Add mandatory miles description to vehicle posts?!

Flipping auction cars is a fast-paced hustle. Sometimes it takes a minute to get that odometer rolled back.

That's gotten to be pretty tough unless it's an antique..

Well, we haven't had a post bitching about people not putting the miles in their vehicle for sale posts and honestly it's about time for one.

Can't we just add a field and make it mandatory like the price/value one?!

Or pictures........why do so many think they can sell a vehicle with no pictures?

"Can send pics if interested"

If you can send pics you can post pics!

Needs minor repairs that are simple and cheap. If I do it myself, the price is going way up.

What gets me is that most people don't get the hint after XX number of people ask what the mileage is, and then the next time it is relisted.....guess wut...no mileage!

How about if a potential buyer wants the VIN to do a CarFax / Title Search the seller just PMs them? I know of one seller that refused to give me the VIN until I drove across the state to see the car? Huh? One photo clearly showed body work and a poor repaint job, but the guy swore there were no accidents. When I finally did get the VIN (after he re listed the ad about 3-4 times) there were not one, but two accidents on file.

Likewise, there was a guy selling a car locally who was totally disinterested when he learned I lived less than 20 minutes from him. He wanted someone to drive a long way and make their decision to buy on the spot. I wanted to look at the car, test drive it, then consider it. I get that he wanted a sale, but he had zero interest in me looking at the car and getting a CarFax type report.

Red Flag awards to people who won't be honest. If you want to be a used car salesman, go put on some plaid pants and get off the ODT.

I just dealt with that same insanity last weekend. Guy in Cleveland Tenn didn’t have a carfax and wouldn’t send the VIN. Turns out it was a POS chop/rebuild place with rusty crap.
