I don't have any evidence, and I don't think I stated that was the case in definite terms, only my opinion based on the fact that when you win an auction or you sell the car you receive an email containing this text:
"Tips below to assist in finalizing the transaction.
Make contact with the buyer ASAP.
Always try to remain calm, friendly, and polite. The #1 reason we see car deals fall apart is not the car; it is disrespect or bad attitudes from the buyer or seller.
Provide a factual Bill of Sale when taking payment.
Provide a photocopy of the title if requested to justify payment.
Do not release the car or the actual title until you have full payment in hand.
We suggest Wire Transfers for payments."
In my view, if there wasn't a material number of trades failing to settle, there would be no reason for bat to refer to a "#1 reason we see car deals apart"
