Don't pay in advance before you see and check what you want to buy.

Scammers are people like you and me! There are still greedy people who run for unrealistically cheap things, in the end they are deceived. The result : Can you say something else about JIJI ?

These sites are as safe as checking out the car thoroughly before negotiations and payment.
..they may be as unsafe as payments before seeing what you're buying! undecided

Whether u check car before u pay or drive before you check, always use ur instinct. FLEE from prices that are too good to be true. Like say u see Tin Can 2009 Corolla for 600k

I bought my car from olx . And I'm still using it now. Just check all d documents and also verify from police station
Re: Pls Advice Me, I Want To Buy Car On Jiji Or Olx Or Cheki, Pls How Safe It Is by Mikkylounge: 10:12pm On Mar 27, 2018
I have bought and sold cars on olx..infact the guy i bought from released the car even without collecting all his money.
I sold a car on jiji, the buyer paid money without seeing the car..he's grooving his car today, almost a year later.
The sites are safe, just inspect the car, check the documents and then pay. You'll be fine

There is No good or bad choice anywhere. It is all about US! HUMANS!!

Who posts on Jiji, Olx and others? No be the same people that you meet all around everywhere?

Either you buy cars directly from owner, Road side sellers, a mechanic, showrooms or online adverts. If you are careful and wise, you are safe. If you are too forward, greedy and impatient. You will be a victim.

My current car was from OLX. We negotiated for a very long time before we both agreed, all the while i was monitoring him closely and physically cos i recognised the car immediately the day i saw it on the road. I knew he wasn't in a hurry to sell.

Went there with a mechanic to check when i wanted to finalise the deal after test driving.
It's almost a year now. No issue.
