Bought a duster shell , vin # is on a blacklist , now what ?
Blacklist? ... What does that even mean ?
It's just listed on the Hamtramck website, the VIN is typed out and the notes say the VIN was listed for sale (or sold, I don't know the VIN). Basically it would be searchable, so if you typed in the VIN and searched it would pop up as illegally listed for sale or sold.
Legally it doesn't mean much unless law enforcement has it flagged too, or they check the 'net before they go through the process of issuing a new VIN or something. Again, it depends entirely on how Canada treats this sort of thing.
But if you were going to buy a car for sale and did an internet search on the VIN and found out the VIN was sold online, well, that would be an issue for the seller. I know I wouldn't buy a car like that unless there was a VERY good explanation from the seller and a corresponding check to the DMV to make sure I wasn't getting a stolen car. Or even one I couldn't register. But more than likely it would mean I wouldn't buy the car, which is probably how most people would treat it.
