Missing or invalid ID!

There are a number of things you can and should do to ensure you don't get taken advantage of when buying and selling items on KSL.com.

• Always be vigilant for scams (especially those claiming to be from or originating overseas)
• Always ask for paperwork (i.e. registration, warranty info, title, etc.) to verify the seller's claims
• Always verify the item's condition before payment
• Have an expert examine the item before you buy
• Always print a copy of the KSL.com classified ad for your records
• Make sure the terms of the sale are clear
• Create a simple contract and accompany the seller to notarize and validate the transaction
• Meet the seller in person in an open and public location
• Be cautious of anyone who refuses to communicate on the telephone
• When buying a vehicle, have the seller accompany you with the title to the DMV (if they refuse...red flag)
• Call the DMV and ask the agent if the seller owns the car and is able to sell it (800-DMV-Utah)
• Be honest about your expectations

Most importantly, if something seems out of the ordinary or inconsistent - take precautions to protect yourself.
