Has anyone ever bought a vehicle on eBay?

i packed a flashlight and a tool kit and spare parts (hoses, belts, points and plugs, duct tape) in my luggage (pre 911 time), made sure my AAA card was current, had an open ended return plane ticket just in case the car didn't look as promised, was wary the whole drive home, but the mustang drove like the thorughbred it is. (i did get tired of the horn honking and peeps waving and changing lanes to check the car out, it was a long drive back home.)

kinda felt sorry for the seller; his wife told him either the mustang was leaving or he was. he had spent a LOT of time and money and effort (TOO much, from his wife's point of view) on the car in the 4 years he oned it ; he took a financial beating on it.

that was 19 months ago, am still enjoying my ebay purchase.

That was a true story. My friend had to pay a lawyer $3000 to represent him in court in NYC to get this dismissed, so his profit was gone.

Bentley owners are famous for immaculate care of their cars so I feel perfectly comfortable when I augment my Bentley collection with pieces from ebay. Plus I dried up the local supply of them.

I just purchased an H2 on Ebay last week, it got delivered today and then I sold it for 15K profit.

Is that what you'd like to believe??? I bet many of the autos sold on there have been in accidents... refurbs... probably some bad mojo... Easy way to hide the flaws... sell it on Ebay!

I saw a 70 LeSabre convertible for 4800 once. Beautiful condition. Beautiful car. If I had that much money to throw away, it'd be in my driveway right now.

only problem is you can't test the cars out. Try autotrader.com, usually there is a dealership within 150 miles that sells way below blue book value. I bought a truck for 60% of blue book at a dealership 60 miles away that i found on autotrader.
