does the buyer still have enough to prove fraud?
Herein lies the BAD news from my experience and I am NOT an attorney:
Money exchanged hands between the seller and buyer with bill of sale.
Seller is done unless buyer can prove seller was going to deliver bike to shipper.
If Seller has his CASH, leaves bike and it get's stolen or towed, he is generally NOT responsible for said vehicle anymore, so NOT liable. DMV or tow company calls him and he says, 'I sold the bike, here's the bill of sale....', he's done.
Now, if the SHIPPER promised to pick up the bike and didn't and it got towed, shipper would MAYBE be liable depending on the deal he made with buyer to pick up vehicle and said correspondence.
BAD DEAL.....
