    Carfaux is worthless
    I bought a salvage/wreck with a "spotless" carfax

    if the dealer is all gung-ho on it, have him print it out for you

    You said it better and to the point. Yes carfax is useless. great sales pitch, for the lot, bad for the buyer.
    But, But the carfax was good.
    What happened to dealers pitching the "Free" carfax report for every used car sold??

    I'm aware CARFAX scams the dealers and their customers this way.

    I only deal private party and want to know if i'm being fed a line about the original owner. One way to possibly discover that is through one of these services.

    Have the seller pay for it.

    I would rather get a FREE Car Fox than copy of Car Fax.
