This morning I had agreed to buy a 1996 Blazer off a private seller.
The deal was for us to meet tomorrow at his bank. We were to wait for my cashier's check to clear into his account. Then the plan was to get the title signed over and notarized.
This afternoon I get a message that he wants to meet me at the Chevy dealership. From what I can gather, they want to do the sale there, so that the dealership can treat it like a trade-in and the guy will pay less taxes on their new car.
Has anyone ever heard of this? What does the dealer gain in this? It just sounds fishy to me and I'm ready to call the whole deal off.
