Ruling: 15% without payment received: Fundamentally, there is no difference whose car def repairs, as the point of payment is not profit sharing, but the amount of use of pl’s premises. The 15% rate is just a convenient "meter" of usage. On the other hand, def is allowed to give customers discounts, and pl is to receive 15% of the paid price. Regarding cases in which def doesn’t charge at all (e.g., for a relative), the majority of dayanim agreed on a compromise of giving pl as if the price had been half of the normal charge. When def did not receive anything because he did not succeed in extracting payment, he is exempt from paying pl.
Nullifying the sale of the car: First, we point out that a sale of a car can be legally binding without changing title, as opposed to the situation regarding the sale of a home. The title change was instituted as a declarative step, to prevent the buyer from running up liabilities on the sale (as happened here). As a movable object, the kinyan on a car is not by giving money but by meshicha, moving it in the capacity of the new owner. This occurs when one drives the car, at least when done in side streets, as classical Halacha subscribes regarding animals (see Shulchan Aruch, Choshen Mishpat 197:3).
Although def claims that the sale in this case was conditional, since pl disputes this, it is an example of a definite sale with a possible condition, and the burden of proof is on the one who wants to enforce the possible condition (ed. note- as we saw last installment). Because pl was being hurt financially by def’s use of the car in his name and def did not act as requested, pl was permitted to prevent its use, and def will need to pay the fees of reinstating the car to legal use.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.
Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.
