Hello Folks,
I just got off the phone with the eBay seller on who's Suburban I had bid
and won a few days ago.
First off, a lady insisted on talking to me instead of her brother (the eBay
seller who was not available as she told me!).
I know my paranoia could be playing somewhat of a role here
You might want to post us a link to the auction listing so we can see
what the terms of the sale are before we can form an opinion on whats
going on.
But basicaly if you won the auction, you agreed to the terms of the sale
posted on that auction. Trying to change any of that now is like
OK, where are you, and where is the truck? I can see problems on both
sides of the transaction here. Sounds like the sellers are not being
very helpful and maybe not very honest. But you did make a couple of
mistakes yourself. First off, never bid on a car unless you agree to
all the terms

Run away!
The POS SDL was an eBay car and a total rip off. It was in TX and I
was 2300 miles away. Used Paypal and when the deal went bad, was out
the cash. I should have had round trip tix, and cash. When it turned
into a really bad idea, I could have just walked away instead
Ed,
I would check any car out you are interested in, and may even be
willing to deliver it to you. May take about four days of HARD driving
to get there, but it would be an adventure

I planned on doing this with my 300 in Raleigh, but timing didn't work out
for a local friend. I tried to find a local laywer to do this, but none that
I spoke to wanted to do it. Dunno

I agree with others who have voiced their opinion. I have yet to buy a

Yup, I bought my Vanagon on ebay, and sent a $400 down payment since I
couldn't make it down there for another month. I flew down to LA with
the remainder and drove it back without a hitch...still haven't had a
hitch. It was a great experience and a wonderful seller, with no
regrets. YMMV

i am finally the proud former owner of a disaster ebay car (got my wallet
cleaned and rinsed)...if i had seen the car prior to paying in full, i would
have returned without it...by the time the car was shipped, the 30 day bummer
coverage offered by ebay had come and gone...and, by the way,
When I bought my SDL it was on ebay, made a deal outside of ebay and
seller ended auction. It was in colorado and I sent postal money orders
to the seller, he overnighted the title, and I had the car shipped back.
Yes, very risky but it worked out just fine.

Thank you Kaleb and all the others who replied to this question, yet nobody
mentioned anything about escrow service!
Is it because nobody tried it yet or because it does not offer the
protection claimed!?
Thank you all,

Hello Listers,

I am used to buying things on eBay but never a vehicle which is exactly what
just did when I bought a truck on eBay and it sits over a thousand miles
away from me.
Hence my question, how should
