Actually, there is an even better eBay strategy. Watch for auctions
that close where the reserve was not met. Contact the seller and find
out what he would take for the car (so he won't have to go through the
agony of relisting and waiting). Go out and see the car in person and
if you like it make the deal. If there are some undisclosed problems
reduce the offering price.


Once you bid on a car and win it at auction, you are pretty much
obligated to buy it regardless of the *actual* condition.
