If it has a lisence plate on it... I believe it is...
Regardless, I thought all sales of all items are as-is unless warranty is implied...
So the buyer is in California, but he is flying out to Washington State to sue you for $1500??? Cost wise, can't see how that would work...
I too have been in court multitudes of times, primarily as a landlord...
What I learned:
1) Winning is pointless 90% of the time, you will never collect
2) Liens are worthless, see point #1
3) Wage garnishment is pointless, unless the person is a high wage earner (tenants never are)
4) Court dates get pushed back often... each day off costs me money
5) A typical court case isn't what you think. It usually takes 2 minutes start to finish, and the decisions are based on snap judgements by the Judge. You will see a judge go through 50 cases in 2-3 hours...
The reciept, as typed by the buyer, signed or not, states it is "as-is."
Good luck...
