What is the name of your state? California

Purchased a laptop for $1400 with the stipulation that if he could produce a purchase receipt (which he did thru email), That I would give him the remaining $100.
When meeting to pick-up the money. He stood me up. I drove for 20 minutes and waited for over an hour. He then called and said to send him the money. He now wants to cancel the sale, give back the money and call it even, because he feels he sold it for too little.
I don't think he could sue me, since he only knows my first name, and tel# (no listed address in Ph book). Nothing else.
I don't want to cancel the sale. I want to keep the laptop.

Q#1 How do I enforce the sale?

Q#2 If I must give back the computer, am I entitled to compensation for my time and expenses ( gas)

Thank you for your advice.

Tell him tough cookies.

You don't have to give the computer back and the answer to the second part is no.
