To some folks, unlike YOU $1500 for a 33 yr old travel trailer missing it's most valuable part which IS the title is a very expensive mistake and well worth getting the money back.

If I sell you something "As-Is" with the expressed statement of NO TITLE AVAILABLE, then I will not give you your money back no matter how much you cry about it.

So apparently to you, the $1500 transaction is "Much Ado"; contrary to your previous snarky remarks. In your eyes, You've unloaded a possibly stolen, untitled, white elephant and ain't giving the money back no way, no how.

Come on man, people lose titles everyday. People sell things everyday without title. It takes one heck of a leap in perception to automatically believe its stolen property. I've got an old aluminum boat sitting at our farm that we haven't had a title or registration for in years, and I can assure you its not stolen. I buy auction items all the time, and in many cases the description states "no title available, bill of sale only". That international auction company must clearly be in the business of dealing in stolen goods.

And why does the concept of "buyer beware" seemingly not apply in this case? This aint Wal-Mart, and you don't get to return something just because you don't want it anymore. I sold a truck to someone a while back, and it leaked a little oil. So if the day after the sale, he climbs in and hits the road, and the engine blows because it was low on oil, should I give him his money back? Sorry, no warranty offered. Sold as-is, where-is.

I respect that the OP hasn't tried to deflect blame in this case, but the truth is they should have addressed the title issue PRIOR to making the purchase.
