Are you relying on the honesty of the Seller? How do you determine when you need, or don't need an inspection prior to bidding on Ebay? Or is this just part of the risk taking process of "buyer beware"?

I actually talked to the owner....he was willing to pull it for me at a set price. The set price was less than what he sold it for on EBAY so I'm glad i told him to keep the auction going. I didn't have my financing in line yet, but asked him about having the car inspected. He had no problems with it. But the correct answer was given....buy one from Cobra Country and not Ebay. Although I have found guys willing to work with you outside the bidding process. The chips just have to fall in place.
