If I say I'll pay cash, it means I'm bringing the paper with me to make a deal on the spot. Otherwise could be bank cheque, or internet banking, or generally faffing you about.
I sold my last car to a guy in Auckland who said he'd pay cash and he wasn't joking. $22k in a sports bag...
And it all smelt of hash and spent shotgun cartridges.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Why? They only have 61 horses ...
If I was going to play with a new bonnie - I'd go this way .. and with Norman Hyde bits you can get 85 horses ... nearly as much as my 650 bandit.

My adopted grandfather used to pay for everything with cash, including houses, and he never tossed the word around like people do on trademe. It's really not a big deal, it's how you pay for shit.
Considering you don't usually get a vehicle until the seller has the money in full, cash is more of a convenience for a buyer than a seller.
If anything large sums of cash are more of a hassle than internet banking if you don't have a safe place to put it.
Banks are pushing cheques out the door soon. They are the only way you can give them a big fuck you and withdraw all your money on the spot at the moment.
ha, I bought a bike for 11k once. it was all in $20s as most of it was cash id been saving up. Id stashed it in a drawer in my room, rolled up in lots of $500, held with a rubber band. some of it had been curled up like that for months.
so when I went to the bank and dumped 11k on the counter, they took the rubber bands off, it stayed rolled up tight. Took the poor lady quite a few attempts to count it, as she couldnt roll it out flat, so I stood there trying not to laugh for nearly half an hour while the struggled to get it all counted. poor lady was close to telling me to fuck off i think.![]()
How much longer will we be able to pay with cash though, especially large amounts. I recently transferred via internet banking about $20K into my Westpac account from a credit union account for the purchase of a vehicle. It took them 3 business days to clear the whole amount, they would only clear so much each day, something to do with the new money laundering requirements apparently.
Better hurry up, that SR400 closes in under 15 mins - 7.5k buy now.
Keep on chooglin'
