Getting sued tonight :)

You may or may not remember my dream car, the Fiero. I bought it last spring for a few hundred dollars. I had it towed to the mechanic I usually use to get the rear frame replaced...about $150. They then called and said something else was wrong and the total would be $600. I said ok and then they called again and said ti would be $1200. That made me think if I really wanted to put $1200 into a car I paid only a couple hundred for. So after the entire summer, they finally called and told me it was done and the total was $1900. At least in NYS, a mechanic has to update the customer whenever the price goes up. Up to $1200, they did that.

I went over to the mechanic and told them I was not going to pay the $1900. They said, what do you want to do? I said the car was theirs. The manager said, "ok, what do we do for a title?". I just happened to have it with me so I gave it to him.

Done and done, right? Consideration offered and accepted. And yet, 2 weeks later the owner called and said that the manager had no right to do that. He also told me that the people that wanted to buy the car couldn't come up with the money. I asked what that had to do with me. He just said he had to get his money.

And now tonight I go to small claims court for this matter.

I am taking wagers...will I win?
