This is a peeve of mine (and how often do we get to use the word peeve?)
You went through all the brain damage - You made a commitment - then somebody showed up and he sold them.
They're his to sell but it's not as if you were still hemming and hawing.
In some cases I've offered to send a deposit via PayPal...but that doesn't always work.
In one case I had left home and driven 20 miles toward the scheduled pickup when I got a call saying that "This guy who looked at it last week came over and took it".
Well - as we say around here - "Forget it Jake - it's Craigslist"
