Seller's remorse turns car deal sour

It was a case of seller’s remorse in a vehicle sale reported to Kalispell Police. A woman had bought a car from a friend for $350, but the seller later wanted it back due to parental disapproval. The seller didn’t want to return the money to the woman, however, which resulted in the call to the police. Police advised that it was a civil issue, but in some respects it appears more uncivil.

A woman called the sheriff’s office because her child’s bike might be on the neighbor’s property. She didn’t want to ask the neighbor herself because he is “grouchy.”

After buying a car from someone through Craigslist, a Ferndale Drive resident said that the car hasn’t been delivered and the seller is nowhere to be found. Deputies responded and the woman planned to speak with the online service.

After a Rapids Avenue couple co-signed on a vehicle for their child, they asked the Columbia Falls Police Department about repossessing it because the child wasn’t making payments.
