DON'T DO IT!

In Reply to: I need a car in the worst way - Has anyone bought car on Ebay?

My friend's husband bought a car on ebay and it was a nightmare. The photo on EBay that they liked was not a photo of the busted up piece of crap that they got and it sat in front of their house on blocks for months before the gangsta they bought it from picked it up. Actually it was pieced up by some credit company if I remember correctly, but I do remember it took months to clear up the mess and they're still down a couple thousand bucks just to wash their hands of the problem.
