Found a nice Peterbilt on EBay WITH A POSTED " 265" WHEELBASE " that no one bid on. Called the buyer AFTER auction ENDED and he gave me a price. I sent a non-refundable deposit on a truck that STATED IN BLACK AND WHITE that it had a 265" wheelbase. Flew all the way out to Columbus, OH with balance of funds in hand to pick up the truck, had it insured, etc., etc. and found the wheel base was LESS THAN 265" and that was the entire purpose I was going to purchase it. The guy brings me back to the airport APOLOGIZING right and left, over and over, telling me 20 times he WOULD send back my deposit and I TRUSTED HIM (mistake) because he KEPT saying he would (and I am a sucker in trusting people). Well, got a letter from him stating a change in mind and he "held up his end of the deal", so he is going to keep my $500. He will NOT answer his phone and I wrote a letter he HAS rec'd which states that IF THE TRUCK WAS WHAT HE HAD SAID and I backed out, keep the deposit, BUT the truck was NOT as stated. In the meantime, his truck was RE-LISTED with EBAY and the "265" wheelbase" was OMITTED in the NEW listing and it sold. Anyone have any suggestionS?
