Is your "word" something to trust?

I had a friend that found a 30th Anniversary LT-4 Camaro and made a deal with the seller. (He even sent a deposit to the seller to hold the Camaro for him.) The friend calls the seller back and he is told he sold the Camaro to another buyer for a higher price! How can someone do this while holding a deposit? I value my "word" when I give it to someone! This was wrong in my opinion!
I thought I would post this and see what you guys and gals think of this.
