I hope this is not a new method to steal your car. This is crazy stuff. Very sad.

that really sucks...but I have to say...I have sold some of my old cars...and I ALWAYS MEET AT A BUSY LOCATION...PERIOD.

They never ever ever come to my home...I always go to the local HOME DEPOT parking lot..or STARBUCKS or gas station...

What was he thinking? Having 2 guys come to your place...you are asking to be jacked. I am sorry for his death..but you have to practice a little common sense in these things.

really sad story....

Good thing we have concealed Carry law here in Mo. Next time I sell a car, I'll have my trusty Glock 27, 40-caliber (sub-compact) , strapped.

when selling high end vehicles, you should meet the prospective buyer in front of your local police station, accompanied by a friend (mine usually work INSIDE the station).

"Police Station" ... Now that is the best place to meet for sure. Even at busy Retailer sites you could still get car jacked. Also having a friend with you could be a help too.

Would my "FAL" be a bit to much?
