Recently have a bad experience with a direct seller, most likely will left me carless as my car is sold and my seller car still pending. 2 weeks ago met up with a direct seller, price agreed and everything and i told him ill apply for loan. I then approached a friend who use to work in car trade for help. Loan was approved, i then told seller that i need him to sign buyer/seller agreement and front and back of IC as the finance company says they requires them to verify. Seller told me his aunty was owner so need his aunty to settle. Spoke to the aunty and even got my friend to explain and the aunty say she is afraid to pass her ic front and back or sign any agreement because she scare ill use her ic to borrow ah long =.= she also claims to be very familiar with the procedure for buying and selling used car. Buyer inform me that his aunty going oversea in 2 days time , need to settle the car a.s.a.p. Buyer aunty agrees to provide IC front back and sign the document after i sent her my own IC front back as "insurances" My agent then inform seller side that they can pass him her IC and he will apply the pin for them etc, they refuses as they dun trust us, so my agent told them to go get the pin from LTA themself and also sign on the LTA transfer form before she leave for oversea. The aunty then told me again that she is very familiar with car selling procedure and that she will NOT sign on anything. After explaining, she sign and pass to her nephew to safekeep. Aunty then flew off oversea and Im left to deal with the nephew. Mean while, my own car was sold and new owner collected my car all settle within a few days. I then contacted the seller and ask him if he can let me sign on the transfer form, and also ask him to apply for pin a.s.a.p. My loan and insurance is already ready pending for him. Seller told me he busy, no time apply pin and he dont trust me with the transfer form ( wth? ). He ask me to faster clear his loan and pass him a cheque with the balance, after which he will apply for pin and let me sign on the transfer form, and then we will go to LTA. I told him that if he wish to settle asap, he must work together and follow the procedure, my agent is willing to run a trips down to LTA etc to settle paperwork for us as he is my friend. Seller say he take instruction from his aunty. Now im struck with no car and my job requires me to have 1, and I definitely dont want to apply the pin after giving him the cheque because most likely he will say he is too busy to apply the pin or transfer.

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/sin.../426861/1/.html Abstract from the above link, For the National University of Singapore (NUS), all overseas school trips have been put on hold till May 15. Every year, more than 1,200 students from NUS are sent overseas for attachments. NUS Deputy President (Academic Affairs) and Provost, Tan Eng Chye, said: "Just last Saturday, one of my colleagues met up with some parents and students who were appealing to go to the United States for a Formula One car competition. "It's interesting, I think, the parents actually wanted the school to guarantee the safety of the students, which I think we can't. In the end, we explained to the parents and students that we can't let them go." I can't believe these parents actually ask NUS to guarantee the safety of the students should they go US to participate F1 car competition. Are they trying to act smart by pushing the responsibilties and liabilites to NUS so that if something happens they can launch a lawsuit or are they just plain stupid or naive??? Why those NUS staff never rebute back to the parents, can the parents guarantee their children grow up to be a useful ppl in the society or a pest in the society.
