No challenger for you!
 

I caught this on another forum. that dealer is FUCKED.

last I looked, a legally binding contract is between two parties, in this case, the buyer, and the dealer selling what the buyer purchased. this contract binds both parties to honor their part of the deal.

as soon as the dealer is taken to court, I can pretty much already forsee the outcome. if I were this guy, I'd take em to court just on principle and to hell with the car.

then once I won it, do a WICKED burnout leaving the dealership.

I read through 5 pages...no mention of which dealership, though it is in Los Angeles.

I'd of went there and handed them the deposit. lol

Naw dealer aint fucked on this one, he will just play hardball and out lawyer the other guy, maybe some bad press but not enough to hurt bussiness for more than a month if that is even signifigant. The guys best hope is to park a car out front (on a public street or parking lot) and write on his car that the dealership screwed him, that might actually hurt busines.


There was some dude who went through this with a hyundai dealership (hasnt gotten his car yet, nor will he probably ever) and another one over a BMW (that case BMW of america stepped in after numerous calls and a lawsuit, the guy got the car but not for the 60k ebay price). I just dont see this guy winning this car unless he is a lawyer and has the time and money to fight it in court in the jurisdiction where the dealership is located.

That'll teach them to set a sufficient reserve, won't it?
Stupid ebay n00bs.
:whistle:

He won't get the car. No chance.

fuggin ghey. He should just wait a year or two when they resell for under 15k

Its still Bullshit.

You walk into most stores and is the price tage says a dollar and it rings up 2 you bitch and get it for a dollar.

The dealer fucked up...Oh well, There greedy stimey bastards anyway. They should all get fucked over every once in awhile

Even liquor stores?:lol

Was reading that the dealer had a reserve on there at what they wanted, then removed the reserve when the car didnt get the bids they were expecting, the guy won. If he goes to trial (and can afford the eventual legal costs) and can prove that the dealership knowingly removed the reserve price he has a chance at winning, that is if he can afford the legal costs.

The disclaimer says it's a binding contract to buy the car. It doesn't say it's a binding contract for the seller to sell the car. I learned in business law class that a landlord can have a person sign the lease, which binds that person to renting the place, but if the landlord doesn't sign, he's not bound to renting the place out to that person. Now, that being said, if the landlord lets the person take possession of the place, it's considered that he also accepted the lease, but until they take possession, the landlord isn't held to renting to that person. I imagine the same thing goes here, but would have to read eBay's rules.

Regardless, the dealership won't honor it and they'll just accept the bad feedback and close their seller account. I bet someone is getting an ass chewing, though. :lol:

The majority of contract law is offer and acceptance, written or implied by action. I would wager they did not want the bad publicity from a lawsuit and whatever consequences that they would run with E Bay's attornies...

Dude actually got the car? Musta been that the manufacturer stepped in and told them to do the right thing.

I would turn around and re-list that bitch and make some cash.

He got a good deal, but I doubt that challengers are are in such a demand that it would sell very quick.

Considering he won the auction for 29k I would say you're right.

Exactly. Some of you guys are acting like there's a million people out there willing to pay a lot more, for a sight-unseen gas guzzler in today's economy.

How much does an SRT8 normally retail for? It can't be more than low 40's, can it? If so, I don't see what the big deal is.

Sight unseen? It's a new car on a dealer lot. There were pics in the ebay ad. It's not like it's a 1960's challenger sitting in a barn.

And yes, they retail for low to mid 40's. He got it for 29k because the dealer fucked up and removed the reserve on the ebay ad. How is 10 or 12k not a big deal on a 40k+ car?

Because there's tons of other cars you can buy for a substantial discount these days :shrug:

Including motorcycles. Brand new 09 ZX6R's and 1000rr's for only $7K? Yep.

32% off sticker is nothing to sneeze at. Also, thousands of guys have paid sticker for the same car ($40k+), so yeah, it is a big deal.

Well that is good that the dealer stepped up and honoured the deal(even if it was pressured by the internet).
