don't deal with this guy,first we have a deal and i am sending a money order and then he trys to back out cause someone else wanted to use pay-pal and then we had it worked out again and at the last minute he decides to back out and sell local so he does not have to ship.
a deal is a deal and you are only as good as your word.

He has a right to sell it to anybody he wants. He said he pm'd the guy and told him so I don't see where he did any wrong.

No, actually If I put something up for sale for $100.00 and you say you will buy it and I say ok, thats a deal. And then later even if someone offers me $150.00 I would actually be breaking a contract by not selling it to you. It is something you could take to court, and won, but you would still end up losing money, better to just drop it.Originally posted by AtvMxRider

It becomes more of a matter of business and personal ethics than anything.

It is ridiculous to soil this guys reputation because you thought there was a "deal" in place. It is the sellers perogative to pull a deal off the table at any time. There is no deal until money changes hands. People will be wary to do business with you based on your petty reaction to a failed transaction. If he took your money and didn't deliver, that is another story.
As for the $100 - $150 argument... That's even more ridiculous.

Contracts are promises that the law will enforce. The law provides remedies if a promise is breached or recognizes the performance of a promise as a duty. Contracts arise when a duty does or may come into existence, because of a promise made by one of the parties. To be legally binding as a contract, a promise must be exchanged for adequate consideration. Adequate consideration is a benefit or detriment which a party receives which reasonably and fairly induces them to make the promise/contract. For example, promises that are purely gifts are not considered enforceable because the personal satisfaction the grantor of the promise may receive from the act of giving is normally not considered adequate consideration. Certain promises that are not considered contracts may, in limited circumstances, be enforced if one party has relied to his detriment on the assurances of the other party.
The seller rec'd no consideration for the verbal promise, therefore no contract exists!
