I don't understand what exactly happened here, if it was your friend or not, but I find it a normal way of doing business to ask more information and pictures of a bike I want to buy and when we agree on the price and transaction, not to find another buyer or not selling it anymore.

This is called Gentlemen's agreement.
Good luck with your sales.
