The safest way to pay for a car you've never touched
Private vehicle sales fall apart for one of three reasons — every one of them a money problem. Escrow removes all three before they happen.
It's rarely the car. It's always the money.
Pay first, hope for the best
The buyer wires the full amount before ever seeing the car. If it doesn't arrive, or arrives wrecked, there's no one to call.
Ship first, hope it gets paid
The seller lets the car go on a promise. Once it's on someone else's driveway, that promise gets a lot easier to walk back.
Nothing in writing
A verbal deal over a marketplace chat isn't something either side can point to later if the story changes.
Same handshake, less risk riding on it
The keys still change hands the same way they always have. What's different is that neither person had to decide who moves first.
A referee for the money, not the miles
We sit between the buyer and seller holding the cash, not the car. Nobody gets paid, and nobody hands over keys, until the terms both sides agreed to are actually met.
Terms go in writing
Price, condition, and the inspection window get locked into one short agreement both sides sign.
Money moves — to us, not them
The buyer funds escrow. The seller sees proof the money exists without ever having access to pull it early.
The car actually ships
Transport is coordinated the same way any other order runs, with the same tracking and photo documentation.
One signature, then payout
Buyer inspects, signs off, and the seller gets paid within one business day. Any disagreement routes to our resolution desk first — no money moves until it's settled.
Before you ask
Does this only work for cars?
No — motorcycles, RVs, boats, and equipment sales all go through the same escrow process. If it's a private sale with a title or bill of sale, it qualifies.
What happens if the buyer and seller disagree after delivery?
Funds stay frozen in the trust account while our resolution team reviews the inspection photos and the original agreement. Nobody gets paid until it's resolved.
Is this only for people also shipping through Logistic Legends?
No. Escrow can run on its own — you can arrange your own pickup and still use our trust account to protect the payment.
