Sorry to here LOTO. I found another Apache for sale after you and I were looking at that one. We agreed on a price and I put a deposit in and set up the survey. I get a call from the broker a few days later saying that the guy changed his mind. I had everything set up to go get the boat as long as it passed oh well I will find another.

Hey Loto,
very easy.... you had a binding contract (I assume) and they breached. You sue them and demand specific performance of the original contract. That would require them to get that boat back from the other purchaser and give it to you ( if you can prove it is one of a kind), or at a minimum force them to pay you for the damages you incurred as a result of the breach. You guys need to start using lawyers to break these guys balls, thats bull****. (legalese) Was the dealer in Florida??

I know what your talking about. "Most" of the brokers I've talked to in my boat quest avoid an honest answer like the plague. Instead of "let me check and I'll get back to you" why can't they just say "I'm not interested". I'm tired of checking back (since they said to) and then getting dumped on with why am I bothering them with my "old junk boat". It makes looking for a new boat such a pain that I'm about ready to just call the whole thing off.

Not true Cash, alot of time the dealers basic contract contains an attorney's fee provision. They never assume that it will be used against them. What do you think would have happened if Loto just walked from the deal?? They would have at least kept the money, but may very well have sued also. I think that alot of people have a pessimistic attitude about using attornies, but the people out there getting away with this bull**** always use attorneys. I guess it just depends on whether you want to be a victim, or get out there and get your pound of flesh. God knows that here are enough of us on this board that offer assistance.....

Ernie at Fort Apache Marina (didn't realize it is still there) is a real piece of work. Do a search on this and I am sure you will find some interesting information.
