Benefit of the doubt till we know what happened. Possibly he had a family emergency. Either way though he should make it right and bring the parts to you now, and maybe knock a few bucks off.

I'm not mad or anything.i understand things happen beyond our control.I did have a good drive down and back even though the temperature was 96 and NO I never use the AC that is why the wife stayed home and went shopping.It would have been a more pleasant drive in the Boxster but the parts would have been to large to haul.I was just curious how others would have handled it.

happens all the time,part of the game. My suggestion is with long distance, halfway is as far as i will go. If the dont meet halfway I imediatly go after price or no deal
