Guest Clay008 Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Has anyone here ever purchased a car from a seller on ebay? I was just curious because I was on ebay earlier looking at cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJR Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Re: EBAY No! I sold a boat for a widow a few years ago. No problem at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbowhunter27 Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Re: EBAY I have sold cars and boats. I would suggest going and looking at the car before you bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Re: EBAY i've bought both cars and boats, both new and used. no problems for me. but, i have a firm rule to never buy from anyone without at least 50 buys/sales, or with over 3 negative comments, or less than 98% approval rating overall. (anyone with thousands of sales have more than 3 unhappy people, thus i then go by percentages of total sales.) but, as in all of life, use caution.

Exturkinator Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Re: EBAY I sold my truck on Ebay about 5 months ago, but I've never bought a vehicle on there. I think probably the only way I would is if I could see and drive the vehicle before bidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Re: EBAY Never. I would have to see it first but would consider it after that. I know a guy that buys classics and such a lot. He has bought several cars off of EBAY without any trouble that I know of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Clay008 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Re: EBAY I am surprised at how many people have bought and sold cars on ebay. I really didn't think it would be this popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Re: EBAY Yep, bought a truck on ebay, got a great deal too. I did however not pay anything until we got there and I checked out and test drove the truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoyt03 Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Re: EBAY I have heard both good and bad from diff people. Most people are honest, but you always have the few bad ones. Just use caution, and be smart about it and it will most likely work out ok for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
