    As some of you may have surmised, I have been shopping for a second vehicle to replace the Jeep with.

    Having found a candidate in Ohio, I have reached out to the dealer expressing my interest. This is not a special car, nor is it in special condition. He's been sitting on this vehicle for 10 weeks. Ten. That's almost a year in used car lot time.

    I have expressed my desire for a few supplemental photos, video / audio of the engine and exhaust while running as well as some detailed photos of the minor rust he mentioned during our only call. I have invited him to use his phone to send me the requested pics / vids to my phone just in case the email request was too much.

    Fairly easy right? Wrong.

    I even told him on the phone that I would make a deposit payment, to which he replied that I could make it with a debit card. I agreed.

    I have received no photos, no video, no email, no call, no reply to texts, no link to pay a deposit. This guy must be the least involved car salesman in the business.

    I'd be there to pick up the car in a week or two... if he'd just sell it to me.
