Would you like to buy a car through eBay?
I am desperate to buy a ranger then I am looking for the ranger everywhere; eBay, auto trader, and craiglist. It is very hard to find good price with dealer and it is hard to find ranger on craiglist.
However, eBay shows me good price and looking but also it takes lots of risk and need to pay expensive shipping price.
I am a internation thus almost impossible to using a lone, even if I got loan % will be very high.
Here is my two questions.
1. Is it ok to buy on eBay?
2. How much I can discount the deal from dealer.
here is the link that I want.

Re: Would you like to buy a car through eBay?
honestly, buying from a used car dealer makes A LOT of extra troubles unless they are a good place. They will overcharge you since they have to make money as well.
Ebay shipping will be some extra money.
I suggest looking on edmunds or cars.com or craigslist for a ranger in your area that you can see and test drive from a private owner.

Re: Would you like to buy a car through eBay?
car max is a good source for used cars in general, don't know if they are for rangers specifically or not.
Also go to your library or grocery store they almost always have lots of free mailer things and a gold half of those are for used car dealerships.
My uncle sold cars on ebay for years, so it is very possible and easy to buy a car on ebay, however, make sure you do it from a good seller (one with a high ranking).
Also you can call the number they provide and try to negotiate the price of the vechile if it doesn't sell on ebay, that way you aren't paying for the % ebay gets on top of the profit margin for the seller.

I think you can find something more in expensive, and in good condition. You just have to keep looking. I searched everyday to find my 1997 Ranger on CL. 600.00, and runs good. Body in good shape too...
Keep looking on CL, check them out. Find one you like, but don't like the price?. Make an offer, The worst that can happen is they say no.

Re: Would you like to buy a car through eBay?
I would only buy it on eBay if it's close enough to go look at... don't trust the seller!!!!!!!!
Just be patient and keep an eye on Craigslist.
