The answer depends on what your purchase agreement would say. You can draft the agreement to include that there is a deposit that is needed prior to the sale and if they backs out they would loose the deposit or even pay for your legal fees. Generally, a buyer may back out of an agreement but it then come at a cost. As a contracts attorney that specializes in the sale of ecommerce businesses and assets, I would be happy to assist you.
