Hey guys i sold my car today i had a 1998 m3 i also have a 1983 944 that i don't want to part with but i feel i made a mistake i don't normally accept personal checks for cars but i did today now don't get me wrong i'm not stupid but i feel a little dumb let me explain i was selling my car on evilbay with no success so i posted it on craigslist every time i do that you always get many calls so this young man call me and says he likes the car and wants it but because he is working today he would send his parents to see the car and if they agreed pay for the car. they live about 40 minutes from me so i said o.k they came and liked the car by the way i gave the car away 74000 miles 98 m3 all records for 13500...any how they liked it and gave me a personal check i took a copy of his dads license and only gave him a copy of the title not the original and i told him to overnite my plates tomorrow i checked to see if the bank was legit it is and i checked the dads place of work since he left me his card i have 4 phone numbers...dads,the young man and home and work...on monday i will deposit the check and wait the three days for it to clear.then when i receive my plates and the check clears i will send the title..i know i took some precautions but i still feel stupid maybe because i lost about three grand on the car? thanks
