I bought mine on Ebay, but it was just over an hour away in Sacramento. I drove up to see it before bidding. We ended up making a deal on the spot. I left a deposit, we agreed on a price. I clicked "buy it now" to end the auction, but he and I had a written agreement for the price we had negotiated (which was lower than the buy it now price). He wanted to go ahead and complete the sale on E-bay, since he thought it would be good for his selling history.

It was the first item I've ever bought from Ebay.

I didn't pay anyone else to do a PPI, since I own a small motorcycle shop, wrench for a living, and knew what to look for. That, and the owner was a really nice guy and had under-sold the car on his e-bay listing. The miles were slightly lower than what he said, the condition was much nicer than it appeared in the photos.

I've been extremely happy with the car.
