I found a bike on Cycletrader I put a small hold deposit on, HaulBikes contract is active with an estimated possible pickup date on the 21st, and I'm wondering how to deal w/ the title. HB will not handle titles or any private paperwork they say.
The day the truck arrives for pickup I will send payment via PayPal to the Seller once the bike is on the truck and I have phone contact w/ the HB truck driver to verify it's actually happening.
Obviously if the bike arrives and I have no title, I'm a bit screwed it would appear especially if the Seller disappears, dies, etc. And yet if the Seller agrees to send me the title before he's paid, he's got some vulnerability.
If you've done this let me know your thoughts and insights.
Thanks in advance!
