webfact Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Crime Suppression Division police have impounded more than 130 cars, which had been pawned by their owners at a used car dealership in Chon Buri Province and which the dealer then re-sold without consent. Two suspects were taken into custody CSD police said today (Saturday) that police searched seven locations in Chon Buri, Nonthaburi and Chachoengsao provinces after they received complaints from car owners, who claimed that they could not redeem cars which had been pawned with a car dealer in Chon Buri, allegedly linked to the “Jae Ploy Chon Buri” network. One of the owners said that when he went back to settle the debt and get his car back, he was told that the car had already been sold.

ALLSEEINGEYE Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Another big payday for the police when they get commissions on solving this case? Did they bring in Joe Ferrari as a consultant to solve this mystery? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Had they not been paying regular interest? The way it works is they get a loan and have to pay a regular interest and storage charge... if not the vehicle can be sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdenner Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The red Nissan 3rd from the left belongs to TW's nephew. He is in the process of getting it back no mention of kickbacks to the BiB at this stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confuscious Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Surprised that they have named the dealer "Car for Cash". Wonder if the "Car for Cash (Chonburi)" company will launch a defamation suit to get their money back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritScot Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 10 hours ago, Ralf001 said: Not a new concept, what countries can you NOT pawn your car ? Uk if it has any outstanding finance on it. Refinancing but stricked financial regulation apply. If a bank lends you money to buy a car/anything and you are not in a financial position to pay back the loan then its the banks fault however if you lie on the application that's fraud and big trouble......

Right, so if the vehicle has no outstanding finance the owner can pawn it. Thanks for the long winded reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not straightforward and something that is very uncommon in the uk, infact I've never heard of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a look and pawning vehicles I've just found are for luxury/sports/prestigious vehicles not bobs pickup. You can however refinance.

I had a neighbour used to pawn his and it was just a reasonable condition pick up. Got short of cash sometimes and work was hard to find, he could do without transport for a week or so.
