Thread: Buyer security

  1. #1

    Buyer security

    In this world of phantom cars and scams there is still a pretty full proof way to make sure the car is where the seller says it is. I don't often get asked to do this but am happy to oblige. The buyer Ramon, wanted to make sure I was who I said I was and in fact had the car, so me and Sadie were happy to pose for pics with his name, my company name, and the date. If a seller is unwilling to do something that takes 5 minutes with a camera phone, but wants thousands of your dollars, well, he might not be the seller for you.

    Stay Safe Everybody!

    This is common practice (and required) on many collectibles forums (knives, guns, watches), although the sellers image is usually just replaced with a date tag.

    Yes, that is Sadie, daughter of the recently passed Dolemite. This is both of them, one of the last pictures taken of Dolo. She is now 16, blind, mostly toothless, but still goes to work with me everyday, and on trips.
