Was their deposit refundable?
It's been awhile since I talked to Pam at Robideaux, but I believe this is their refund policy with your deposit:
o They require $1,000 to secure your order and hold your place in line.
o You can easily cancel and get your money back as long as you do it before the order is firmed up and and the vehicle is locked in for production.
o If you want to cancel after that lock-in period, you have to wait until the vehicle is produced, shipped to their dealership and then sold to another customer.
o Once they sell your vehicle, you get your $1,000 back.
Overall, seems like a fair policy. Someone can correct me if I stated something incorrectly.
