I hate ebay. I refuse to buy cars on eBay. It's such 'dangle berries'. I really do hate egay. And Paypal. And in case I forgot to mention I rather hate gaybay.run by muppets with muppet rules and BS support. What a pile of sh***!
I have just made another successful purchase on ebay, make up for swmbo...
and am currently winning for an old bmx bike for Miss Vamps... 
I have bought and sold a very wide variety of items on ebay, over the last 5 years or so, including buying and selling cars and can say I have never,and I mean never had a problem with buyers or sellers......

It doesn't work for me. Technically or from a sense point of view. We had several transactions go wrong for minor items. Re cars viewing is just daft surely.? Buy then view? I don't think so. View, in the flesh, then buy.....?
I've got to be honest, I've bought 3/4 cars "Blind" on eBay now... I only bid up to what I'm willing to pay, having factored in having to do some remedial work

My saloon came through eBay (blind) and the Estate did, to a certain extent, too

Although the estate was also on Auto Trader and I did view it before striking the deal

Still found things I missed though
