Replying to: emjay1 (Jul 30, 2009 7:15 am) Kind of a blanket statement, esp since most people get screwed locally anyway. If you are buying a car from a reputable dealer out of state you should be fine.

#221 of 225 Auction question by jayrider Sep 20, 2009 (12:57 pm)
Replying to: volvomax (Jul 30, 2009 10:40 am) If I put a car up for sale on ebay -- it sells-- I get the paypal deposit - then what is the best way to get the rest of the money? Has anyone sold a car that way? -- dealers or fsbo's please comment. Replies to this message: mako1a (Sep 20, 2009 4:22 pm) qbrozen (Sep 20, 2009 4:58 pm) volvomax (Sep 24, 2009 8:13 am)

Replying to: jayrider (Sep 20, 2009 12:57 pm) When I sold my Corvette cash was not an option. I parked the car in the buyers driveway with his cash deposit in my pocket and off we went to his bank since he was financing. They we're very good about putting a lien on the title and handling all paperwork plus giving me a cashiers check. Afterward we went back to his place and removed my plates. He completed the transfer at DMV with bank papers in hand.

Replying to: jayrider (Sep 20, 2009 12:57 pm) Well, the BEST way is cash. Other ways would be personal check or cashier's check. In either of those cases, however, I would not sign anything over until it cleared.   I've sold 3 vehicles through Ebay. All were cash deals. In 1 instance, buyer brought cash to my house and took vehicle away on trailer. Another time, I followed buyer to the bank and he withdrew cash and handed over. And in the other instance, I met the buyer at the train station with the car because he came from out of state. He brought cash, we did the deal in the parking lot, and he drove home from there.

Replying to: jayrider (Sep 20, 2009 12:57 pm) Well, you get the rest of the money thru Paypal. Otherwise a cashiers check is fine.
