Hey there...
I am selling a vehicle. (Posted in classifieds on the GPO forum)
Looking for some advice, as I have never sold a vehicle (other than to a dealer) before.
If any of you buy and sell used cars and have been through the process, I would really appreciate your response.
Obviously, I will meet in a public place and not at my home.
A few questions I have are:
1) What type of payment should I take? I will ask for cash of course, but should I accept a Cashiers Check or Money Order? I have heard about scams on that.
2) When the prospective buyer wants to test drive, do I ride with them? Hold on to their license? Not sure the process here.
3) What kind of bill of sale do I use? Do I put on the bill, "As is - No Warranty - No Returns"
4) What if buyer wants to take to a mechanic? Do I ride with them? I just don't want anyone running off with my car.
5) Should I have someone with me when meeting with the buyer?
Anything else I need to know?
Thanks so much in advance for your feedback!
