What is the procedure when buying a car? Do I have to pay the seller before he ships the car?

I want to buy a car and I'd like to know if I have to pay for it before the seller ships it to me and if so, what happens if I don't want to keep it?

Taking a big risk buying a vehicle on spec. You can't take delivery without paying and if it arrives not as described, seller is not going to take it back and you are then in a battle over your money which may never be recovered.
