Ebay boats and cars
I buy and sell on there regularly.
Some good deals and some GREAT deals. Only way I would buy a large ticket item is if it were for sale locally. I bought a 1992 Keywest 2020 bluewater a few years ago like thing. The boat didnt meet reserve price, so I contacted the selled and went over to take a look. Engine was rebuilt but the deck has a few soft spots from water getting into the fiberglass from screws that held in the seats. Nothing else really wrong. I paid the girl who owned the boat 5700 (a few years ago) added a radio, fishfinder, bilge pump and sold the boat earlier this year for 6000.00 I got three great years out of that boat. Lots of fishing and happy days. Did all the maintence myself and took care of it. I really cant complain. Moral of the story??? If it doesnt meet its reserve, contact the seller! They are inclined to move the boat and save the ebay fees. You can get some real saving off of that! |
