Quote: "Only a total idiot would buy a car sight unseen on Ebay"
In that case Doug, you can call me "a total idiot". I just bought a solid,
complete, rust-free, California 1970 GT6+ on eBay. Sight unseen, except for
the pictures and questions I asked the seller before the bidding. The engine
turns, the brakes work, the wheels roll. I paid $380. What a chump.
Is it just me, or has this list taken a really nasty turn for the worst,
lately? What's with all the flaming?
Take care,

Only a total idiot would buy a car sight unseen on Ebay.
Only a total idiot would list a car on Ebay and then get
all excited when a bidder who never saw the car bids really high for it.
