Whilst historically I have done Ok out of Ebay, for the last five or so years the Chav count (trailer trash to our US audience), has got way out of hand.

It only worked when it was the domain of nerds who obsessed with becoming a power w*nker, sorry I mean seller, but at least they were largely honest.

Now eBay is almost like doing a car boot over email- I did a car boot once out of curiosity and never again. It's either two hours of questions from people (normally with beards) with never any intention of buying or an Elizabeth Duke'd sixteen year old wanting to buy £20 quid worth of gear for a moody pound coin.

For cars I'd use autotrader and anything else, I'd rather take pleasure in burning than ebaying it. hiha

What i like about eBay is the amount you can write - my listing took a couple hours to do but it avoided most stupid questions. Well if you don't count the ars*hole who offered to SELL me his Toyota 4runner that is... Some people... :rolleyes:

Cheers,
David.
Did the 4runner come with a 'dag' or a bit of tarmac ? hiha

Well the boots are big enough for dead bodies..
Indeed,

I put my girlfriend in the boot once to try and locate a rear squeaking sound.

What she didn't know was that I was going to close the boot and drive round the block...Fast.

She didn't speak to me for a week, but it did save a load of cash if BMW had investigated. Win:Win then.

:hihi:

Sorry old bean....

It is nice to see that the prices are coming back up!! Prob cos the E60 M5 is out now.. and people relise how good the E34 is!!
Sorry for the leftism Rob.

You're right, with the E60, I think you have people who have remembered how good they were before they became BIGBROTHER, 11 million setting, SAFETYBOY cars. I drove a F355 two weeks back with the flappy paddles. Overall the experience was so dull it was beyond believe and that was on a track!

The hate of driver interferance combined with the rareness of the E34 will certainly shore-up prices.


Best
