Perhaps you could strike a deal whereby you give the guy 500.00 now, to hold the car for you for a month or so, and then give him the balance at that time, if your $$$ position permits it.

I've done it a couple of times before with good results.

My .02 cents

Have a great holiday.
I would consider that, but my finances are iffy at best and committing to anything is risky. I don't like to commit if I can't fulfill. During the summer, I can teach classes and set up one on one instruction, during the winter, I'm screwed. Also, this year hit hard with more than half the teaching staff deployed, couldn't run enough classes to make squat.

Maybe I'll propose something like that to the guy, go sell some gold, bodily fluids, etc. to come up with it if I have to.
