What type of machine will hit the most ofter, 5, 10, 25, 1.00 etc.?

that's why you gave the deposit as an agreement to buy the car and part of that agreement was he would not sell to anyone else and stop looking for buyers so he has the right to keep it if you back out. If this is a dealer you are dealing with you may be able to talk your way into a refund since he wants to look good to the community but he doesn't have to be a nice guy! good luck.
