86 35 ft BB Question

[Gregory OConnor]

Gail, if there is a rule in Ohio that the deposit mut be returned,
TomW will find it. Sounds like any ebay rules would not apply as you
guys dropped it from the public bidding to make a saleoutside. As
far as having a binding contract. The dealer would have to show
proformance and that is the failure. no proformance , no payment.
Deposits I view as option contracts that roll over to purchase price.
I walk away from them all the time (never 2K). It would be good for
the forum to explore methods to protect yourself from this deception
or misconception (two sides to every story).

Hindsight
fax the dealer/seller the list of Vintage bird buyer questions and
wait for a written fax reply to the issues. the deposit contract
should read that it is nonrefundable ( easer for seller th accept)
but state the reasons ( proformance baced on written statements)
