should i report car stolen??? UPDATE
ok guys, i need some opinions/advice... i sold a car to guy A, i know for 550 bucks, and he gave me 400 up front for it, and promised me the other 150 the next morning. At that time i would give him the title for the rest of the cash. well its been about a week of dicking around. Last night guy B came to my house saying that guy A sold it to him and he wanted the title, i talked to guy B and he is pretty cool about it. Turns out guy A spent all the money he got from guy B for the car on Oxycottons. But now guy A has basically disappeared and is nowhere to be found. sorry if that is confusing to understand...I really could give a ---- about the car or the 150 bucks, but i really dont want a dope-fiend driving around a car in my name... but should i report the car stolen? go try and find the car and steal the car back? any advice or opinions would be appreciated... I know i made a mistake by not taking all the money up front, lesson learned.... thanks guys

Re:should i report car stolen???
if the original buyer has the car, call the cops and report it stolen. You will probably get in trouble for this, cause you willingly gave him the keys and I'm pretty sure you didn't have the 150 payment agreement on paper.
Either way call the cops.
Either way call the cops.

original buyer has it, i know its stupid of me to do, but he was a friend and i trusted him... big mistake i know... the guy wanting the title only put a down payment down, so no proof of sale im guessing....

Re:should i report car stolen???
where do you live? im in jersey and a similar thing just happened to a friend of mine. He sold the car to a druggy and didnt get all the cash up front, then the kid couldnt come up with it. My friend finds out the kid owes money to some people and offers to give the kid like half of what he paid for the car to get it back, but when he meets up with him he finds three guys who rob the cash from him at gunpoint

guy he sold it to is fucked. Tell the second buyer to give you 150, and he could have the title. That way he can mess with the cops. He could say, I bought the car, I have the title, and he never delivered the car.
Either way SEND IN A RELEASE OF LIABILITY FORM FOR THAT DAMN CAR!!! You don't want that ---- hitched on you still.
