Reputable dealers and Ebay are 2 things that will not get together ever.

 

I have to completely disagree. You just have to look at the small independent garages, who do professional videos, lots of photos and comprehensive descriptions to see the honest sellers - feedback, websites, reputations proceed many of these sellers who have been there for years.

 

ebay has shite sellers, just like every other internet sales medium. The OP's seller clearly isn't quality, but to quote all ebay sellers as rogues is just incorrect.

so you think the way the seller has behaved is entirely acceptable then?

 

Would I buy a car remotely from him, absolutely not. His advert invites people to view first to see the car, to see how it condition is above average for the year.  I also don't for one moment believe the OP's post.

Of course there must be a couple of good ebay car sellers, and surely they don't rely on ebay to make a crust.

Of course, Ebay is just a cheap advertising medium. If you want rogue sellers try Facebook, it’s full of them, Ebay is prestige compared to FB.

Of course you are, would you say it was reasonable or fair for the seller in this case to keep both the car and the majority of the buyer's money as well?

[king12345]

It's surely fair and proportionate in the eyes of the seller...

That wasn't what i asked.
