Getting ripped off, How to avoid ,help

[spanic69]

I am looking at a used vehicle from auto123, Are there any measures that auto123 takes to make sure their postings are ligitamate. or can you post anything with no verification? Also seller wants to do the deal through yahoo finance. Does anyone know how to verify a transaction with yahoo finance. Has anyone used this service?

You shouldn't buy a car that you can't test drive and inspect first.

AMEN !!

Would you buy a pair of shoes without trying them on?? Why would you buy a $5,000 item without trying it or making sure that it is OK?
