In June of last year we bought a 1975 914 off e-bay and had it shipped here. Asked alot of questions ect. got ripped off good. Learned a valuable lesson. In July we bought another off e-bay out of Canada, paid the guy and drove it home. It is a great car. The exta is in the garage and needs to go. What is the best way to get as much of my $2500 (cost + shipping) back. Don't really have the time or know how to part it out. Have the classified ads done well? Should I try e-bay? What has worked for you? Thanks for your help. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I made a bad Ebay buy last summer. My fault. Should have asked more questions (dealer,don't know if I would have gotten honest answers). Re-sold on Ebay and lost less $ than I expected. I listed the problems (rust) with the car (Porsche but not 914) in the auction listing. Tried to be as honest about the car as I could when people emailed questions. Got $1500 over my reserve. Auction winner drove with a trailer from N. California to Portland and picked up the car. He found no surprises and completed the transaction.
