Won ebay auction at 55.1K for GT-R, Honda of San Marcos refusing to honor

Ebay doe nothing in terms of actually forcing sellers to honor auction prices. All they do is ban them from selling any other items, but all the seller has to do is setup a new account. I've dealt with sellers refusing to sell items for the final auction price and it's always ended with the seller walking away with barely a slap on the wrist.

This is good. The more car sites that know about this the more attention it will attract. This happened to another dealership and when word got out they were bombarded with phone calls and emails all across the country from car enthusiasts which finally made them relent to the pressure.

I am not going to call Ian back. I posted on the BBB
"I have not personally slander anyone or this dealership. If you have proof that I personally slander this business please let me see it. As far as the car go I still want my GT-R. I am not going to call and talk to Ian. He is a RUDE manager. I would like to speak to the owner as speaking to Ian will get no where."

It looks like they've taken down their Facebook page. And now that it's on Jalopnik all heck will break loose. They will be called and emailed relentlessly. I already noticed they are getting negative reviews on a number of dealership rating websites regarding this matter.
