This summer I purchased a cycle in Minnesota that was represented as accident free with an unbranded title. I checked VinCheck Pro that confirmed this fact. About a week later I received my transfer documents and went to my Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicle office to obtain my title. When they ran the VIN, the cycle came back salvaged! I then ran a CarFax which confirmed the cycle had been involved in a serious accident in another state a year before. Because I bought the cycle from an auto dealer and they had an obligation under Minnesota law to disclose, I was able to get my money back. Had I purchased it from a private party, I would have been stuck with a salvaged cycle. The moral of the story is to always check with CarFax before buying a vehicle and accept no substitute! You get what you pay for.
