That IS excellent advice, when I bought a used bike (cheap commuter but
still...) I was very concerned about the legality of the bikes I looked 
at.  I even questioned the seller outright as to the source, and made 
sure I had a home address for him.  Definitely having credentials, such 
as the serial number to check up on, would favor that seller and land 
him a better price.
