‘Dude, I’m already here, are you kidding me': Customer wastes 3 hours of time and gas after arriving at car seller's home only to be told van is already sold

One seller wasted 3 hours of his customer's time and gas money… Why? Who knows, people are awful, especially those selling on Marketplace.

The customer, who we'll call OP, took to Reddit to complain about his terrible experience. Basically, OP had seen a small van for a reasonable price online, and wanted to buy it in order to convert it. They reached out to the seller, telling them they were interested in buying the van and would like to come see it. All seemed to be going well, as the seller was responsive and told OP that he was welcome to come check it out. They exchanged information and decided on a time and a place for the following day. OP was excited about the van, and was really looking forward to taking a look at it in real life and possibly, buying it.

Unfortunately, that's not how it all played out. Scroll down for the full story, and then check out these entertaining 'rich people' stories.
