I am have a person who said they were going to buy a car from me on craigslist. Then 3 days later he backed out. He is now threatening to sue me since I wont give him his $500 deposit back. His only argument is that I never explicitly said it was nonrefundable. Does he have any legal ground? Any recommendations?

If you didn't say explicitly non-refundable, then it is expected to be refundable. Why are you being obnoxious over a deposit when you still have the car to sell?
