I need safety tips on buying a used car on line from a private seller.?

Go see the car first before any cash is traded hands in any way or form. Or have the person take the vehicle to a certified dealership for that make. Have the car put on the long inspection list they have then have the results faxed to you by the dealership, not the owner of the car.

To buy strictly on pictures and text only from an email would not be wise.

If this is how you plan on purchasing the car then I have a few bridges I am willing to sell ya.

that is no longer a great difficulty- he must have given you the identify alongside with a bill of sale yet you are able to in simple terms flow to the DMV and tell them the VIN and instruct them the bill of Sale and they should be able to provide you a identify...until eventually the automobile nevertheless has a lien on it in which case you've a lengthy conflict in simple terms before you. If the employer had a loan and did not pay it off then the lender holds identify and could no longer hand it over until eventually the automobile is paid off. solid success.

ask a lot of question,s from the buyer,,find out all you can,ask to see all the pictures, you can,,if your close enough to the car,,go and see it,,if possible,,buying a car on-line is kind of risky,,,,there,s a lot of thing,s that you can,t see even in a picture on the ,,net,,another thing,,you can,t hear it run either,,really what your doing is saying hear i am,,take advantage of me,,because that,s what a lot of people are going to do,,i have a friend who bought a boat on the net,,and from a picture it looked really good,,but for 2500 buck,s i would have wanted to see more,,but he didn,t,,when he went to get it,,he was shocked,,and there was no backing out,,it was already payed for,,last year i wound up selling it for him,,it only brought 200 buck,s,,so beware,,i wish you well on this,,hope this help,s you.

have somebody go with you to check out the inside also the outside for any work, and also make sure all the part working.

most of all test,test,test drive !!
