Lets say, hypothetically, I wanted to sell my Camaro. Has anyone ever sold on ebay? I'm thinking that would cast a bigger net to find a buyer but I do know about the scams on ebay. Obviously I can't take a check from anyone cause it'll probably be fake - so what's the best way of doing a money transaction from an ebay car sale? electronic bank transfer? Although that would probably require me to give my account # which could also be bad.
Another thing. If you buy a car you have to get the title (signed over) so you can get your own title. But since mine isn't paid off, and won't be paid off till a buyer pays it, I don't have a title. The bank has it. So what I think a buyer would have to do is pay up, then it goes to the bank after its verified, once the bank has all its money then they process it and send me a title after which I send it to the buyer. But that can take several weeks. I can't give a buyer the car after they pay because I am fully responsible for it as long as the title is in my name. Are buyers going to be nervous about paying lots of money and not getting the car for several weeks? A scam artist posing as a seller could simply take their money and run. How do you work around this situation?
