Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Background: was in a wreck and car was totaled. Husband and I are looking for a car equal to what we're getting back from insurance, but we took out an auto loan so we can get a replacement before our rental runs out. We'll pay it back when we have the payout. We found a car that met all our criteria, but it was two hours away. We called to set up an appointment for Saturday, but he said he expected the car to sell by then. So we made plans to go up yesterday after work. His website shows that he offers financing (important), so I called him back and told him we would be there by the time they close and that we already have financing through our bank so it would be a quick buy. He said okay.

So we drive two hours, look at the car, test drive, talk it over, and decide to buy it. I pull out the financing paperwork and he says he doesn't know how to do it. I told him it's straight forward and that I can email it to him. He said he doesn't work with banks. I pointed out that I told him on the phone that we financed through the bank, and he told me that he didn't hear that part and if he had, he would have told us not to come. So I asked why his website offers financing, and he said that he doesn't actually accept those applications. I asked if he would make an exception since we drove so far, and he said no because he didn't want to do the title work and wait for the money. He then made some snide comment about how it was obvious that we didn't have cash and it would go to someone else who does. So we left.

I can't decide if I want to leave a review for him. On one hand, the car was in good shape and at a very good price. On the other hand, I feel like his website is misleading and he didn't handle the situation well when there was a misunderstanding. He claims he didn't hear me say anything about financing, but I has no reason to believe he dealt in cash only (nothing on his website indicated that).  If I left a review, it would be more of an "FYI" type deal, but I honestly can't decide if that would be helpful/appropriate or if it just makes me a bitter asshole.
