what do you guys think about buying a G or a car in general through Ebay?? I have heard a couple of people buying cars and not really having any problems.... plus if you get one with a good balance on the warranty you should be good if any mishaps occur. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK??? Thanks.

 

screw ebay just buy mine.

 

haha...what do you got man.... too bad i wasnt still in Cali... i am from San Berdo....but i stay out in Mississippi now..... it is hard to find G'z around here....

 

just like what it says on my sig 04 CB coupe. damn man you left Cali for Ole Miss talk about culture shock.

 

I bought mine on ebay about six months back. Got an '03 DG 6mt with 5,057 miles on it. Premium package and aero kit, no nav. Paid 27k for it. have had no problems at all.
Definitely run a carfax. Definitely check the guys feedback. If there are any negatives you might even use the ebay mail system and check with the people that left negative feedback and ask for more info.
Personally I don't like to give a deposit on a car I haven't seen, so I try to make sure that I can take off the very next day and go buy the car. I have all my financing/money worked out before I ever even bid, and then I go and just pay for the whole thing at once rather than do a deposit. Then at least if the car isn't what was advertised you aren't out of a deposit if he doesn't give it back. I have had great experiences on ebay and would do it again in a second.

 

Thanks for the input....the only thing that would screw me is that all the G's that i find are all out of state... here in mississippi the closet ones i am finding are in Texas and stuff... so i would have to get it shipped.... shipping is only like an extra 500$.... but as far as the deposit goes i wouldnt mind putting it down on a G because i am pretty sure if they are an 03 or 04 it should be in pretty good shape..... thanks though for the advice.... i will defintly get all my financing done before hand...... thanks again!!!

 

I feel if you have to get it shipped DON"T do it. Not that you can't trust people but why not just keep waiting your time to find something local enough that you can go get. Not everyone is a scamer, but we all know there are plenty of people out there. Do you really want to pay 30k and recieve something you're not happy with. Do you think you can just put the car back on the truck and get a no problem return/refund policy?

 

i understand what you are saying and i guess i will just have to make that decision when the time presents itself.... trust me if i could get one locally i would but the few that they have around here are either Sedans or they are too pricey... so i will just have to see... thanks for the feedback!

 

I have purchased 2 cars on eBay with great success and have also sold 3 cars on eBay (including the G). It's becoming a standard for selling used cars because the exposure you get is unparalleled. For $45 I advertised my car to literally millions of people. It really can't be beat. Just know the car you're looking for and don't be afraid to ask questions and request more pics.
