Alright guys, Here is the story.

I have been searching for an original xbox in working condition for a little while and I found one on Craigslist in my area. He listed it for $100 or best offer for the complete system, hd cables, 3 extra controllers (one oem and 2 wireless), and 9 games. I emailed him with an offer of $70 and he accepted. We agreed to meet up the next day to complete the transaction. I called him and he said that he could meet me in a half hour at the location I was at. I told him that I would meet him at his house when I got off of work. He agreed and stated that he would be home all day so that it was not a problem.

So it came time and I called him, no answer. I tried 3 times over the next house, no answer. I went home and emailed him, no response. I then called him again, no answer.

I waited a few hours and called him and he answered.

He told me that he had to go to a wake and was unable to contact me. I called him the first time at 5pm and here it was 9pm that he finally answered. I asked him about the xbox and said that he received a call after I called him to meet up and was offered the full amount $100 for the xbox. I told him that I would be in contact and hung up.

Under consumer law, we entered into a binding contract that he breached. Legally I am entitled to damages.

My question is should I or shouldn't I take him to small claims court.
