This depends on several things:

  • Local law
  • What the sales agreement reads and was one signed
  • And finally what goods we are talking about.

In our area a down payment is the beginning of a financing agreement. The "financing agreement" or "Loan" is a legal contract to make payment on a set cycle.

Refusal to pay will be a default and result in bad consequences to your credit rating.

A Deposit:Is a different mater, in my area it is a promise to purchase and the dealer or seller agrees to hold the item for a set period for this sum and the sum is applied to the purchase when the deal is finalised.

The money is forfeited if you do not go through with the deal.
