Just bid as normal on the vehicle. Don't stray from Ebay's safety measures and pay with a debit/ credit card to be safe when the deal goes south.


Walk away.

I got a good deal on a Mercedes 180D sedan from a guy who was leaving the country for several years service with the govt but to be on the safe side, I had a friend look at it first. It was exactly what he said, so the cash exchanged hands, the car got dollied to storage and I got the title.

BUT-- you have to do some checking and have a plan that protects you as well.
