Hi Everyone. I am in the process of trying to sell my car, and have received an email from someone who wants to buy it. Sounds good. However, the buyer wants to send a 'shipping agent' to pick it up and sort out the paperwork - Is it possible to sign all the paperwork without the actual buyer present, bearing in mind I wouldn't even know if the buyer is who he says he is?! He has offered to send a cheque covering the car and the cost for the shipping (I don't know if this means abroad), and 'any other costs', and has asked me to clear the cheque, take the cost of the car and then send the excess money to the shipping agent who will then come and pick it up. It all sounds a bit wierd to me, but can anyone see any problems with doing this? Thanks.
