要是这一个月中，汽车又出了什么大问题，谁负责呀，你还是想想吧。 -5minutes(看看); 2002-1-29 (#351643@0)
It is better NOT do that. reasons: 1)Honest will not have critical conditions. He should be happy unless it is underrated. 2)Do you know what happens to "your" car, another words, he can give you junks finally. -ondway(一枫家新); 2002-1-29 (#351654@0)
I did the same thing when I bought the car I am driving now. Although we wrote a contract, but I was worring about the car until I got it. So if it is not a really good deal, do not do such thing. -swing-boat(让我们荡起双桨，小船); 2002-1-29 (#351718@0)
谢谢大家。我们的合约，1。交车时检查一下，如果空调, 录音机,灯有问题，他出钱修理，其他不管。2。如果引擎,换档出了问题，或出现了1000元以上的损坏，我可以不买，其他情况不买则定金不退 3。交$600定金。大家觉得合理吗？ -icamefromchina(我来自中国); 2002-1-29 (#351816@0)

直观的感觉是，这个车主不是什么好鸟，还是不要买的好，不要付定金，付了定金你就被动了。在加拿大办事情，请你一定要小心，新移民吃亏上当的例子太多了，好的二手车有多是。 -111111(快乐老家); 2002-1-29 (#351934@0)

If he dissapear, if he own a debt and the car is hold by court. If he dead in accident. forget about it. There are tons cars. -yong(yang); 2002-1-29 (#351918@0)
Don't give the seller deposit. You got the money, I got the car. That is simple. Don't make the thing complicate to save your trouble. Just tell the seller: no deposit, when your car is ready for sale in a month , give me a call. -huimin(huimin); 2002-1-30 (#352698@0)
Are you crazy? One month for a USED CAR? I believe it never happens in Canada. -aabbcc(abc); 2002-1-30 (#352782@0)
