It depends on the state, in alot of states they can be held responsible. As a car dealer I always run an autocheck history report (much more info than carfax) to make sure there are no title issues. Check with your dmv to find out what the law is in your state.

After a car is repo can the finance company sell it back to the dealer you bought the car from or is it suppose to be auction off?

Normally it is not auctioned off but it can be. Normally they accept bids on it. The lender owns the vehicle and can sell it to anyone they wish, even the dealer you bought it from. You have no say in who they sell it to, and you are also going to be responsible for the difference in what it sells for and what you owe on it.

Who sells stamps?

Stamp Dealer Actually, I sell US postage stamps on eBay. I sell about 20 to 50 a month. That may seem low, but they sell. Before I sell a stamp I have to know exactly what I am selling, therefore there is a process of identification and grading. Then the stamp is posted on eBay. You do not have to be a dealer to sell stamps. Collectors buy, sell and trade stamps all of the time.
