...trouble, what can i do? Is it illegal to sell cars on the internet?
I am selling cars on the internet to make a little extra pocket money. Times are hard and i need the money. However a local dealer is sending people to collect information about the car and my details.
I presume he wants to report me for some made up offence.
However i see the internet as free and open. What can i do about this car dealer as he is given me so much trouble??
Is there a law against selling cars on the internet?? I see it as just common sense to try and help myself, but this car dealer seems to think he rules the patch. He just doesnt understand that the internet changes the dynamics of the game.

Has anyone any advice on what i can do about this problem?
 
Apart from wasting your time, what harm can he do by getting details from you ? It's not illegal, but if he threatens you he's committing an offence.
 
Are you in the UK? In this case, you could be committing an offence, namely evading income tax, and evading VAT. All your profit is certainly taxable as income, and you could be liable for VAT (if your total annual sales exceed £67,000)
