Someone is extremely mad

Sadly, these days, a person's word is worth as much as the paper it's written on. With very few exceptions, the days of a handshake deal are long gone.

If they ever really existed. You may have made handshake deals Steve, as others no doubt have, but ask any serious businessman and he'll tell you his first rule is "trust no one." Money talks and bull$hit walks. If you want to score a "yard find" '66 427 Corvette you'd better step-up fast with real cash in your hand. Otherwise a faster, more serious shark with cash in-hand (in his bloody teeth!) is gonna' make the deal. Handshake deals are okay but with strangers I'll bet you moved quickly so as to make sure the other guy honored his end of the handshake.
