Actually we had a signed Bill of Sale with the deposit noted as non-refundable...
To be fair, if you didn't explicitly state that the deposit was non-refundable, he wasn't completely out of line for requesting it back from you.

Had an issue with a sale last spring. Had a buyer come right away to buy our tough to locate Tacoma 4 cylinder 4WD. He came from 60 miles away and had no backup driver to take his car home. He gave a $100 deposit to hold the car until the next day.
The next day he changed his mind and demanded his deposit back. He did not understand the concept of how deposits work. He came back to our house and insisted with an assist from his friend that we return his money.
