I agree with others who have voiced their opinion. I have yet to buy a car via eBay, personally. But I've bid on a few. I made sure all of them were close enough to see without too much trouble. You'll see me gripe quite a bit about Seattle being 2,274 miles away and across a desert from Indianapolis. Lot's of good stuff from out there, it seems. Either way, I would never buy anything that requires government intervention (ie title) and licensing via Money Order and UPS. Even if you don't drive it back and you do contract a hauler to bring it to you, you should go to the car, check it before you pay, and take the title directly from Previous Owner. If it isn't what was represented in the ad, I wouldn't pay for it either. Sure it will really annoy the PO, but if the thing is sitting on blocks and has rust in every panel of sheet metal and the pics on the website are from 5 years ago when it was still running, better to find out before you have the title signed over to you. -- Knowledge is power...
