    Sold my car "as is"
    Two days ago I sold my car. My check engine light was on along with the speedomeder not working. As far as I knew the milage was still working but I'm not positive... anyways they were very much aware of the probles with the car and still purchased it. I sold it "as is" and on the title I wrote how many miles it had but did not check the box "stating the milage is correct". Am I suppose to refund them for the money of the car? I told them that I was not giving the money back because I didn't sell them something they didn't want, as far as I knew they wanted it, they purchased it, so I just need some help... information if I did the right thing. Any suggestions? Thanks :)

    Why are they looking for their money back?

    In general, a contract is binding unless there is a reason otherwise. If you sold them a car which had been disguised or falsified in some way, then they would have a case, but if they just didn't go a thorough check before buying and now find there are more problems than they were expecting, they no, they don't get to give the car back.

    Hello gurl:

    Sure. Don't give the money back.

    No, you are not supposed to, and will not have to unless they can come up with a better reason than they have. I suspect they are simply experiencing "buyers' remorse". Don't loose any sleep over it.
