    It was an auction car... from a shady used car dealer. I got the deposit back. I would never beat someone up, but I was seriously pissed at them for wasting my time, and I let them know that.

    That sucks

    I've always thought that there were too many ways for CARFAX to NOT have the correct information about a car. If I wreck my VX and take it to Jims Auto Body and pay out of pocket to fix it, CARFAX would never know. Although its probably the best service out there, I have always thought it was a racket.

    Once again, this was not a CARFAX report - it was a different service they offer where they send someone out to inspect your vehicle in person.
