I'd say this comparison is not correct.
Let's say, he came to a second hand car shop where they sold him a car. Why would he doubt in a reputable shop? Some time later he comes out in the morning and sees his car is missing, he calls the shop and they say "we took it back as it was a stolen car". Surprise!
So, as for me I see
the main problem in the security of the "reputable" shop. They did not take the trouble to check where the stolen car had come from, sold it and then took it back with no refund.
Who is responsible in this case? The buyer? Or the shop whose job is to double check everything that gets in?
