    Well if it is a loose contract I will let the other potential buyer now. In general buyers understand and you give them a chance to make a counter offer.

    BUT in my experience a guy promised me wheels and I told him I was going to make a 100+ mile drive to get them. He said thats fine come get them. After I had made the trip he says he has another offer. Well he gave me his word, and I wasted like $50 on gas and lost $200 by not working those days. Then he pulls thhis shit? He could justify selling the wheels to someone else, going back on his word, and costing me $250 all so he could get a little more money. Tell me is that messed up or no?

    see now thats different.
    He never made the trip, i wouldnt do something like that.
    I let him know almost a week out before he had planed on coming down. No harm no foul? i guess not.

    Oh sorry. I am not trying to say you are a bad seller. I was just commenting on sellers and money. I dont really know what happened with you two but it doesnt seem like he lost any money over this. I may be missing something.
