All members should read this important warning. If you shop on websites other than eBay, you should exercise caution if someone emails you claiming to be an eBay representative! We are seeing an increase in reports of fake eBay Motors transactions that originate automotive websites other than eBay, such as Craigslist. Fraudsters are sending online shoppers fake email messages claiming to be from the eBay Trust and Safety Department, the eBay Motors Finance Center, an eBay Escrow...

At the bottom of every listing you will now find a link saying "Report this item". That takes you to a form you need to fill in to tell us why you are reporting. If you suspect a fraudulent listing, fill out the form as follows: Step 1) Select "Fraudulent listings..." Step 2) You suspect that a listing is fraudulent..." Step 3) Continue (you are not done yet) Step 4) Click "Email us" Step 5) Login (if you are not already) Step 6) Optional. Item number is prefilled. Add up to 9 more,...

I need a little help here and I sure would like to see everyone get involved. Ole Bob "O" is going threw some tough times with his health and being off work. I'd like to raise for money for him to help him and his wife along. Here's what I propose... I'd like to see everyone send me something. It don't have to be much, perhaps something that represents your favoroite hobby, your buisness, your home town, your state, really just about anything. But remember time is of the essence here....

Car is sold, and paid for. However, international paperwork has proved to be a problem and we need to refund the buyer. Buyer has paid thru paypal successfully. Because this is eBay motors, I am not clear on the proper process to work the refund and file for refund on insertion fees, etc. Would appreciate guidance on proper steps to take. Is there any portion of this sale where I'm expected to eat fees, etc? Thank lots!

Just going through my history looking at auctions that ended today. There is going to be alot of mad people unless ebay helps out. See cars and trucks sold for next to nothing. You can see on some of the auctions they had a bidding war going on and the auction's just stop hours before they where suppose too. The only thing that is searchable is the buy-it-now auctions. Seems all the store's with a buy-it-now are still up and running. This bites big time.

eBay’s highest priority is its members’ trading success. However, the eBay site occasionally experiences outages during which bidders cannot place bids or effectively locate items via our Title Search function. When outages occur that are at least one hour in duration, eBay offers this Outage Policy to compensate for member inconvenience. See examples for specifics types of outages and our response to each. Some Examples Title search outage of one or more hours In the event of a...

Let me tell you something friends, Selling cars on eBay these days sucks big time. I am a small car dealer in Ohio and have previously sold cars on eBay before. It's not like it used to be at all! These days, you are lucky to get any kind of decent bids on your vehicle. it's not worth the effort in my opinion. eBay buyers are really cheap these days or it may be just the economy. I've stopped selling cars on eBay all together now and have moved to the autotrader completely. It's way too...

The prospect of spending 15 years in jail was probably the last thing on a Missouri woman's mind nearly three years ago when she switched checkout lines at a Walmart store. Heather Ellis, inset, could face up to 15 years in prison after allegedly assaulting police officers who asked her to leave a Walmart store in Missouri when she cut a line to be with her cousin. (Courtesy Your Black World/Getty Images)But jail's a possibility for Heather Ellis, 24, who goes on trial today for charges...

For the second time in 3 days someone has "stolen" our truck and listed as their own. This is a scary scam that is taking place!! Today we noticed again and worked with e- bay security for over 2 hours on line. The associate was very incompetant and ended up ending our auction rather than stopping the fraudulant. The Fraudulant item is still listed.! It is our ad, our discription, our VIN everything!! The only thing they changed was we stated the tires would need to be changed soon...

I have been using Stop Sign for a few years, but I was told that some of the free anti-virus is just as good. My computer is getting pretty old.

Today is Saturday, Nov. 21 and search is officially broken. No browsing, no checking our store items, nothing is showing up. We can list and relist, but no one can see them! When we search for parts and accessories on ebay motors to buy, there are 0 available. Is everyone having this problem? Ebay says they are working on it.........waiting. Nothing on the announcements even though it has been going on all day.

Hi everybody, before I go any further I would like to introduce myself. My name is Bob and I work with the Support teams for eBay Motors. I have been with eBay since 1999 and with Motors for the last five years. I wanted to bring some news about the New Motors site and expand on Rob Chesney’s Announcement Board post today (at Link ). Since New Motors’ original debut in March 2007 there have been a host of changes, today the vast majority of eBay Motors buyers and sellers are using it....

So he went down there and bought a half a dozen or so fairly decent units.. I went with him and his son and a couple his sons friends, back down there to pick up these rides. We picked up the gate passes and headed to the...

My primary concern is this: I desire to use the funds from this Sale.........to augment the purchase of another item. I have entered into an agreement that binds me to perform within a prescribed amount of time. Am I correct to assume, that if I accept payment as described in the OP: that I will not be able to...

I have never used ebay motors before. I am looking at a 1999 snowmobile on another site. The seller suggested using ebay motors for the money and shipping transaction. First of all, is this safe to do? Second, how does the transaction work, does ebay hold my money until the sled arrives and I decide to keep it or not? And, if I decide to keep it THEN the seller receives my money. I am scared that I will never get the sled and he gets my money or I get the sled, am not satisfied, and am stuck...

Hi I have been an ebayer for a number of years now and have my first question. How do you stop the cheaters from bidding and screwing up your auction? My son has listed his Mustang twice now and each time it ended up being a fake buyer. I thought maybe I would try to list it for him but want to avoid this happening again. He sold it twice and each time these people would call him asking for his account number to deposit the money, of course he is smart enough to not give that info out, but...

2000 Ford Explorer It's a bank repo that came in without a key. Our locksmith came over and PROGRAMED up a key for it. It turns over and starts just fine, runs for about 2 seconds and then dies. Same thing, over and over again. Starts right up, sounds NORMAL, but then two seconds later dies. Give me some thoughts will ya!

Last weekend, my wife and I drove to New Orleans to visit the new WWII museum which just opened. It was a quick weekend trip arriving Saturday afternoon, and leaving Sunday afternoon to get back to Franklin, LA where she was working for the week. We only had 3 hours to spend at the museum, and I wish I had known that would not have been enough time to see everything. We spent a little over two hours viewing the various photos and exhibits, and than almost one hour watching a "4D" movie...

Driving to New Orleans and staying in the Franklin, La area for several days, I saw what at first looked to be lush, green corn fields for hundreds of miles. These fields were everywhere, and about 8-10 foot high. Well, it's Sugar Cane, and is the main product grown in this area of the state. In fact, most of the plantations here were sugar plantations, not cotton. Every little town seems to have its own refinery for making sugar from the cane, and trucks were all over the back...

Last week a 10-year-old Arkansas girl who refused to shower before bedtime and threw a fit was zapped with a police Taser after her mother gave the officer permission. The girl was then handcuffed and taken to a youth shelter, accused of disorderly conduct. She apparently was not injured. Today, the mayor of tiny Ozark called on the state police or the FBI to investigate whether the electronic weapon should have been used on someone so young, the Associated Press reports.

I have come to find these reports being provided by ebay are portraying all information obtained from the entire life history of a vehicle as being current information. I as well as several other dealers have found that the reports are saying that vehicles currently have loans or liens on them, when in fact the loans or liens are several years old and have long ago been dismissed. There are several other issues that I have found to be several years old and the reports have portrayed them as...

There all ( well, mostly ) ignition parts and all I do know is that they are pre 1974 . Anyone know of a website or whatever where I could find out the applications ? Even a site that shows cross-overs would help....... Tnks, DD

I was bidding against a person last few hours of an auction, and the price went over 200$ in no time. So the next day I get a second chance offer to buy it at my high bid of 199, is this a scam where someone runs the price up and then offers it to the next person at the inflated price? What happened to the original bidder??? It is an item that there just aren't going to be 2 of. Here is the auction: 400084810672 Thanks for any help..............................B
