Actually this is a private seller. I wanted a mechanic to test it first, but the seller said nothing was wrong and he insisted on going to the bank to get the money since the bank was going to close and he couldnt wait for the next 2 days because he didnt have a ride back home. I guess I should have treated this like a business deal instead of being nice. So anyway, the seller signed a paper saying that he would refund me the money if the mechanic found a serious problem with the car within the next 2 days. But the thing is, the car never left the sellers driveway so I would think this signifies a serious problem. The guy said the car ran the first time we test drove it and it must have been my dads fault. Honestly, I was led on by greed. The guy lowered the price $200 when we said we werent interested at first because there was damage to the front bumper that the seller said happened the day we arrived to first see the car. This should have been a sign to tell me the guy was a liar.
Anyway, since the car couldnt get out of his driveway, I wanted my money back until a mechanic checked it. He started getting angry and saying thats not how things go. But he did sign a paper stating he would give a refund. I guess he would find a loophole and say a mechanic didnt check it yet and my dad broke it. His mom did agree to give me some of the money back, but made me write a letter stating I would give the remaining money once her mechanic finds that the car is fine. Was this a bad move? Now I dont want the car. I should have kept to my first agreement and have written that the seller promised that nothing was wrong with the car.
