It is a sad state of affairs, and I am not condoning lying or pulling one over on the buyer of the car, but there is a reason why you should inspect vehicles in person before buying them.

Re: thinking about this car.... any help?
Yep, all because people are too stupid to have common sense, so they expect the government to step in and of course they do because they're no smarter.

Dumb is what Keith does. I'm so thankful my tax dollars go toward keeping him in diapers.

Re: thinking about this car.... any help?
I support Ben, Mike, and Nate's points.
It is a consumer's responsibility to educate themselves enough prior to making a purchase. A dealer can only be responsible to a degree when describing a vehicle, as it is pre-owned and it can be argued that grades of condition can be based upon a matter of opinion. I believe that if a buyer is looking for a specific car and have very specific requirements as to it's particulars, it should ultimately be the buyer's responsibility to completely inspect and/or request paperwork, history, photographs/video or other evidence of condition to investigate whether or not they should make the choice to purchase any used car. Keith, I understand how aggravating it can be, when it comes to feeling misled, regarding a vehicle purchase. I've learned that ultimately, the purchase was my choice and it is the buyer's responsibility to educate themselves on what they are choosing to purchase.

Another proud American!! I didn't realize a welfare bum like you had to pay any taxes. You must be referring to the sales tax on cigarettes and beer that your food-stamps don't cover. At least you do pay a little bit, even though it comes out of your welfare check! On second thought, You may not be able to count that as paying taxes, since it comes from us real tax payers Keith |

I bought every single vehicle in my sig sight unseen BUT I ensured that all of my criteria was met long before placing a bid or writing a check. That included 20 pictures of things the seller didn't show so I could make a determination of condition. There are plenty of services out there that will prepare a CR on a vehicle for you which IMO is nearly vital with any purchase to the vast majority of Americans as they don't know a lick about a vehicles true condition once. I guess though to some on this board, it is just cheaper to save the $200 and then know that the gov't is there to bail them out for failing to take personal responsiblity.

I agree with you that one is at fault if they purchase a car without have looked over it thoroughly. Hell I bought a car unseen and went through enough questions about it to feel confident. I had no surprises when I picked it. I don't see where all these attacks about welfare came in but whatever. I think everyone can agree that you should not buy a car without being certain it is in a condition that you will be happy with.
