Car dealer backs out of deal

If it was the other way round and the buyer realised they were paying far too much and said they had made a mistake, you can bet the dealer would not return the deposit. I can see where the OP is coming from.

If they had overcharged you would you still say you had a verbal contract  so will not ask for the reduced price?

It depends what way it was overcharged. If I had agreed on a lower figure and they are trying to charge me more then yes I would ask for the money back. I have the dealer at least 2 opportunities to check things over and they said it was all correct.

So if the error was in their favour, you'd insist it be unwound.
But because the error is, the deal must be completed...

Right?

Umm, it doesn't work like that.

No, the dealer nearly always wins if they are not challenged as the OP is trying to get help with.
