Would you ever buy a car off eBay?
The question of would I ever buy a car off eBay was asked of me the other day, and for once, I was actually stuck for an answer. At first I was in the 'Nahhh' corner, but the more I thought about it the more I started to warm to the idea. In many ways it's no different than finding a car in the trading post or something similar. I guess what puts me off, is the amount of money involved. For me, buying a car is a high involvement purchase, and going through that process on line still does not quite sit right with me.

Be nice. Keep it clean. Stay on topic. No spam.
I’ve purchased a car from the net, but I wouldn’t buy it from Ebay. All I really did was find dealers near me, and the site hooked me up w/ dealers w/in 500 miles or so. They showed up w/ the car, I checked it over, and signed a check.
Worked very well for me b/c after 3 weeks of haggling b/n dealers, I had negotiated ~ 20% off the original asking price.
Scary thing is that used hybrids are now selling on eBay like hotcakes, and some above their purchase price from a year ago.
Well to be honest I wont do that
