Business ProfileforCapital City Auto Sales

On 7/30/24 my husband and I test drove a vehicle. I was still undecided on if this was the one I wanted and the sales associate, ******, told us another couple was interested and would be back in the morning to buy it if it hadnt sold. He told us if we put a deposit down they would hold the vehicle while they ran our credit and see if we could qualify. He said if we changed our minds, we couldnt get financing, or if things werent going to work out because it wasnt going to fit our needs they would completely refund our money no problems. He asked my husband to sign a deposit slip and we paid him $200. We did not get a copy of the paperwork. The next day we finally got a call late afternoon to let us know there was good and bad news. We were approved for financing but with a large $4000 down payment. We expressed we couldnt afford it and requested our deposit. He said they could hold it and keep looking for something that would fit our budget better, which we accepted. The next day we called to ask for our deposit to move on to other things and were told no, that we signed the paper so thats on us I reiterated what was told to us and the ****** blamed it on me saying I was remembering the situation wrong. I told him it was unethical and I would write a bad review which he then threatened me saying they would charge me with slander even though its my opinion and right to voice my thoughts. He continued to argue with me on the phone. We have not heard anything since. My husband tried reaching out to see if they changed their minds and never got a response.
