CBS used to televise the SEC games at 2:30 CST. They did for many many years. Now CBS televises the Big 10. Hopeless this cleared up your confusion

Been on (2). Royal Caribbean & Princess both in the Caribbean out of San Juan. Both were a blast. No way I'm setting foot on a Carnival out of N.O.

Yes that is exactly what we tell any customer that is interested in a vehicle.

Sorry you had such a bad experience and it really doesn’t have to be that way.
First off, I’m a Sales Manager at a dealership and we have established a policy that I think is fair to both of us. I don’t know all of the details of your transaction with them, so I can’t comment on what they said or did or didn’t do. Here is how we conduct business when a person is interested in a vehicle but is not there in person to complete an agreement.
1. We will agree on figures that are acceptable.
2. We do not take deposits on vehicles to “hold vehicles”. There is no such thing as holding vehicles - if you or the dealership have not signed an agreement - there is no contract between either party. ( we have taken deposits before on people that wanted a vehicle - never went further in the buying process and returned their $ to them ). As a result - no deposits.
3. If we agree on figures and you tell me you and your wife will be in on Wednesday to sign and what time - I will pull the keys Tuesday evening and it will not be available to sell to anyone else up to your agreed appt time. Anytime before your appt ( before the key is pulled or after your appt expires) it’s for sale. If I sell it before your appt - I’m calling you to let you know we need to find a different vehicle.
Finally, remember this - time kills all deals ( for customers as well as dealerships)
