Why someone would go through all the effort to buy something, then never pick it up, nor ask fortheir money back. This person definitely has a few screws loose, or is so filthy rich he can piss money away like its water and not bat an eyelash. In any event the guy is an imbicile, and Mark you did the right thing. I don't know how you kep your cool so long. I would have done something really rash, and stupid like parking the car on theside of the road and let the police mark it as abandoned.
One thing though, next time get somethin gin writing from the buyer stating that "vehicle must be picked up with X amount of time, or deal is canceled and any monies forfeited". This way if he balks yo uhave a legal document you can use against him. I did that when I sold my trailer to a guy. I had him sign a paper I drew up, that basically said "he had one week to pay in full and remove trailer from premises or I keep the deposit and sell to someone else". That trailer was gone two days later.
