Felton, Chief Judge,
concurring specially. I concur in the judgment for one reason only and that is that the plaintiff did not prove what was the difference between the value of the property and the amount of the balance of the purchase money owed by the plaintiff which was the amount the plaintiff was entitled to recover under Arsdale v. Joiner, 44 Ga. 173. While no ruling on the matter of estoppel is made by the majority opinion, I wish it clearly understood that in my opinion there can be no estoppel invoked against the plaintiff on the ground that she did anything to lead anybody to believe that the credit company had a right to sell the property as its own or as agent for the plaintiff. The credit company and the defendant without question converted the property, and nothing happened after the conversion to remove the consequence of the conversion. The Arsdale case, supra, involved a pledge but the principle is the same as here.
