Has anyone actually bought a 914 off of eBay for a decent price?

I looked at this car in person before it was listed on eVilbay:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...3&category=2030

The guy was asking $3100 (Canadian). It didn't run (likely bad fuel injection problems), there were rust holes in all the usual places, and many other problems.

It just sold for $4700 (Canadian), probably to somebody who didn't get a chance to look at the car.

Is it even worth shopping cars on eBay?
