| A 1.4L hatchback is definitely a rare car in America though. You could pull a crowd of mulleted denim jacket wearing tyre kickers at any small town car show with one of those. You'd get the full gamut of amazed responses from "I wouldn't want to collide head on with a pick-up in one of those" to "I wouldn't want to collide head on with a truck in one of those".

| Is the prospective buyer a Nigerian prince? If so, you may get scammed twice for the price of one.

Looking at the Western Union stories though, mine seems slightly different. It isnt being paid by cheque, it will be paypal. Also, i will not be paying the shipping, the buyer will. I could also withdraw all the funds from my bank account prior to even releasing the vehicle.
Saying all that though, i have been scared off selling this car to this particular buyer!!

Not so. You withdraw funds against an item believed to be cleared. It doesn't clear. You just owe the money to your bank.

Just a guess, but does he want to pay by Western Union?'"
What's the problem with that?
If I was to seel a car overseas, I'd insist they paid by Western Union

That is not being scammed by Western Union, that is called being an out and out idiot.
If the seller is paid via Weatern Union he can't be scammed, he's got the dosh and can also keep the car if he wants to

Well i also thought the same, but I will be getting the money via paypal.
Somebody said earlier in this thread that once i have received money from the buyer, they can then cancel this if they tell Paypal it was an unauthorised transaction - therefore i lose the money and the car!

I would never use paypal for such a transaction and I use it every day.
Western Union or nothing in this case, with the possible exception of an on-line escrow service
