The announcement was not only on OLX, but also on otomoto. The guy withdrew the ad and it is no longer visible. I bought a car and I have a problem. There was a different number in the ad. VIN and this one was checked, it turned out that the actual VIN differs by 100 positions. Therefore, I need proof in the form of a withdrawn advertisement and the data provided in it.

brand, model, year, price?

You bought the car on the VIN from the advertisement, you didn't check it in real life.
? Good ... Back in the day, when I was still buying cars, several transactions did not take place due to non-compliance with the VIN documents or its absence.

There is no such possibility. OLX does not maintain an archive.

He drives. But not sharing.

Otomoto informs that it maintains the archive for a period of 6 months. The condition is that you must report the matter to the police. If you have been cheated, you should even report it, although there is a saying in our country "they saw what they took.".

It's a fact! I bought the car despite the fact that I knew about the differences in the VIN number. The guy was talking, what about me? A person does not buy a car every day and it is impossible to avoid the emotions that accompany it. I took your word for it. The guy was very nice and persuasive, nothing indicated such a situation. Before I make other decisions, I'd prefer to avoid legal solutions.

I was the fool. How can you buy a car knowing that it has different numbers than in the documents? Just because the guy was nice? What did you believe him? I do not get it.

Before I take any legal action, I'd like to check if this? what I have written in the draft in which I kept notes coincides with what was in the announcement. Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of the ad, I could also save this ad in another way. For the time being, the engine in the year-old Toyota failed, and the Department of Communication sent me to a diagnostician, because the car was a post-accident and there were other damages. I don't know if I was unlucky and it just happened that way, 400 kilometers were missing for the defect to come to light. That's how much I had to drive from where I bought the car to home. Therefore, I am asking for help! I don't want to accuse anyone unjustly.

The VIN number is the same as in the documents, but differs from the one given in the announcement that I checked in various IT systems about the DNA of the car.

You bought a different car than it was advertised. This is how it looks from a formal point of view. What do you want to get by proving to the seller that he gave a different VIN in the advertisement and he sold you a car with a different VIN?

However, sellers upload photos of a given car, and VIN from another, "clean" one, so that someone gets hot and comes. And then on the contract it is checked whether the VIN matches the papers, and not whether it is the same number as in the advertisement. Especially that we are talking about not even a completely different number, but only a different one by 100...

@K3
He added 10 this 10 this then 100 this then this until he found a clean one.
If anything, he'll say it's a typo.
But the buyer was buying the car, he was there and so on.
It's going to be hard to reach. Vin intentionally does not differ by 1500100900 ao plus 1 on a certain position his finger slipped as he entered the ad. He didn't want to cheat, he even gave a vin to check.

@1868piotrptasinski
Potentially a valuable lesson for all thanks for sharing.

Guys - get off the author...
He just wants to find the deleted ad...
And why - it's not our business and it's not for us to judge it.
13+ posts, and we still don't know what kind of car it is, what to look for, and even the enthusiasm to look for the author has already faded...
I would treat it as a little OSINT test :)

Author - you do not want to provide car details, then look for it yourself ...
The VIN (the one given at the auction) is such unique information that after that you could search the network archives and find an ad...
Or a dozen ads

When I bought a car in a consignment shop, it was important to me that it had a glass roof. I had the VIN checked after half a year during the technical inspection. You can? You can.
I would buy smarter now. Although it would probably take about a year

Check your browser history, maybe this ad will open for you.

He will check and find out.



It will only find out what the link to this announcement was

I see that I have interested a few people in the topic, I wanted to share my experience that happened to me, maybe it will be useful to someone. Maybe the guy actually made a mistake and instead of 6 he entered 7 in the ad, and the engine died after 400 kilometers traveled, because that's what he missed and it fell on me and I understand it and I don't have a grudge, but that he concealed the fact that the car it was badly beaten, which I found out only in the communication department about the damage to this car is another matter, the communication department sent me to the diagnostician for a technical review. Now I am waiting for parts at Toyota service to fix the engine. I wonder what else awaits me at the diagnostics?

Mr. Grzegorz, I am writing to you that I am conducting a white intelligence here. Well, I didn't look at it from this side, but after thinking about it a bit more? it may actually look like this. I am collecting information by legal means so far. Regards

Unfortunately, the idea with the history of the browser did not work, the ad is visible in the history, but it is not active, it only shows the price, mileage and year.

Please provide a link to this inactive ad, there is a good chance that a copy of this page is preserved

But there is nothing to argue here, only the police. It's a criminal case.

Where? Not even civilian.

There was an ad that wasn't an offer. The buyer was influenced by the ad and bought the car. The advertisement contained an error, a simple typographical error, officially, of course, accidental from such a long number and the gentleman with glasses was visually impaired or copied it wrongly from the papers or from the car and so on. It will be difficult to prove the intentional action of the seller and even if so what?

They concluded a purchase contract on the spot, the customer looked at the car, bought it, the seller did not seal the VIN number on every second piece of paper and after the case.

How would the seller insist that they were not beaten, etc. But even if he does, he will say that he himself checked the number that he gave in the advertisement.

@eurotips
What about reports on another car? The dude will say that the guy entered the wrong VIN and now he's smart and prove that you're not a reindeer.
The buyer inspected one car and then bought another.

But the announcement is not binding so the case is lost...

and if you buy a car, for example, from the USA, based on what?

Not once did it turn out that such a seller does the same number several times. Only when someone reports to the police, it turns out that there are more victims. And then proving fraud is much easier. There was a high-profile case of a guy who repaired engines and sold them completely refurbished. ... and they barely held together - unfortunately, the case goes on - but many people look at the purchase of a replacement engine differently. Things like this need to be highlighted.

Announcements, advertisements, price lists and other information addressed to the general public or to individual persons shall be deemed, in case of doubt, not as an offer, but as an invitation to conclude a contract.

So it might be in the ad horse for sale and in fact cat can be sold.
