I don't think you really need get into a law suit to get back your deposit.

Most of the cases, the dealers give back the deposit no matter how the agreement was drafted, assuming that you haven't driven the car home.

1. Talk to theri senior managers (or the president) about the issue. Normally the sales guy doesn't want to give back your deposit, because that will affect his commission. If you don't feel comfortable talking to them, you can write to them. Politely and assertively.

2. Or get an experienced person to deal with them.

3. The last option is to get a lawyer to draft a letter for you. Businesses are relunctant to get involved in a law suit for only a couple of hundred dollar's profit. It is much more expensive for them to deal with a potential law suit.

Stay cool and don't feel frustrated. You have a very good chance to get your money back.

I don't have specific experience in small claims and I don't know the details of your case. Just a few suggestions. -dropoutinmiami(东北的饺子); 2002-1-24 {646} (#345740@0)
1. read your purchase agreement first and see any clause about the deposit. So you know where you are standing now.

2. Call a couple of lawyers and tell them about your case and try to get a sense of where you are standing.

3. Some lawyers offer half an hour free consultation to attract new clients. If it is a simple case, they may give you answers right away.

4. Or you can buy 15-30 minutes of their time.

5. Or contact consumer protection organization.

6. Or wait for the other people here who have similar experience.

7. Or look into small claim court and get the procedures. It should be straight forward.

Good luck!

我上当过，和车商打交道一定要小心。他们有时就象流氓一样，先是好话说尽，钱到手后，哪怕是百来块，就另一付嘴脸。据说他们还不怕打官司。 -jefferyu(老歌游); 2002-1-24 (#345821@0)
