? For those who have recently bought or sold a vehicle

specifically for a cashless payment, i'd be looking at a direct wire transfer or a certified cashier's check. there's also the option of an escrow company, but not knowing how much dough we talking here, it (the fees) may not be worth it.

if the person is local or coming into town to buy it, they should be amenable enough to just skip over to the bank and knock it out after agreeing on the price. what's another 30min or whatever to square away a transaction in a tidy and satisfying manner.

and i totally get you on not wanting to roll with stacks of cash. i was tasked with completing a transaction for a client on a car-- basically i had to fly in, inspect the car and pay the dude-- and at the last minute the seller got real adamant about it being all cash on pick up. which, if it was local, fine. but my *** ain't rolling into unknown territory carrying gobs of loot with who knows what kind of people expecting me and that money. no thank you. also, i didn't want the headache at the airport. the deal smelled funny so we put the kibosh on it. few months later i found a better car, more locally for less money.
