Slightly off topic but I am sure someone on this forum knows the answer.
My widowed sister's SUV quit last month and I am trying help her, she doesn't want any car payments and has a limited budget but enough I am sure I can find a reliable replacement. I have not purchased a used car from a dealership for at least 30 years and was surprised when a used car salesman told me they did not have the title but would send it to her when it was changed over, I immediately thought it was a scam and walked away. Well, today it happened again, the dealership said I would get a bill of sale and the title would be mailed. Is this legal, we will be paying in cash, dealerships where in GA and SC? I would prefer to buy from a private owner but she really wants a typical style and color which limits our options. Appreciate your thoughts.
