Buying a machine online from a dealer you have never met takes trust. Mike at Rippa USA Sales, in Boyd, Texas, walks through how a buyer can check whether a dealer is legitimate and how to pay safely.


HOW TO VERIFY A DEALER


1. Check that the address on the dealer website matches the address on Google Maps and the address they give you. When all three line up, you can be 90 percent or more sure the dealer is real.

2. Look for a physical location. Does the dealer have machines sitting on the lot or in a building?

3. Ask to see the machines, or come visit. Mike says he would love for customers to stop by.


PAYMENT METHODS


- Rippa USA Sales takes check, cashier's check, cash and bank wire for machine purchases.

- A bank wire to a US dealer costs a typical sender about $20, which is small against a machine price of thousands of dollars.

- A certified check not drawn on the dealer's own bank can take 7 to 9 days to clear, so it is not faster than a regular check.

- Be careful with any seller who pushes you toward unusual payment methods or will not let you see the business.
