What should and does happen are two different
things. The reputation lists aren't a regulated entity. The FBI is.

Maybe a silly idea, but shouldn't the sale of a

trigger a removal of that block from all

doesn't start tailing me, because the car was
once used for less than legal purposes. New owner, clean slate.

I am interested in what broker you used as
well. We have used a few that do a little due
diligence on their end, but we still do our
own. We have seen an auction pulled due to the
space having a bad reputation, but we were the
ones who had to step up and say something.
