Hi Y'all, I need guidance on what to do.
I'm going to try to explain this simply and as short as possible.
My husband and I bought a boat hull, nothing fancy just a project for us to work on and hopefully get in the water by next year. We live in Texas and drove about two hours to Oklahoma to pick it up, with the trailer it was just $250. We had issues with meeting the man up and all kinds of stuff but when we get there he tells us there's no title, he has another boat with a motor for the same price with a title if we want it but it's not that hard to get a title.
While we had all the issues and while we planned the trip to go get the boat my husband didn't tell his parents because they are extremely controlling. When we hadn't had said boat a full day and my husband decided to go ahead and tell them about our it because it's all said and done. My FIL flips out saying we made a huge mistake that we can't get a title and wasted our time and money.
Right now, we're lucky enough that $250 isn't that big of a deal to us so we have the mindset of if it's going to work out it will but with less than two hours of googling and looking at government websites, we found out that we can, in fact, get a title but it's going to take more work than we had originally thought (I should note the man we bought the boat from was right in Oklahoma it is very easy to get a title). At the same time, my MIL is calling and texting my husband and telling him it's all going to be ok it's just a mistake and will not let it go, which is making him mad.
That was all last night then today I got a phone call and my in-laws contacted the guy we got the boat from when we didn't tell them anything about him and told him that he did us wrong and to give us a refund. We are in good standings with him and had no issue with him (hopefully still are we wanted to go back and get a motor from him).
At first, it was just water off a duck's back to me but now I'm upset and I know my husband is going to be beyond mad.
I have no clue how to handle this, I could use prayers and any advice you could give.
