Sold a car a couple of years ago for 20K cash. Buyer arrived at my bank, we did the bill of sale, he turned over the 20K and I made a deposit. It was cash so there were papers but they ran all the 100 dollar bills through their counter (which detects counterfeits) and I had the money in my account then. No worry about counterfeit or being ripped off. Buyer looked the car over and left the money and his wife with my wife while we went for a test drive. 1942 Ford Fordor street rod. Still miss it.

Cash.... it’s $15,000 not $400,000
Bank cashier check. Call and verify
That makes sense. I didn't think to call and verify it.
Lots of good tips here. Thanks, all.
Go to the bank, have him give you cash, deposit it in your account and once it goes through you are good to go.
i sold a car for 12k a few years ago and took cash. it's next to impossible to counterfeit money these days and unless they pay in 1 dollar bills 15k doesn't take up much space.
Certified cashiers check at the bank or cash at the bank.
Dude
$14k?
That's only about a backpack full of match ammo at today's prices.

I sold a travel trailer two years ago for similar amount. I met buyer at his bank and watched him withdraw/receive the cash from a teller. Deal done there at bank and bank manager notarized our documents.
