buyers/sellers that DEFAULT on contract


Anybody ever had a buyer or seller DEFAULT on a deal/contract? What did you do? I recently had a DEAL/Contract (I have ALL the threads) and the seller defaulted. I plan on filing a small claims lawsuit, (pro se), against him. Any other suggestions to remedy these situations, when they happen? (I'm sure there are some lawyers among us audiophiles!) Share your similar experiences?
Happy Listening!

Depends what you mean by "default." If you shipped the equipment and no check, or didn't clear, and he/she kept the merchadise, then I'd go to court as well. If they just agreed to a deal and backed out with out any financial consequence on your end, other than having to find another deal, then I don't think it worth the time to fool with. Just part of doing business on the net. Personally, until money or merchandise is shipped, it's not a deal IMO. However, I do feel that each party should notify the other of their intentions if they are backing out of a "verbal" deal. That is part of being honest.

I know I'll find some who will disagree, but have you ever been to a store and said, hey I like that, I'll be back and then never came back? Kind of the same in my book.

But once money or equipment is sent...that's binding.
