[QUOTE="SecondhandSnake, post: 15702180, member: 116684"] I'm selling a rather niche car and I've been contacted by an interested buyer a few states away. It isn't the typical "I am currently out of the country. I will paypal you the money and send a shipper for you to pay..." scam. He found it through a make specific forum, requested some pictures, provided plenty of personal information, and seems to be willing to work something out short of flying out and driving it home. (I can't blame him either; big block, premium fuel, no OD, no CC, and a 10gal tank make for a long, expensive trip) Has anyone successfully dealt with a buyer like that? Is there anything I can do to protect myself? I'm planning on looking into whether any local banks or credit unions offer an escrow service. Or should I just run screaming and wait for someone with cash in hand? Unfortunately that makes for a long wait, given it's such a niche model. [/QUOTE]
