How's his form !?

[gtrken]

Small rant from me.

Contact a guy in Melbourne re. buying his GTR and a deal is struck.

Sent of $1K deposit as a show of good faith and tell him I will be there Wednesday10th.

Rings me today and says that unless I can get there before Saturday he is selling the car for $500 more to a guy coming from Sydney.

I had already booked tickets etc to fly there from Adelaide and reiterated that he was happy with the price 4 days prior and that the guy from Sydney had sent nothing except promises.

All to no avail. He promised to send the deposit back which I should get Friday.

Thing that shits me is I thought that once a price was agreed and a deposit paid , the deal was done and this is how I have always conducted my business.

Bloody annoying !!!

So anyone know of any worked GTR's in Melbourne around $30K

* Rant off*

Cheers

Ken

sorry to hear ken, hope u get another fully worked GTR soon

[adam 32]

once the deposit is down do you have any legal claim to the vehicle? sorry to hear tho - what a bastard

[Kyles]

Ken, keep the plane tickets and go there and kick some toosh!!!

[gtrken]

If it went to court along with the email printouts , I may have a bit of a case but the only winners are the lawyers.

No , I will just write it off as a bad experience. Mind you , if the deposit does not get returned , I have the plane ticket and I know where he works....

Cheers

Ken:D

[skyzerr33]

[gtrken]

I agree ken, the deal was done. Unfortunately people swap and change on here as they can hide behind the internet and their computers.

[(B1) MR_fanny]

Ken, im studyin contract law this semester and if u haf email agreements, and he agreed to sell you the car at a particular price, and you sent a deposit, your deposit if your consideration for his promise to sell the car @ that price and i can quote u at least 3 cases that are exactly similar in facts to yrs and the ratio decedendi is that.....

the guy has to sell to you!!

As said by Streamer, the guy is locked into the sale once a deposit is laid. That's the point in a deposit.

I heard through secondary sources that something exactly the same happened recently in our own lovely Perth, went to court and some reimbursement was settled, covering court costs too.

Was it with anyone on this forum?

Sorry to hear mate!

[GTS-t VSPEC]

The guy is a prick, I hope he never sells the car.

Ken, I'm sure the other one will end up being better:D
