You put MONEY ON IT and they sold it out from under you???
Whaaa??????
I'm a shop owner, and I would NEVER do that! If you put money on a bike it's called a layaway, and therefore should be moved off the floor.
I do layaway here. I require 20% down and then give 60 days to pay. Very straight forward.
I'm so sorry that happened to you. But as for that shop, I wouldn't be dealing with them anymore.
Not cool!
