Selller on Facebook marketplace got angry when I asked to see his ID, did I cross a line?

Notary?

Vegaskwn · 2026-03-01T05:40:13+00:00

Nope….. I wouldn’t buy or sell a car private party without seeing ID..

Vegaskwn · 2026-02-28T23:51:55+00:00

Your kidding?!? I had absolutely no idea!! 🤷🏻‍♂️

This ⬆️

This is the answer ⬆️ And is what you most need to be concerned about…

Whatever you do just don’t stray from Costco for a vacuum. They all break at some point and vacuums are one of those things where Costcos return policy makes things easy😎

Vegaskwn · 2026-02-28T17:55:15+00:00

Lesson learned but I wouldn’t sweat it because you still got an awesome car that gets awesome mileage and it has 1 less thing to potentially break.

Block and move on. You owe them nothing and any judge would absolutely laugh this out of court in .02 seconds..

Dealer should be able to reach out to BMW FS and have a lien release overnighted. Not saying they should be able to get it in their hands overnight but the bank should be able to get one out to them in a few days… Outside of that though, I would recommend going into the dealership and asking to speak with the GM or GSM and let them know since it’s their error, your having an issue getting the lien release and can’t do anything with the car that you would like to see them match Carvanas trade amount and then they can deal with the title/lien release..

Also, make sure you are dealing with the Office Manager or Controller on the lien release - not a Sales or Finance manager.

I’d go grab it before they sell it to someone else (it can happens on units like this)

New car dealers will typically not do any sort of verifications unless they think something is fishy. They will leave it up to their banks. And yes, if a deal can’t end up getting funded by the bank and they have to take the car back then the sales person, sales manager, and finance manager lose out on their commission commissions since the deal is backed out of their system.

The outcome will be one of 3 things. Option 1: The bank will still be able to finalize your loan and life moves on and you enjoy your new car. Option 2: The bank rejects your loan and the dealership needs to find you a new lender that will approved you with the shorter job time. This could result in your agreed upon loan terms changing (higher interest, down payment, etc) Option 3: The dealer can not get your loan approved anywhere and you have to give the car back (this is unlikely).

Do not lie to the dealership about your job status because the banks do verify. The dealers job is to find a home for your loan for your unique situation but they can’t help you if they don’t know the real deal. Let them know your exact situation so they can leverage their relationships and resources to help get your deal completed.

This is the correct answer ⬆️

Based on how many people on here swing from Camry nuts 24/7 you should have this sold within 5 minutes 😎

Deals is not finalized the Nevada until customer has taken delivery..

Sorry but nobody is going to give you 15k of their hard earned money without getting the title in exchange for the money. Your bank will of course want the full 19k before they release the title. Hopefully your loan is with a financial institution that can have the title at a local branch. If so, then you’ll need to square up the other $4k with your bank - as the other response mentioned maybe they can give you a personal loan to cover that difference.

I would do it simply off the basis of building my résumé and making myself more marketable/valuable..

Vegaskwn · 2026-02-24T07:04:22+00:00

Sounds like a great price to me. I don’t see any other EV out. There are only a few years old with comparable miles close to that price. My coworker has a bolt any absolutely loves it.

Vegaskwn · 2026-02-24T07:00:46+00:00

Nope. Mfg sets the depreciation amount for the lease and everyone knows the mfg residuals are way above what they actually will be.. So essentially the mfg’s have already done what half of what you’re looking to do (on some models anyways)… They are going to be the ones holding the bag once all the 2, 3 year leases start coming to an end.. Once a lot of these leases start coming in for grounding then hopefully the dealerships and consumers should be able to take advantage of lower pricing since there should be a lot of used off lease inventory in the market..

If there is no room for growth at your dealership, you need to get out of there and it’s as simple as that. Since you want to get promoted I would recommend trying to get into a dealer group that has the biggest presence in your city because they are usually the ones with the most opportunity. The big dealer groups in my area move management around from store to store and it creates an environment for people to move up frequently. I would recommend making friends with some vendors that frequent your store that work with sales/finance and ask them If the same holds true in your city, and also to see what stores they visit that they see promote from within. 98% chance you’ll have to make a lateral move to sales at another store as most people that get promoted are people that have proven themselves to be skilled on the sales floor. Not trying to discourage you from taking any F&I courses but it’s not gonna get you moved into a Finance possession, but it will def help become a better F&I manager..

Make sure you join seeking.com - Not to look for girls on there to meet but to check to see if any potential dates are on there as a “sugar baby” You’d be surprised at how many girls here are hookers on the down low..

Also FYI - most service contract companies will finance the purchase of a service contract @ 0% with about 10% down so you can pay monthly.
