Report poor conduct from a buyer

Asked by Guru9LKTFP Sep 09, 2021 at 09:21 PM about the 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL 550

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

Some buyer named "Merick" made an offer on a vehicle I've listed, and I
accepted contingent on his inspection and test driving the vehicle.  Then he
just disappeared, ghosting me as if this were a dating site.  No respnse in
over 28 hours now, though I've courteously messaged him twice after
accepting his "offer."

This kind of slimy conduct should not be permissible.  It destroys the
credibility of CarGurus to support this kind of nonsense.  Buyers should be
able to report sellers for cleazy conduct and vice versa.

I'll upload copies fo the exchange with this buyer if you need.

Thanks,

Some people are just jerks. This type of thing has been going on forever. Comes with the territory of selling anything! In 1986 I was selling my 78 Eldorado. Some guy from the next town over called to come look at the car and test drive it. I'm still waiting! Maybe he got lost, lol. Don't get upset, just forget about it and wait for a legitimate buyer. They'll come along! Hope that helps! Jim
