Personally, I would read the rules and go from there. Ads like that do spoil the site somewhat.

Yeah, and they could make the same and charge less to proper users if people didn't do this.

Up to you, but personally these annoy me when I see them. It'll probably sell the car though, and ebay aren't my favorite company at the moment, so yeah, your call.

Normal practice is to say if you bid you win a wheel nut or something. Then talk all about the car and leave a phone number.

Just put it at a fixed price, buy it now, but ask people to come view before they press buy it now. Then if they want it, agree to do it out of ebay to avoid fees.

good arrows! not doing the wheel bolt thing, just the view first.

My girlfriends name is on the v5, does that mean she will have to be present to sign it over? as i'm selling it on her behalf.
