I agree but I said to him that I would confirm this evening which I would have. He agreed.
Everything was ready to go. I just feel let down by someone who knew I wanted the wheels and wouldn’t wait for what amounted to about 3 hours.
The fact they were sold to someone at his work might even suggest the sale was premeditated and that selling to me was never going to happen.
Selling something to buy something else is always risky and as a seller it puts you in a position of not knowing if or when it will actually happen. Dibs is nice and all but until you put cash in hand nothing is certain, especially if the seller knows you don't actually have the cash at the time.
