It doesn’t happen to people use some common sense when shopping on the Internet. Who buys a car from some random person they met on the Internet? Ever hear of cars.com? You can find any car you want from a legitimate dealer, and purchase it at that dealer’s location. Totally apart from the extreme outcome of this case, the likelihood of ending up with a stolen car is huge in a scenario like this.

Well, the guy who bought a car from us bought it off the internet. Not only that, he saved a whole lot of money, because there was no huge dealer markup. And, we didn’t get robbed trading a good used car for a fraction of it’s worth.
There have been several large,very highly advertised used car dealers in this tri-state area found selling cars with no valid titles.Leaving dozens of buyers with two payments and a car they can't license and many dollars and much time wasted.These dealers had nice modern offices ,prime high-traffic locations,sponsored community events,had remote broadcasts at their lots,professional websites,etc.
And ripped people off!
Are you one of those who advocate no private transactions?
Do you really think the nation and people would be better if everyone could buy only from a licensed reseller,and your sole choice in disposing of your property was the trash bin or meekly accept the pittance the used goods store might offer?
No flea markets?
