Story Times...
Every story below is from a Ugandan private car seller No one will believe!!!...
The dealer offered 28M. I sold it for 52M on OwnerCar.
I took my RAV4 to three dealerships. The highest offer was 28 million UGX. They said the paint had 'micro scratches' and the tyres were 'worn.' I listed it here instead. A buyer came the next day, inspected it, and paid 52M. The same car. Same scratches. Same tyres.

Kampala — 2018 Toyota RAV4
They deducted 'documentation fees' I never agreed to.
I agreed on a price with a broker. When the money came through, 3.5M was missing. 'Processing fee,' he said. 'Transfer tax.' 'Photography fee.' None of this was in our agreement. I had already signed the papers. I had zero leverage.
Sarah N.
Entebbe — 2016 Subaru Forester
The broker took my car for 'inspection' and disappeared for two weeks.
He seemed professional. Asked to take the Prado to his 'mechanic for a quick check.' That was on a Monday. By Friday he wasn't picking up. By week two I found my car parked outside a random garage in Nateete with a For Sale sign on it — priced 15M higher than we agreed. He was selling it out from under me.
