What Happens After You Buy
- Payment is secured via Escrow.com
- The seller initiates the legal reassignment of the right to display the plate through their state’s authority
- Buyer and seller follow the specific state-based steps for legal reassignment
- Once the transfer is confirmed, funds are released
This process is smooth when everyone is ready.
It slows down when someone has to chase documents or learn rules on the fly.
