Consumer Law, Warranties buyer has not paid full amount of semi

[pathart]

I need advice please. My son sold his semi on EBay to a guy on the opposite side of the country. They agreed to turn over the title when the buyer flew in and then he would pay final amount (about $8000) when he got back to WA, but has not paid anything (and he has a large operation and can afford it). What steps should my son take, or is he screwed because he signed off on the title and the semi is gone? THANK YOU

It gets a little sticky because your son signed the title over to the buyer before the payment of the 8K. What I suggest for you to do is to find an attorney that can try to collect the amount owed to your son from the guy in WA. If no success, then ask the attorney what would be the best option when it comes to suing to recover the remaining amount owed. Good Luck!

Thank you for your advice. Another quick wuestion though, does my son look for an attorney in our state or in WA?

Look for whichever is cheaper on your end.
