It's a tale of buyer beware and an Edmonton man is warning people to read the fine print after he was prevented from selling his SUV due to a $1 lien imposed by the dealership.

According to Harvey Minhas, he purchased the SUV in October but after getting a new job in Toronto that would make driving such a large vehicle a bit difficult, he decided to sell.

A prospective buyer returned and informed him there was a lien on the vehicle. Minhas says he had already paid off the SUV, but it turned out the lien was imposed by the dealer for $1, meaning he couldn't sell.

As Chris Chacon reports, some in the industry say a move like that is aimed at cracking down on cross-border vehicle sales.
