The problem is cars unlike real estate and other things dont have a 3 day right of recision, you cant tie one up for 2 months with a small deposit while you look for financing,inspect the house, do title searches, look for a better deal,or go on line and look for the SYC real estate site and ask questions about why the title says"telephone company easement". Car buying is almost always a spur of the moment thing that needs quick response and decision making[ebay auction, car at a show,or live car auction],potential buyers get the feeling of people looking over thier shoulder ready to take a risk which leads to alot of impulse and bad decision buying because people are afraid of "losing out" on a deal.If you get wound up in the frenzy ,yes you run the risk of making a bad choice. A perfect example was a local auction recently that was listed here for a supposed 67 ss chevelle out of an estate. The car had no title,was stuffed tight in a trailer and they wouldnt roll the car out,nothing matching,came with a "zl1" motor that was actually a tall deck painted silver,it was in a trailer where the doors couldnt be opened[who knows if a vin tag was even on the door jamb,much less an SS specific vin tag] yet it brought about 27K for a car needing resto.It was like a pirhanna feeding frenzy with people climbing on the car to look at it. When the doors are finally opened and there is no vin or a malibu vin,[or for that matter the car was a rebody] why should anyone give this bidder his money back????
