Well, this was a new one for me. After a lengthy (and pleasant) conversation
with the owner last night, we agreed on a price and a time today I could
come pick the van up, and I was thanked for providing the van with a good
home. I was excited about a new Westy in the household, and looking forward
to getting it back on the road. However, this afternoon I was coolly
informed that another gentleman had paid for and hauled away the van this
morning. What a pisser. Was I so naiive to trust in a verbal agreement  with
the owner? I suppose it's entirely his prerogative to sell to someone else,
but in six used VW purchases over the years, I've never been snubbed like
this. Oh well, I guess I wasn't supposed to have it. It was really a nice
van... So now what should I do with all this cash I pulled out of the bank?
