I'm working out all the details of pre-buy etc... now. He want's a 2K deposit and I don't have any issues forking that over, just wondering how I should protect myself should I/an A&P show up for a pre-buy and it's a corroded mess with the wings detached or something. Assuming nothing major wrong I intend to purchase the plane, I just want to protect myself, because... I haven't even seen the plane, about to give him a call and iron out all the details but need to know what I should ask for/demand before I hand over the deposit?
Can I balk because there's a stain on the carpet and expect my deposit back? My current plane I purchased with cash in hand in person without a deposit, with this one, I'm going to have to send an A&P for the pre-buy THEN go down there. If I go through the eBay system a la paypal, will that offer some level of protection? Losing 2K wouldn't be the end of the world but it wouldn't be fun.
