    The perfect storm. Hurricane You've-gotta-be-kidding mates with Tsunami Tell-me-you're-joking.
    DIYers interetsed in similar experiments in soul extracting frustration, here's the steps-
    1.List vehicle on CL or Forum specifically catering to your particular car.
    2.Spend untold, countless hours responding to frivolous inquiries into car from strangers who like to text inane questions. The more inane, redundant, already explained in the ad the topic is, the better.
    3.Become involved in "what's your bottom dollar" discussion from people who can't even pronounce the model name of the vehicle correctly, and have twelve dollars and thirty two cents to their name.
    4.Remove the vehicle from said Listing, without having sold it. As enticing as receiving fifty dollars a week for the next two years from Jamahl's sister Ne-Ne, you don't have time to learn the ins and outs of the car title pawn and repo business. Waiting list on firearms a hassle.
    5.Retire idea of selling car. Plan to store it in the driveway or garage where it will quickly turn into a sunbleached dusty eyesore sitting on three and a half flats. You will someday restore back to "better than new" condition. This will be a collectible classic. In the year 2060.
    6.Find your Humanity. Offer to help the neighborhood kid who's down on his luck by getting him fully mobile. The real reason he's had so much trouble with his reputation (other than the drug and alcohol arrests) is he just doesn't have enough freedom to get out there in the world and find himself. Nothing turns a wayward teen around like the massive dose of confidence they will get from riding around in a car that still has your tags on it.
    7. Don't worry about the money part of it. People are ultimately good inside. And the kid you sold (gave) your car to will inherently feel this humanity, and reciprocate your good will and trust with excellent reasons why He cannot afford to give you any money yet. And the reasons will get more and more better as time goes on.
    8. Post your wonderful experience (social experiment) with selling your car online. Ask what you did wrong. thank your wife for all her helpful guidance in the matter.

        Damn Flavio, why did i not see this thread last week.
        Go to the DMV and tell them you lost the pink slip. Get new title, this will void the old one out.
        Now go back and claim the car and send his sorry ass back to the bus.

            So what was the total amount you sold the car for? I'm not sure if I missed it...

            He gave him the pink though brooo. He could have registered it in his name already like he legit sold it to him. Now that there's no formal, written, signed contract for payments, he might be SOL.

            During an auto purchase I always take the time to fill out the pink together, write a formal bill of sale stating the amount paid, and even have some friends there as witnesses. Anyone could just claim:

            "We agreed on a deposit then payments."
            ..."No, I paid for the car in full."
            ......"Do you have proof payments were to be be made?"
            ...........

              If he transfered the car already under his name, it's game over.
              Just turn in the release of liability form into the DMV ASAP to save yourself from more problems like tickets and parking violations.

                I'll say this...
                A few weeks ago some bloat called me begging for my e39 540 I had for sale for $4500.
                It's been for sale for about a month as nobody wants an auto 540. we came to a mutual agreement on $4000. I get the car cleaned and prepped and ready to roll. I call him with the place to meet and he gives me this shit about how his parents couldn't give him all the money. I then tell him "Sorry, call me when you get the cash". not to be a dick but I've been there and done that waaaay too many times. I'm a hard seller and I've sold way too many cars for my age.
                He calls back crying about how he really needs the car and it's his dream car. I say "great, so get the cash and come get your dream car!" he says fine and thanks anyway.


                5hrs lateer he calls back again crying and begging saying he'll bring $3100 now and will give me some more when he's able.
                I talk to my GF and she tells me to stop being a dick and get rid of it before it cost me more $$$. I say fuck it and he comes to get the car. He doesn't even look at anything just gets in and drives off. No documents were signed however I did take a picture of his ID and made him sign a bill of sale however, he did not get a copy. the very next day my car is on craigslist for double what he paid me!
                I''m still thinking about calling the cops and reporting it stolen just because the fucker lied to me. I was plaid. I'm calmer about the whole thing now and just bit the bullet and said fuck it. Shit happens.

                Cliffs:
                listening to any female will get you fucked up or fucked over.
                Be stern and take no shit or excuses when selling shit. You're selling with your benifit in mind, not the sellers.


                p.s. Should I just call the cops and get my shit back? idk...

                    Update still gave me the run around. I now decided if on Tuesday I don't get a payment like he promised, he will regret doing business with me. This is a BIG lesson for me no more will I be a nice guy business is business. He did put car under his name do to my dumb az giving up reg. etc.

                      Yes, because if no documents were signed, YOU OWN THE CAR. And if you say he stole it, he stole it.

                            I take it you have his address...and I take it he lives with his parents...have you considered talking to them about the whole situation?

                            Shit, didn't see this...

                            Still might be a good try to get in contact with his parents though, you never know...

                              he stole it all (like your car). and will probably HAVE to pay rent or be evicted..so, his priorities and monies are changed....you will not be his top priority any longer. (if even in the top 5)

                              another friend of our group gets him a job..but its far away
                              he needed a car, and buses didn't run at his hours.

                              i sell him my celica for 50bucks, and 25 bucks a month till the grand total of 500 bucks and title will be his...just enough to keep beer in my fridge, and he gets his life back on track...

                              then, low and behold, 1st week he drives through a median, takes out conrtol arm and steering rack... and we re-weld the suspension back up no charge...

                              one week later, loses job.
                              immediately after that..starts doing drugs...or sooner, really don't know.
                              crashes car, or totals it...really i have no real idea what happened to it, just disappeared and he was still around with cuts and bruises....and no car.

                              weeks later, he is back in jail, and we never see him again... too much of a fuck up..

                              we tried, as much as we could, but i still lost a decent car, and $$, and what used to be a friend.

                              what i would do in your shoes....
                              take collateral if you can, he's got to have something...tv, xbox, ps3, iphone, stereo, something that will inspire him to remember his oath(s)...and get car back asap...
                              strip all parts he added and sell them, then sell the car back to him at full price....im going off on a rant now...
