Re: I need some advice on selling a vehicle online, and shipping it to a buyer please
But that leaves the other guy with the same dilema. You've got his money, he ain't got no truck.

That's great for the seller, but if I was the buyer, I don thin so.

In this case the "buyer" seems to have requested the transaction go in this order and he's pretty much declined the inspection etc. I believe that the "certified" that FU mentions is likely acceptable OR the "bank money order" - both have significant confirmations that can be invoked.

Re: I need some advice on selling a vehicle online, and shipping it to a buyer please
I decided it would be money transfer only if I ship.
I would take a cashiers check in person, but only after verifying it with the banks. I have taken "walk around" videos for these people ... so they can feel like they are getting to see the vehicles themselves. I also have taken specific pictures. Nobody has pulled the trigger yet , and I am going to keep the auctions "in person only" ... but entertain offers of shipping if people request it. They MUST agree the sales are AS-IS and that they declined seeing the vehicle in person themselves. My ads are EXTREMELY detailed , LOL. I try to be as honest as possible. I don't want to deal with ANY after-sale issues for them or myself. Thanks guys! ---

Re: I need some advice on selling a vehicle online, and shipping it to a buyer please
I was selling a Harley a few years back and it was suggested to me to have a third party handle the transaction. Kind of like an "Escrow". There are services out there that specialize in this.

When I sell a car personally I have the other party sign a bill of sale with VIN and price and detailing that once I receive the funds via wire I will send the title. When I buy a car personally I write up a detailed description of what he has told me about the car and the terms of the deal and have him sign it in advance of my sending a wire. Still some risk but I did it with the 95 last year and it worked out fine. Hope that helps. -- Bob

Re: I need some advice on selling a vehicle online, and shipping it to a buyer please
I was looking into the ESCROW thing, but I don't want to have to deal with getting the truck back after its been shipped and who knows how it was test drove or what was done to it until it gets shipped back. I don't want to deal with any of that ... seems like it could be a big mess. I would rather hold out for IN-PERSON in that situation.
BOB , that was PRICELESS information ... you may have saved me a lot of headache by sharing that. THANKS! ---
