Buying a vehicle through a broker, is it safe? Options

[axelrduvirage]

I have a chance to buy a vehicle for a VERY VERY low price (almost too good to be true). Problem (or paranoia) is that the seller has left the country and is running the deal though an online brokering agent-- moneybookers.com . Does anyone have any experience in these matter? Is it safe? What should I look out for? What demands can I ask of the seller other than the VIN and to actually see the car?

I really want this car and the price is right. I need your input.

Hi,
I know that you have many choices on AutoTrader and I appreciate that you contacted me.
The car is in a perfect condition, 100% original and the engine works great. Like you already have seen in
the pictures, no scratches, no rust, no damages, no hidden defects. I sell it so cheap because I just moved from Canada.The car is still registered there. Those are the reasons why I'm selling it for $8,200.00
including the shipping and insurance charges. All documents and the notarized bill of sale will be provided
along with the car.The transaction will be made under an escrow company called Moneybookers.
I'm a serious seller and a fair trader and I prefer to deal only with a serious buyer. If you consider
yourself one please e-mail me back so we can start our deal.
Thank you!
