[Shotimes] Buying/shipping a car questions

[Paul L Fisher]

Just did a Google search and http://www.a1-auto.com/quote.html has a quote
system. There were pages and pages of transport companies.

As for exchanging the title for the checks, I would personally rather have
the title in my hot little hands, not in the car. If it is in the car and
someone steals it from the transportation company, they would have the car
and the signed title.

I live in the greater Chicago area and if you want, I could be an impartial
3rd party that you mail the checks to and I'll get the title for you and
FedEx it to you. It would be best to do it the day the transport company
picks up the car so that the guy doesn't drive off with it. Just pay for
FedEx and I'll do it.
