We recently purchased a used car from Piehl Motors of Princeton Il... We couldn't be happier. Great Deal, Great Price! They were so great with the custom financing we needed to make our deal work... I highly recommend Piehl Motors of Princeton!

“EBay Motors has outlived its usefulness”

J W.
12/11/21

EBay Motors is overpriced, useless, and seems to attract bottom feeders, jokers and kids masquerading as buyers. The people who work there are not helpful unless you call by phone and insist on your point of you've had problems. Those people are not in customer satisfaction, just Ebay's satisfaction enforcing their arcane rules and regs. The site itself is user unfriendly and some directions dont work because the descriptions don't relate to the site. Basically they should fire everybody and start over.

Absolutely awful wouldn't do business with them if my life depended on it. Worse experience ever losing $800 lemme try to tell you guys. And they claim money back guarantee lol if you buy the gift cards they are stealing your money and since you bought the cards the bank can't take responsibility just Ebay which doesn't respond to your emails

Verified purchase

Pay 79 to list your vehicle, sell it using the buy it now, a bogus bidder or Could even be ebay, comes in and buys it now with no intention of purchasing, guess what, I have to pay again if I want to list it again on their bogus site. Imagine this hundreds of listings for $79 a pop Seller has a Buy It Now... a fake bidder comes in and buys it... now that removes it off Ebay listing reducing competition and eBay gets the $79 the seller gets nothing, but a bogus bidder, and ebay motors will do nothing for you. Don't bother with their shananagins...

Tip for consumers:
Don't list on ebay motors

There's a scam for a 2000 Itasca SunCruiser RV on RV Trader. Looked good so I contacted the seller. Someone got back immediately saying it was their aunt and gave me their email. Emailed some person named Leslie Atkins, a scammer (probably not even real) saying her husband passed away, blah blah blah. Just like some other reviewers here said the same. Told me she "relocated" for her new job far away in MT and wouldn't be there in person - ebay motors would handle everything. I instantly new something didn't sound right. Listen y'all use your intuition don't ignore it. If something sounds too good to be true it likely is. Don't rush to buy and regret it later! Take your time.

Tip for consumers:
Don't buy from them.

My order did not show up when it was supposed to.
I try to cancel the order because it was late.
Customer service (LOL) refused to help me till my order was here.
Worst experience ever. This is a company that in it just for the money
And does not care about the customers.

At first I thought I was saving money. Bought a set of denso tt iridium spark plugs. They arrived in a perfect replica box as the denso tt plugs from a part store. I only got 5k miles outta these plugs. When I went to autozone to buy a new set I compared the two plugs and there is a huge difference in the electrode of the real part. Second time I bought a so called oem oil filter. The box was original equipment but inside was an amazon filter. Not toyota. The oem box had a sticker on it saying " inspected". I looked up the part numbers on the filter and sure enough not oem. Not saying there is anything wrong with amazon parts but I always use original. When I contacted the seller he swears it is original.

Tip for consumers:
If it sounds to good to be true it probably is

Sold one of our big trucks through them( EBAY MOTORS) I thought i will give it one try. Wow the guy never paid and eBay pulled the money out of our account. I called our attorney and told them i would sue so finally two weeks later a letter saying we are not responsible for our buyers and the money was returned. IT IS the second auction house in the world that should be closed forever. I knew the real owners personally that eBay built eBay motors off their clients', and paid them in the millions and just destroyed it in a matter of 2 years. That company was around for 30 plus years. Thank you silicon valley for another auction website thats not really an auction.
Here the best part A listing said no Minimums and the starting price is $ bla bla thats is a reserve and a minimum. CLUELESS.

Basically was told, if the car is over 10 years old, there is no dispute forum and your out of luck,, seller said the car just needs a tune up and bleed the brakes and drive it,. But i received a car with a bad engine and bad transmission and bad steering and bad brakes. I can send you a link to the original ad and a video of what i received, even after specifically asking the seller about those issues, i was told it was all fine and i would be really happy with the car. What surprised me is that ebay basically allows them to keep on screwing people and the same guy is listing more crap on there, should i just list it as a great running driving car too and someone buys it just ignore all the emails from ebay and the buyer and sit there and count the cash. Looks like that's the way it is these days. Guess i'll just use ebay to screw someone too

Tip for consumers:
don't buy any car over 10 years old that is out of the area for you to go look at in person

I bought a 68 Mustang GT500 on eBay. The ad and video you see here is almost a mirror image for all cars from this Seller, that sucked me in on my car. What you see is NOT what I received based on the eBay listing, the video, AND a personal conversation with "Eddie" (his email says Braulio Cotera is his name). The car arrived with huge 8" rat holes in the headliner, the clutch gone, power steering box shot, and a massive rear seal oil leak all over my new driveway. Had to have it towed for repairs after only driving it 3 miles. Then the battery died and when removed the entire battery inner wall that supports the battery shelf was rusted out, gone! Do NOT trust this man's word. He assured me the car was amazing, no issues. Then he scammed me on eBay by taking my payment via a bank wire and then opening a case for Non-Pymt because I didn't pay via eBay's internal process (which BTW they say to follow the Seller's requirements). I contacted him twice and he let the Non-Pymt. Case expire as non-paid, and then appealed to have my negative feedback removed because eBay showed the transaction cancelled, even though I already had the car! This is how he maintains 100% positive feedback! I have reported this to eBay Security and Safety Dept. but they claim there's nothing they can do, won't restore my negative feedback!, and had me file an Internet Fraud Case. He is a liar and a cheat, and I have no recourse with eBay because I didn't hire a mechanic to have the car inspected first, just went on his ad and his word and had the car shipped to me in GA. EBay's Vehicle Protection Plan does not cover mechanical issues! Going to cost me at least $5K to get the car running as shown in this video. And this is just our own observations prior to having a professional go through the car. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS MAN. His name is Braulio Cotero (Eddie and Monica) and company is AJ Auto Sales Inc., which BTW, I cannot find online. The car was picked up at a residence. BUYER BEWARE!
