So thursday last week I bought Climax off of Kyle at Crank it up Diesel. I gave him a 2k deposit on Visa over the phone. I gave him his 30k asking and he agreed to put an S480 on the truck with a billet wheel. Well I called him today to say I was coming to pick the truck up on this Thursday and guess what he sold the truck on Sat. He said someone gave him an offer he couldn't refuse. I'm so pissed right now it's unbelievable, a deal is a deal, he said I beat him up so bad WTF. It had an S400 on it and he upgraded the turbo to an S480 with a billet wheel for the price the was asking. Here's the email confirming it.

Dave, That is correct. I have a gilloteen style air shutoff that would mount to the turbo. I can send you pictures Monday evening or Tuesday morning. Nice talking to you and look forward to meeting you as well.

Was also wondering if it has an air knife as I need one. It was really nice talking with you tonight and thanks for explaining things to me. Looking forward to meeting you and picking up the truck.> > Forest Lawn Farms Ltd. Dave Snyder

That's the way I was brought up. It takes alot to upset me but Kyle has done it. If I didn't have the email and Visa as proof he could say I was lieing but why make a deal and not follow through. He said he sold it on Sat and he doesn't even bother calling me. WTF

Damn that is shady! I would be totally pissed too. Did you get the 2k deposit back? I guess deposits don't even guarantee anything anymore.

When I talked to Visa it hadn't been credited but she says it takes a few day to show up. I would think the email and payment would be enough to verify things.

I never got them yet and I kind of cancelled them. I think I'm just going to get them and run my truck. I really want an ODL truck if I was going to buy anything now.

Legally, you can enforce a verbal contract that has a deposit.

If you really want Climax, you get a lawyer to draft a letter to Kyle.

But pragmatically, let it go. Lawyers are pretty useless even if you're in the right.

And in general, buying used stuff from somebody with poor morals isn't really a good idea.

I'd put this issue on all the popular boards though. Paybacks are a girl dog...:lildevil:
