Any advice ? </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">It depends on the level of trust. When I bought a car in Texas (ca. 2004) I provided a small deposit to the buyer WITHOUT transferring the title. I arranged for shipping and once the car arrived I wired the remaining balance at which point I received the title in the mail (next day shipping). I also sold a car to a buyer in Canada two years ago. We exchanged identifying information (copy of title, copy of drivers license, signed purchase agreements) and he provided me with a 50% deposit. Once he arrived in person he gave me the remaining balance and I handed over the title. How has your interaction been with the seller? Look up flight specials, it may be worth the cost to just fly out and handle the transaction in person and you can arrange shipping pick up ahead of time. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Mr.10psi</b> <br /><small>Member # 11062</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2016,9,3,0,57,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Get as much information from them as possible. Do a wire a transfer. Have them put the car up on ebay as ebay has a 50k insurance policy to ensure the vehicle shows up to your location. Have them send you the vehicle title via certified mail. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
