...
- you sent a deposit (how much is unknown)
- he said you had until July 25th (7/4 + 21 days)
- you ultimately got to the point of saying - I'll pick it up between 7/18 - 7/22
- he cancels and refunds your deposit on 7/9
Most likely scenario... Somebody offered him more $$$ and the seller took it.
The sellers actions pretty much negate 50% of the purpose of a deposit - doesn't it?
The seller agreed to give the buyer 3 weeks, he should have given him the three weeks as agreed upon. That's would I would have done, if I gave someone my word I would have stuck to it. Integrity is everything.
