You should call the local Police in his town - explain to them what has happened and file a report.
Ask them for advise while you are on the phone.
Get it all on the record.

Then call that guy, and ask for your deposit back - give him your police report number.
Don't be intimidated - you have not done anything wrong.

Then tell him that Cousin Vinnie's gonna be passing thru town and will stop by to pick up the deposit Money.....CASH ONLY.............

If that DIRT BAG had $2000.00 of my money I would send SWEETIE after him! You don't want to get between SWEETIE and HER $$$$! LOL He would look really funny explaining those big ole knots popped up on his head! And If he was man enough to say that a Woman did the damage to him! Hope everything turns out OK with you on this crappy deal.Ebay should suspend his stupid AZZ to boot!

Get all your eggs in one basket and go see your local PD. Provide them with everything you have. THEY should call his local PD and I'm sure their already use to working with ebay cases. I've done a few already and most are resolved. Most PD's will not take a complaint over the phone, espically out of state.

Dan,
If you sent the deposit thru PAYPAL on a card, contact your card company.
In the past I have gotten a refund as a result of proving "non-delivery" / "non-shipment" of purchased product.
That might help get your deposit back.
Hope this might help.

Back in the day... we trained our fair share of "Olive Oil Salesmen"!

An old Railroad Town; this place has plenty of stories they'd rather keep buried.

Under contract law, the non-breaching party (in this case, the seller) has the right to rescind the contract if the parameters of the contract were not met. In this case, the 72 hrs. Under which scenario, there are options, but the only viable one here would be to place both parties in the position they were in before the contract was entered upon. What this means is that, if you attempt to fulfill your obligation under contract and the seller does not allow you to make the contract whole (i.e.: Does not allow you to exercise) he MUST refund your money, and any interest gained on it while he's had the funds. You sound like you're being reasonable, and it sounds like the seller is being unreasonable.

You definitely need to contact a lawyer, and handle this ASAP. People hide behind the veil of e-bay, and you know what-- You'll get no help whatsoever from e-bay. It's the biggest f-ing culprit in this sort of activity because they DO NOTHING, and dirty dirt-mall douchebags know this, and don't abide by the rules of a "reasonable person"-- The court's rule.

In addition, if this dickhead mamma's-boy were to wrangle out of the contract in an attempt to re-sell the car for a profit, YOU would be entitled to the proceeds of the increase in sales price, because you are the rightful owner in the eye's of a court.

Either way dude, get a lawyer. Not saying it's going to help, as some of the most rediculous sh1t you've ever heard passes through court, but it will at least probably get you your money back, and you can move on. What your lawyer will tell you, and what you'll realize, is that it's not worth pursuing this person for anything more than the $2K; it's not like he shot at you or something. The world is filled with sleazy low-rent trashbags; E-bay is where they all congregate.

Chalk it up to a lesson-learned-- Get on a plane and check this junk out first if you're spending money that you worked hard for. If you can't afford to lose the money, don't gamble with it, I always say....

Dan,
We have quite a few cyclists in our area. Just invite this guy to Roodhouse and we'll handle him in our own way. The town and surrounding area is laced with abandoned coal mine shafts. Consequently, there are a number of air shafts still remaining in certain parts of town.

Like I said, this town has some stories..........
