I can offer 4 reasons:
1. That potential buyer was first in line to contact the seller and discuss purchase of vehicle.
2. The fact that the potential buyer had obligations which precluded him from meeting the seller right away is an all too familiar scenario many of us - as well as I'm guessing the seller - has faced. Thus he could relate and wanted to pass along the same consideration he had received in previous situations when he was the potential buyer and couldn't meet the seller right away.
3. The seller was not in a huge hurry to sell his vehicle.
4. The vehicle is considered to be a highly sought after car and thus the seller isn't concerned he may not get a sale by delaying other potential buyers.
This isn't a one way street in terms of what makes sense. There are many ways to look at it.
The seller keeps his word and still makes the sale. Win-win....
