Default Re: Needing reassurance on purchase

Didn't you make the seller an offer to sell it to you off of Ebay? What was his reserve price? It seems like if you made an offer then you are the one who assigned the value to the car, not him. Also, if you bought it outside of EBay it is likely you did so to avoid the car going to a higher price than you paid. Is this correct? While this method may save you some money, it also leaves you vulnurable. I have learned a lesson from this one. It seems that this seller went further than most would to overstate some of the negatives about the car. I am not sure at this point whether it was to be ethical or protect his butt. Any input guys? Was the buyer ignorant about certain issues or dumb like a fox?
