You all are probably wondering how can I find a used car for $50,000?

Here is what happened between me and the dealer:

The actual price is $11,500

Me: It does not look worth $11,500, it looks worth $50,000

Seller: *Laughing* Is this a joke?

Me: No, this is not a joke, I am willing to pay $50,000 to you

Seller: Stop playing with me and be serious

Me: I am not playing around, I can go to the bank and get $50,000

Seller: Okay

Then I went to the bank and took out $50,000

Seller: I am shocked that you would give me $50,000 I can not take it, it is not worth $50,000, it is worth $11,500

Me: I beg you to take it

Seller: Okay then

Me: Can I take $20 off so it could be $49,980 instead?

Seller: No

Then we shook hands and I drove away with the new car

My friend took the car I gave him to the body shop for a repair estimate and it costs $7,415.64 so my friend paid $7,415.64 in cash to get it repaired

Oh you wouldn't have received a check from the insurance company that fast ...

You know, if you are going to make up stuff at least get the time-lines right.

Your friend is crazy too.
Only reason it took that fast is because I live a block away from the insurance company so I got the check the next day

Yes, I paid $50,000 for that

Your friend paid $7,500 to fix a car worth about $2,000 in good condition that you said was worth $100 and your insurance company said was worth $1,000?

Probably. It doesn't take much with older cars.

If it's not your fault , then yes you can go to there insurance and let them inspect ur car but first u hasve to bring to a trusted shop then they can help you determine if it's fixable or not. Take note that u have the rights if u wanna kill it or save it
