This is not to say I had a bad experience from the dealer I bought from, in fact they were GREAT (and sold me the car at a better discount then anything Kerbeck was offering). It is just that I might have a enjoyed bit of instant gratification..

Hey, I have a question. After months of searching I finally ordered a 2014 Stingray just last week from a dealer in Florida. During my search, I never saw more then a hundred or so C7s listed on the Kerbeck website. If it is true they have over a thousand in stock, maybe they should have listed them all. I MIGHT have found the exact car I was looking for and would not have had to factory order....

They have about 70 in stock and another 30 inbound as of 02/22/14, the number will always be changing. Of note, they have no Z51 coupes either in stock on in transit. Looks like what they have in stock were allocation orders they placed while Z51's were constrained.
Here's what they have IN STOCK: http://www.kerbeck.com/kerbeck/kerbe...ette_inventory

I am surprised no one has mentioned THIS:
If you (and you should have) used a credit card for the deposit, simply do a charge back...state a legitimate reason if necessary...case closed...no one loses....would be ironic if you used the GM card!

Let's get both sides of the story, for one. For another, if the price is right you are all running to Kerbeck.
I live in NJ and used to sell new cars. At that time, the law was that when the car was sold to another party, the deposit had to be returned. There was no such thing as a nonrefundablecdeposit, even if you agreed to that they could not make it stick.

Curious to see the two opposing sides. 1) Give it back, it's ain't fair, he changed his mind, so give it back! 2nd side) A deal is a deal, he signed the contract. Sorry Pal, you have to sell what you contractually ordered and bought. What makes it curious to me is I wonder what the demographics would be if surveyed. I'm 50, work in the oil and gas industry, raised by blue collar hill billy fellow that his word didn't didn't need a signature. Guess that's where I'm at on this discussion. My word is final and its not the dealership's fault that circumstances changed. His word was he was going to buy and signed a contract. Sounds like OP is taking his word seriously, others commenting seem they expect the dealership to not hold people accountable to their deal. Just wondering, thats all.

Probably the same Dave I spoke with when I went there to look. That was the second time I went there to buy a Corvette and will be the last. I didn't buy one the first time either. They are good to go see your selections then go somewhere else an order one. I purchased one from a smaller dealer and I don't mind the wait I live in New Jersey and it just keeps snowing. The price was much better elsewhere!!!!!

Kerbeck doesn't credit cards for deposits,, I know, I ordered my z51 from them. At an excellent price if I may add, but still surprised they did this.

To all the "boycotters" good luck in your search, with the new Chevy $2000 price increase, Kerbeck is still honoring their old prices and discounting Vettes, where your "mom & pop" dealers that get 1 loaded 3 LT sell it for $80K. They'll continue to be the #1 Vette dealership in the world for a reason, good prices & custom service.
To everyone that's appalled about a dealership not returning a deposit, REMEMBER, these cars were custom ordered and it CLEARLY states on the contract that deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE if YOU cancel a car that YOU ORDERED. We're not talking about a Malibu sitting on the lot, and the customer put $500 down and then decided on a Corolla. It's a car BUILT to the OWNER's SPECS. READ THE PRINT NEXT TIME YOU SIGN SOMETHING & then change YOUR mind!!!

Lack of response where, on a forum message board or have you called them to place an order and no ones gotten back to you? Because I'm sure the latter is not true, I live in NJ, grew up on the same island, know the Kerbeck brothers (there is no Dave Kerbeck BTW), and have purchased about a half dozen cars from them in 30 years. When I inquired online at night about placing my order, I received an email the following morning from their concierge and then about an hour or so later a phone call from one of their Vette managers. The process went seamlessly smooth, and my car arrived when we expected it to.

The lack of response is what I am referring to. They are ALL OVER this board and a few minutes could have been taken here and probably should have to ease the minds of other perspective customers. Regardless, they didn't find it necessary which is their prerogative. So is where we purchase our C7s.. Nothing else to dispute at the point.

The OP gave BOTH sides of the story. He never put down Kerbeck. He just stated the facts. He gave a deposit, decided he didn't want it, and is trying to find a buyer because he was told by Kerbeck that it is too late to get it back otherwise.
He didn't accuse the dealer in this thread. He's just looking for a buyer. That's the story. That's how it works with a deposit.

Back in 2002 I placed an order with Kerbeck for a special order Z06. Yellow with red interior. Gave them a $500 deposit, while car was in production I lost my job. I called them and explained the situation. Without hesitation they refunded my deposit on a "special" order car.
Kerbeck did not have to refund me my deposit. I have bought a car from them since and would again.
