I've sold probably 30 used cars over the years. Most people don't show up with your asking price in cash. You take a deposit while they sort out their finances. And if you're buying a used car, you do the same thing. New car likewise.

I never take a deposit, or leave a deposit, on cars. If you don't have your finances set up already then why are you looking at private sales. Need a week to sort out your finances then fine, but I can't guarantee the vehicle will still be here. If I'm buying private, I don't even look at vehicles that I don't already have the cash for.
