Its always a roll of the dice if you buy sight unseen. If you go into it knowing the risks you're usually fine, unless the seller is a real jerk. I had one one time, the seller has since switched his name 3-4 times and is banned from here and most other forums, I told him I didn't need to import rust to NY, we have plenty. He said there was some bubbling on the doors but nothing serious. The car arrived and the pedals were hanging in mid air. I called the seller and he said, "Look, the car photograph's really well, just throw it on ebay, you'll do fine."
My response was, "So you want me to do to the next guy, what you did to me?"
He said, "Look bro, I'm giving you an out here."
I didn't take his advice, I resold the car at a loss, but like I said he has since changed names multiple times and is banned from most platforms, a real piece of work.
