"The seller never needs to meet the person who buys the car." Honestly, this sounds like a HUGE risk to me.

- tlb 12y agoCompare against the risks of meeting in person with respondents to your used car ad: http://www.moneyfile.net/finance-news/dangers-of-selling-your-car-on-craigslist/ http://www.moneyfile.net/finance-news/dangers-of-selling-you...
- krschultz 12y agoThat sounds like exactly the same risk as meeting a person you met online in any conceivable way. Online dating, all of Craigslist, even job interviews have the same risk.
- krschultz 12y agoYea. If I had a nice car, no way in hell I would sell it this way. What stops people from joy riding? Someone could go on Carlypso tomorrow and say they were interested in 'buying' a Subaru STI. Nope, didn't like it. Now they're interested in 'buying' a BMW 3 series. There is a reason you can't walk into a car dealership and start driving cars without someone screening you. If you think that is an idle concern - I've had joyriders come and try to test drive my vehicles that I have listed on craigslist. It is an infuriating waste of time - and the best reason I've ever found to use a dealer/broker to sell things for you.
