I had a dealer sell a car out from underneath me a few years ago. The car that I was trying to buy was not available locally, but I found one in Pensacola, so I gave them my credit card and put $500 down on it with the understanding that I would be there in a week to pick it up. I stayed in contact with the sales guy the whole time and was never informed it was sold until I showed up on their doorstep ready to haul the car back to the Houston area.I would have been upset but it only took 26 days from order to delivery so I couldn’t have been too mad.
I always look at things like that as “it will be a good story someday”. Perhaps I’ve mellowed too much in my old age lol.
Yeah, I was a bit pissed...
