If you had a deal at 2750 regular paypal, why did you then ask him to pay 2750 FF? It sounds to me like you went back for more after the deal was done, knowing he wanted to use regular PP.

Did I miss something or did he say he was offered the extra money? I would be careful about badgering the witness. ........(I just made that up but I think I heard it on a TV show.)

He had a done deal at 2750 PP, and then sought to change it back to FF already knowing Derek did not want to pay by FF because he already had agreed to pay more to use regular PP, and in the context of mentioning to Derek he had received higher offers. Where I come from, you honor the terms of your deal, period.

I agree deals should be honored.

Ok, (continuing with the court theme), we should go back and read the transcript.

Per cobblove:

Original deal agreed on was $2675.

Seller wanted payment via FF and buyer agreed to pay $2750 (an extra $75) to cover paypal fees.

Four days later seller says he has other offers including $2750 FF and asks buyer if he can refund the $2750 regular payment and have buyer resend as $2750 FF.

Buyer agrees to pay an additional $100 ($2850) to cover paypal fees (a second time) and also cover overnight delivery which buyer says seller already agreed to pay the first time at $2750.

The seller doesn't dispute any of this, except to say the additional $100 (from $2750 to $2850) was a voluntary payment from the buyer, omitting the fact that it was the second time the buyer paid extra to cover paypal fees.


These are the facts as I understand them your honor from reading the posts above.
