Use of "off"

Hi, Could anyone tell me if this phrase is correct "I bought a car off Fred".

Should it read "I bought a car from Fred"?

Thanks

Steve

It's fine. It's a little colloquial, but it's okay.

well first can i say that you are stupid for even asking this question because the answer is very obvious. i mean where did you learn english? from a bunch of mexicans hiding under a blanket? all i can say is pickup your game or you will be left behind from this ever evolving race we call humans. eddie out homedizzle. may the force be with you.
