Hello all
I need to rant.  I have been made a sucker. I sold my nice mahogany Victrola 
XVI in order to buy a Victrola XIV in beautifully grained American Walnut on 
Craigslist. The deal was made a few days ago (all documented in email) and I 
was set to drive down to San Clemente tomorrow to get it. Tonight the seller 
writes me and says "Hi John, I'm sorry to say this but I have another offer on 
the 
Victrola for $600. The collector thAt looked at it said it has an 
uncommon walnut finish. Anyway, I am giving him until next weekend to 
pay/pickup. I'm sorry for any inconvience this may have cause you. Good 
luck to you."
So I sold my nice XVI for nothing. And the seller reneged on a done deal 
because she got a better offer (by the way, her ad asked for $450 and I agreed 
to pay that). The other collector is going to find out that it isn't 
Circassian, and I hope he renegs on her. I reported her to Craigslist for gogn 
back on the deal. Obviously I am very unhappy about this. I just wanted to vent.
Thank you for listening! Now I have to find a nice victrola to replace my XVI...
