^^of course, what's $25 if you get a good history of an item not less than $10k? buying a car is one of the more important decisions you'll make in your life so i'd rather pony up 25-50 bucks and be sleeping peacefully at night without worrying that i've bought a stolen, damaged or flooded car. most dealers furnish you with a carfax copy (at a lower cost/sometimes free) if you ask them one when you drop by to visit.
