[QUOTE="pholmann, post: 604286, member: 5330"] He gambled......he lost. Game over. His problem. I had an ordeal very similar once. I had a slide in truck camper. Hated it. It sucked to load and unload. Put it on Craigslist. A fella came and looked it over for about 2 hours. It had some water damage. I pointed it out. He "rebuilds" campers as a hobby. He pointed out damage that I didn't know about. We haggled back and forth and came up with an agreed upon price. He loaded it, handed cash and left. A few days later he contacted me and said when he was unloading it, it apparently snagged something in the bed and he drug the damn legs off and it hit the ground. Well hunpty dumpy busted all to hell. He said it had extensive water damage and he "thinks" I knew about it. He said if I didn't give some financial assistance to repair it or buy it back he would have to do what his attorney suggested. He never said what that was, but my guess is since Tennessee is a buyer beware state his attorney told him he was ****ed. I refused to help. I mean **** he showed me damage I didn't know about. I hated he ****ed it up but I loaded and unloaded it a dozen times or more without incident. You cannot worry about this. It's not on you. You presented the truck as it was, he took a guess about what was wrong and gambled. It's out of your hands. Apologize, tell him you cannot help him and block the number. It definitely makes you feel as if you did something wrong simply because of empathy but you didn't. Move on and don't sweat it. [/QUOTE]
