Quoted from Barakawins1:I had a similar issue with the seller. Committed to buying a Star Wars upright arcade game. When time came to pick up, already sold from under me.
Best thing to do is send a deposit with the seller so they don't back out.
Who's to say they aren't going to back out once they get a deposit? I hate receiving a deposit for a game I am selling and I'm not going to give a stranger any money without having the item right there in front of me. If it sells, so be it. not worth losing out on money or going through the hassle of someone wanting their deposit back if they back out on the purchase. I know I'm in the minority here, but I like to hold my money close.
