Amen! At the very least, there needs to be an understanding that the down payment is non-refundable. I sold cars for a couple of years (I repented) and that was standard whenever someone wanted to put $100 on a $15,000 car to "hold" it for a week.

It turned away a lot of pretenders and made some others firm up and finish the deal.
