Title: Re: [Chevelle-list] domed hood on Malibu?/instant purchases

I might be a bit late responding, but this is true.  Anyone who wishes to show up and buy a car and drive it away should be prepared to do a wire transfer from his bank account directly to yours.  He can tell his bank ahead of time what he is up to and so can the seller, and then the buyer can show up and drive the car make the deal and go with the seller to his bank an initiate the wire transfer.  These things take time.  It can be done within a few hours or a day, but having to stay overnight is not unusual and both sides should be prepared for that possibility.  Showing up with the cash means the guy is serious but if he’s going to present a negotiable instrument the car and title should not be delivered until your bank has confirmed clearance.
Been there, done that.  Ed

  He would have showed up with a bank draft or cashiers check.   Your bank would have examined it, and cashed it.   The amount of the check may even have been for more than the agreed price.   He'd drive off with your car and the extra cash (gas money?) .  About a week or 10 days later the bank would call you & say by the way "that check was no good, you owe us $$$$"    Its happened.

A friend was just telling me about a week ago that Yahoo auctions attract
lots of scammers and non-payers for some reason.

Someone emailed me recently saying that he wanted to buy my "1967" El Camino
and that he needed to buy it right away and wanted to know if he could fly
in and drive it home. Any time somebody says he wants to drive it home, it's
a scam. Not to mention that mine is a 1969 and it is not for sale. I didn't
even bother responding.
