Yes, you can cancel the sale if the offer changes at pickup. Do not sign over your title or accept any payment until you're sure you're going to go through the transaction. You're not obligated to sell, especially if you feel there is any fraudulent activity involved.
Your rights at pickup:
- You can decline a reduced offer
- You can accept a new price if fair
- You can ask the driver to leave
- You don't owe the buyer anything
- You keep your car
Sometimes drivers will use pressure tactics with the hopes that you will lower the price, whether acting impatient or saying they drove a long way. Don't fall for it. A reputable buyer honors their quote. Cancel and contact a different service.
Document everything and report it to the Better Business Bureau if you choose. Reviews help other sellers to avoid these bad businesses.
