In recent years, the domestic economy has taken off, people's income levels have also increased, and at the moment when the price of cars is constantly falling, there are more and more people buying cars. There are so many car brands on the market, you have to shop around to choose your most satisfactory model. When going to see the car, some car owners are worried that their favorite car will be bought by others, and they will pay a sum of money in advance to fix the car.
However, when writing the receipt, it should be written "deposit" or "deposit", which must be clearly distinguished. Although the two words are pronounced the same, they have completely different meanings, and a word difference may cause great losses to themselves.
When going to buy a car, if you are optimistic about the model and negotiate the price, and you are sure that you will not regret it in the future, you can write down the word "deposit" on the receipt when you pay the money. Paying the deposit means that the car has been determined, and if it is regretted later, the dealer will not refund the deposit.
But if you are wavering in your heart, you are interested in this car, but you are not sure. Afraid that after shopping around, you like other cars, then you must not write a "deposit", you can write a "deposit" on the receipt.
This "deposit" is the meaning of the reservation, indicating that they have not been fully determined, even if they do not perform the contract in the future, it will not constitute a breach of contract, and the consumer can ask the 4S store or dealer to return the money paid before.
If from a legal point of view, only the "deposit" belongs to the legal concept, and the "deposit" is just a customary term, which belongs to the oral agreement between the buyer and the seller, and has no legal effect. If you want to sign an important contract and determine the intention to buy and sell, you can only use a deposit.
The deposit refers to the legal guarantee method that one party agrees that one party will pay to the other party. The main purpose of the deposit is to urge the debtor to perform the debt and to ensure that the creditor's claim is reflected. After paying the deposit, but not fulfilling the debt, it is equivalent to giving up this interest, and there is no reason to require the creditor to return the funds.
Many people do not understand the concept of these two words, thinking that the pronunciation represents the same legal meaning, and writing a wrong word when handing over money, resulting in a loss of tens of thousands of dollars.
The owner, Xiao Zhang, wanted to buy a car, but he was a little hesitant in his heart, not knowing what kind of car he wanted to buy. When I went to the 4S shop to see the car, I felt a little moved after listening to the sales introduction, so I paid a deposit of 20,000 yuan. But in fact, he only has the intention to buy a car, and he is not completely sure of his intentions. However, when filling out the receipt, Xiao Zhang wrote "deposit" on the receipt.
Later, Xiao Zhang repented and did not want to buy this car, he wanted to get the money he paid back, but the sales told him that the money could not be refunded. The seller took out the receipt for the day and indicated that Xiao Zhang had paid a deposit, and now that Xiao Zhang refused to perform his obligations, he had no right to demand the return of the money.
Deposits and deposits are only a word difference, but the meaning is very different. Xiao Zhang was because he did not figure out what the meaning of these two words was, and he wrote the wrong word before buying a car, which led to a loss of 20,000 yuan. If you also have the intention to buy a car, you must think clearly before buying a car, whether you have to pay a deposit or a deposit, a word is wrong, it may lead to a full loss, and you can't find a reason to defend your rights.
