> What I believed was implicit in our "agreement" There is nothing implicit in an agreement - it is either explicit or misunderstood. Sorry about the deal gone sour, Phil, but let's face it, there are a lot of different kinds of people out there and the necessity of dealing with them (say, when they have something you want) makes it advisable to cover all the bases when making arrangements. In more rigorous deals it's called "due diligence". I know you expected this to be a much friendlier situation; the trouble is that the seller had no idea that you would turn up for sure, or buy the car, and he wanted to sell it. Someone bought it. Rude? Yes, but this is America. Rude and crude are our national heritage unfortunately. It's how a nation got carved out of a wilderness (conveniently ignoring the previous tenants) in just a couple of hundred years. At least it wasn't a house. Don't worry, you'll find your dream car soon I'm sure. -- Huw Powell http://www.thebook.com/human-speakers
