I can already hear some of you thinking, "Just walk away."
But I have a soft spot for risk and rewards 😄
Lately, I've been eyeing vehicles online that are listed at half or even a third of their market value. The catch? The seller only has a copy of the blue book, promising that the vehicle can be re-registered despite its history with pawnshops and failed loans/mortgages.
Now, I'm well aware that this could easily turn out to be a classic scam (send a deposit, then poof! Seller vanishes), or worse (stolen car anyone?). However, my love for cars and deals has me curious. Has anyone here ever successfully bought a vehicle through an auction or from a pawn shop without a blue book and managed to get it re-registered? Or do you know someone who has?
Any firsthand experiences to share, (before I bother my lawyer)?
If so, I'd love to treat you to coffee and pick your brain. 😊
