I'm getting screwed by SS Ford... but, its partially my fault as I don't have it in writing:

Long story short... traded in a 2009 Porsche Carerra in on a 2011 Raptor on 4-16-11 (I needed a Baja-Capable 4WD vehicle to access some recently purchased rural property), they told me I could keep my after-market GT3 wing to sell privately (this would take a little sting out of the Raptor MSRP).... even took my stock OEM Porsche rear decklid to her father's shop on 4-18-11 to have the swap done.
BUT! I didn't get it in writing that I'd get the wing back... my mistake! The trade in was so smooth as was the saleslady... I thought all was cool. Boy was I wrong! She calls today 4-22-11 (while I'm waiting to hear the swap was done) only to tell me that they sold the Porsche but forgot to take the rear wing off....
I already had a buyer for the wing for $1500... I had the wing priced cheap for a quick sale, and it did too! I even have several PM's from others wanting the wing if the first guy backs out.
Its not over yet... I emailed the owner, but because its not in writing, I think I'm pretty much screwed I know, its MY fault for not getting it in writing... I feel guilty about this... really? I don't buy cars every day, THEY sell cars every day... THEY should have put it in writing for me... This is THEIR business. My fault... lesson learned.
Sandy Springs Ford... be careful if you deal with them... IF things turn out differently and they make good on my $1500, I'll be the first to post back here with a favorable recommendation... or even delete all my complaining.
