    what was the credit card authorization for .

    was there ever any actual deposit or any money that changed hands?
    The credit card authorization was for a $1000 deposit for the vehicle.

    The salesman never processed the deposit, even though I gave him the authorization to do so. He called about 6 days after I gave him the authorization and say that it was sold to someone else.

    EDIT: Changed in my original post. Thanks for the clarifying question.

    When you called the dealership, they confirmed that they received your authorization for the deposit? How did they explain selling the car to somebody else?

    Thankfully, much of the conversation was done via e-mail. This is what I have:

    Congratulations. It will be my pleasure to be the one to sell you your first car on credit and your first Jaguar.

    Attached is a credit card authorization, please fill out completely, sign, scan and email back to me. Please also enclose a copy of your DL and your ID badge from work.

    Again Congratulation,
    THANK YOU. I did receive your CC information. I just have one question. Is it a Visa, MC or AMEX? I also need your Drivers License and your work ID scanned and emailed to me as well. Its a stipulation of the lender. Please, also let me know when to expect you. I will pick you up at the airport and drive you personally to the dealership for delivery.
    This is my response:

    The card is a VISA. Attached is a picture of my driver's license and
    work ID. I bought a plane ticket for Wednesday January 06, 2010. 1:20
    pm arrival. DTW (Detroit) to DFW (Dallas).
