Your story has somewhat changed or was not provided in complete form. You mention that you received 5K back. I went to look back and did not see that portion of your story. I've sat in Peter's office many a time when people ask him questions, hard questions, and he is to the point. He does not play games. The quotes you attriibute to him don't add up to the personality I know.
By posting here the first issue that you will have to get through now is that there is more to the story than you first wrote to start the thread. Not saying that was intential, but it people are sharp in this place and will pick up in descrepencies faster then fly's on ****e.
Lastly - not many businesses openly negotiate with customers on the web. It is not in their or their customers best interest.
I wish you luck with getting back what you believe to be yours. However, you should understand that this is not like buying a Toyota and getting refunds back. If ERA started on a car they put time, labor and materials into your purchase they would be out funds. If you backed out after that process started then why would they owe you anything. Is this what has happened? Nobody knows but you.

After reviewing the thread, it is accurate to say that I failed to state that I had received 50% of a $10K deposit...my mistake and it was not my intention to mislead anyone. There are people out there that have that info in a PM reply but that is not an excuse for leaving it out here.
The rest is accurate. No switching. When I was asked for money I sent it. Games or otherwise, the run-around I've experienced remains unchanged.
Please understand that I'm not asking anyone from ERA to debate me here...only to pay attention to this and follow through on the deal agreed to.
I'll happily post if I ever get the money back. I'll also chronicle my ordeal if I'm forced to get an attorney in CT.
Thank you for your concern and well-wishes. I appreciate it sincerely.
