I do not give anyone a deposit for any reason, refundable or not. If they cannot wait until I am ready or they will not order without a deposit, I move on. All a non-refundable deposit tells me is the company does not have sufficient working capital or they have problems with customers cancelling a sale, which usually means the customer was not happy.
I agree with you. If i buy a car from a lot, or as i did my MH, there was NO deposit. If i need time to think over the deal and you sell it, there are others. Also i would never pay for prep. It's suppose to be clean and everything working when i pick it up, just as any car dealer would deliver a car.. from the Benz S class to the cheapest Kia.
