I have bought and sold cars, trucks, bikes, etc. for over 30 years, and I have always put a man at his word. You strike the deal, shake hands, and look him in the eye, done deal. This last year or so it seems that doesn't mean much anymore, I have had a bunch of guys back out, not show up, that kind of thing. Today was the last straw, guy looked at my 69 C10 last night, called me this morning said he'd take it. I said "you sure?" "Yep be there about 5 or 6, we gotta deal" About 4 this guy calls with some cockamamie story and is backing out. I'm done! Deposit in cash or it's for sale! So new rule: No more Gentleman's Agreements! There aren't enough Gentleman left in the world!!!!
