Well, I made my first phone call to an ebay auto seller. Let's just say, it wasn't pleasant. I asked him about a 2001 taurus he has on ebay with only 2hrs left on the bidding. He acknowledges it and says yeah, it's a great car, blah blah blah. I said ok and ask if he could accept the check I have from my bank. He says, sure we'll work something out. I asked a few more questions about the vehicle like the fact the bidding was at 9,000 and the buy it now price is 13,288.00. Do they sell for the highest bid or what. He then says, well obviously were not going to sell that vehicle for that cheap so I ask about the buy it now price. Then all of a sudden, he says my car doesn't have a buy it now price and starts talking about he has a porsche 911 on ebay right now. He just fell on his head. All of a sudden the car he has on ebay isn't his I mean whats up with that. He asks, Are you sure its mine and I tell him, well your number is listed for the vehicle. I mean what the . I hung up because I got tired of his bull... Anyway, I think I'll give up on ebay. Sometimes all it takes is one person one time. The funniest part about all of this is the rating he had -68 excellent-0 fair-0 poor. Who's buying cars from this guy, his employees? What an idiot. I'll look for a vehicle elsewhere. Thanks for your help everyone. I'm sure there is good folks out there but this is just too big an investment to take a chance in dealing with an idiot.

Thanks again everyone, James
