    JUST IN TIME TO PARK UNDER THE TREE FOR CHRISTMAS!!!   We used to sell a LOT of Saabs here.  Maybe one or two a month.  Now we’re lucky to sell 1-2 a year.  But we got super lucky here!  This auction is for a 1994 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible!  This Turbo Convertible being offered here:   WAS THE FINAL YEAR FOR THIS MODEL IN THE BEST LOOKING COLOR AND TRIM! IS A HANDS DOWN BEAUTIFUL CAR IN BLACK WITH THE SPG RIMS! RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT! WITH A NICE WORKING POWER TOP! AND COMES WITH OUR 100% MONEY BACK WARRANTY!   And, to make this auction interesting, we are offering this rare sport convertible here in a NO RESERVE AUCTION!!!     NO RESERVE means just that.   We pride ourselves in honest auctions and ALWAYS start our bidding at ONE PENNY!  Classic Saab 900 Convertibles in this kind of condition aren’t easy to find and interest an awful lot of people!  This 900 is one of those rare auctions that don’t have an untouchable reserve or stratospheric buy it now price.  Any bid you make might be the last one.  So please be extra serious when bidding.  You bidders are going to set the price in this auction, not us! And, to make this a very safe bet for you, you have 50 miles to drive it.  If you can honestly show it has been misrepresented, we’ll happily refund you your money! Recently we’ve had to start requiring that our bidders have a Paypal account to bid.  We’ve regretfully had to do this because of the sharp increase in deadbeat, non-paying, bidders since eBay has changed their feedback policy.  We still ask that zero feedback bidders and bidders with no recent account activity contact us before bidding.  If you don’t have a Paypal account and wish to bid, please contact us so we can add you to our bidding exemption list. PLEASE take the time to read the whole description and the Terms section after it. 95% of the questions we get on our vehicles can be answered by simply reading the description and studying the pictures we include. We get very worried when we see that bidders aren’t reading things because it makes us wonder what other important details they've missed. VERY few dealers take the time we do to give complete descriptions simply so that our bidders can make educated decisions and not be surprised when they pick up their new cars.  Work with us here and at least read what we’ve written.  META TAG     We used to be eBay’s number one seller of Saab 900’s and might still be for all we know.  The older Saabs are getting very hard to find and we’re lucky to find 1 or 2 a year now.  We’ve been doing this here for many years and have a lot of very happy buyers!  We’re one of the very rare dealers here that sells everything we have in true no reserve auctions.  Our buyers are the ones that set the prices, not us!       We love the older Saab Turbo convertibles.  Like most people, we agree that these ’94 Saab 900’s were the last nice Saabs in the pre-GM era.  In our opinion, they were just about the nicest, classiest looking, sports convertible in the market from the mid-80’s to mid-90’s.  They looked great with the top down.  They were great driving and comfortable to sit in.  And, like most Saab 900’s, they exuded that little extra something that made them just a little bit different from everything else on the market.  Regretfully they were also very expensive when new.  Many older Saabs we’ve sold here over the years are shipped overseas because there were very few of the turbo convertibles sold in Europe new because of the high purchase prices back then.  Dutch and German buyers go crazy for this model Saab. As you have already seen this is one very nice Saab considering it is almost 21 years old! 1994 was the LAST year for this classic body style and the turbo cars were the most desirable ones to have.  The trouble these days is that these cars are VERY hard to find and owners never want to let the nice ones like this go. This Saab is the Holy Grail find for the right buyer! It has been a couple years since we’ve listed one as nice as this. We’re sure we will receive letters from people wishing this car had the five speed transmission versus the automatic.  Our opinion is that, with the convertible, the automatic is a much better gearbox to have because it allows you to slow down a bit and enjoy the world seen from a convertible.  Additionally the automatic transmission is bulletproof.  Most of the manual transmission Saab 900’s we see these days are all ready for replacement due to synchromesh issues between second and third gear.  The automatic tranny is a much safer bet to own as these cars get older!  The last comment we’ll make about the manual trans is that, on the turbo Saab convertibles, the body of the car was prone to twisting in corners under full turbo boost.  Without a hard top roof, turbo convertibles just can’t be considered serious sports cars. Our two cents. One clarification here.  Saab did make a commemorative last year model turbo convertible.  These models were also black with the tan leather and same wheels.  Ebay’s computer defaulted this car into this category automatically based on the VIN #.  HOWEVER!!  The commemorative editions, while identical looking to this car, ONLY came with manual transmissions. So, no matter what anyone tells you, this car is not a special edition because of the automatic transmission.  As long as it looks the same we’re fine with that!     The exterior of this ’94 Saab is as nice as you’re ever going to find unrestored these days.  It is pretty obvious to us that this car lived in a garage.  The black paint looks very nice overall even though it has the standard little nicks and scratches anyone would expect to find on a 22 year old car with 143K miles on it.  The car is rust free free except for a patch we found bubbling along the front half of the right rear fender lip.  The only other damage we found was a small crumpled area on the left rear corner of the hood just in front of the door and below the windshield pillar.  All the trim is there and this is a very RARE Saab in that it still has its driving lamps with intact lenses.  It’s been years since we’ve had a Saab with this accessory intact AND working. Black turbo Saab convertibles with the SPG alloy rims were the sharpest looking ones made and came across as a luxury sport convertible with attitude!  You will NOT see cars like this ever again new.     Being as this is a convertible we have to care about the condition of the top.  The canvas is in nice overall condition and seals perfectly.  We noticed only a few small slits in the usual rear quarters.  The inner headliner is looking great!  The power actuation works smoothly and quickly even when it is very cold outside!  This Saab has been VERY well taken care of in its life! The last photo is an interesting one.  In the trunk of this Saab were THREE complete tonneau covers for the top!  This is a three-piece ABS plastic cover that goes over the top when it is down.  Some people love them, some people never use them and they get lost. Some people think they are a pain to install and then prevent them from raising the top without having to get out of the car.  Well, this Saab had three of them.  This was a HUGE expense for the previous owner.  One set is beige and matches the leather interior.  One is black and matches the exterior color.  The third is dark grey and matches the sky today.  If you live in a warm climate and always have the top down you’ll love having choices!  The tonneau covers are kind of rare to see these days and are very hard to find.     Here is what the car looks like with the top up from a distance! There aren't that many convertibles that look decent when the top is up.  This is one of the few.     We always like to show some closer in pictures of our cars so you can get an idea of just how nice they are.  There is nothing but good to see on this Saab!  The last photo is a close up of the rust bubbling on the front half of the right rear fender lip.  It is an easy fix and this was the only rust we found on the car.     Here you can see how nice the custom Saab alloy rims are and what the tread is like on the tires. The rims look GREAT for their age!  If you look closely you can see the original green valve stem covers that came from the factory.  I've only seen one other Saab with a complete set and that was 8 years ago.     We’re not into hiding anything so here you can see the condition of the underbody and the rockers!     We got to drive this Saab about 100 miles and it was a joy to drive, albeit cold with the top down.  We have no doubts about it being able to make a long trip to get it home and under the tree before Xmas!  We’ll show this beauty off and let it speak to you itself!     Everything about this Classic Saab Turbo makes you want to own it and drive it!  It’s nice to see them in this kind of condition AND also in a NO RESERVE auction!  Here’s your chance to own one!       For a 21 year old non-smoking convertible interior we were smiling!  While far from perfect, the tan leather seats are all in nice shape.  There is very little abnormal wear showing.  The electronic adjustments are working for both seats.  The heated driver’s seat works fine.   Considering convertible leather interiors are exposed to more weather and sunlight we were very pleased.  This is really a beautifully kept interior for its age!     The inner door panels are looking just as great!     The dash area is in the same excellent condition as the rest of the car.  There are no trouble lights showing.  It has the common Saab issue in that the outer plastic trim around the instruments on the left side is peeling away.  The glove box is looking and working well which is rare to see.  The stock Saab stereo is there along with the very expensive (at the time) accessory CD player.  When the stereo is turned on for some reason the security code pops up on the screen and won’t let us enter it.  All the instruments work including the turbo boost gauge and odometer.  The power windows and mirrors are all working.  Even the cruise control works!  We did get one key fob with the car and it works along with the factory alarm system.  This is rare to see 21 years down the road.  With such below average miles on the car it comes off beautifully.  There is no way you’re not going to like this Saab’s interior!      All the original manuals are included!     Look at this SWEET, clean trunk! The mini-spare is under the cover on the left side.  Also here is a photo of the compartment under the trunk that still has the original factory plastic sack to put your flat tire into to keep the dirt off the carpets.  You can also see that the factory Saab tool kit is there and is 90% complete.  These are so rare to see that I just has to include a photo of it!     This is a very nice interior considering it’s age and the mileage on the car!  It is very RARE to find an interior in this kind of condition and it is obvious how well this Saab was cared for!  Convertible interiors always suffer more because of exposure to the weather but not here!       Being that this is a final year 1994 model, under the hood is the B202 160 horsepower 2.0-liter 16-valve fuel-injected turbo charged engine!  It starts and runs great with no leaking or smoking! This engine is reliable and very inexpensive to maintain!  It gives great torque and is still rated to return excellent fuel economy even by today’s standards!  You can see how clean everything is!   The automatic transmission feels and shifts great under all driving conditions!  While we didn’t receive the service records with this car we can tell you that cars like this don’t survive 22 years looking and driving this nice if they weren’t properly maintained.  High end Turbo Saabs are special cars and owners don’t ignore them.  This is a great driving Saab and we wouldn’t hesitate to drive it cross-country all summer with the top down!     And here is the VIN plate just so everyone can do their due diligence!         If you have EVER been in the market for a beautiful classic Convertible and miss out on this NO RESERVE auction, you MIGHT be tempted to do this!     Because we can pretty much guarantee that whatever this Saab sells for here, you will not find a nicer one anywhere close to the price ever again!  Everyone else is going to be very disappointed because they missed on this extremely clean, jet black, final year Saab 900S Turbo Convertible!    So don’t be like this guy! Run and place your bids Early! And please bid high, bid often, and bid in confidence! Because THIS Beautiful Classic awaits the lucky high bidder!  And you know you’re NOT going to see another one of these here in a NO RESERVE auction very often (unless it is us selling it!)!!!   If you have any questions, please feel free to write US by clicking here! For the Terms, Conditions, Return Policies, and other Pertinent Information for this auction (everything you need to know about bids, warranties, fees, and delivery!) PLEASE keep reading! Or forever hold your peace (‘cause it’s not our fault if you don’t read them)!  å PLEASE READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION CAREFULLY PRIOR TO PLACING YOUR BID.  THE MAJORITY OF YOUR QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED HERE! THIS IS A REAL AUCTION.  YOU ARE NOT BIDDING TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE OR FOR RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. YOU’RE ALSO NOT BIDDING TO WIN A VEHICLE SO YOU CAN TAKE IT TO YOUR MECHANIC AFTER THE FACT FOR THEM TO TELL YOU IF YOU SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT IT. YOU ARE BIDDING TO BUY AND TAKE DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE LISTED ABOVE IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR WISH TO VIEW THE VEHICLE BEFORE YOU BUY, PLEASE DO SO BEFORE YOU PLACE YOUR BID. WE WILL TRY TO SHOW ANYTHING TO ANYBODY BY APPOINTMENT DEPENDING ON WHERE WE HAVE THE VEHICLE STORED! AFTER YOU HAVE WON THE AUCTION IT IS TOO LATE TO ASK QUESTIONS, HEM AND HAW, ASK YOUR SPOUSE, OR ROB THE QUICKIE MART TO GET THE MONEY! A $500.00 DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THE AUCTIONS ENDING (EITHER BY PAYPAL, BANK WIRE TRANSFER, OR MONEY ORDER).  FULL PAYMENT IS DUE WITHIN 10 DAYS UPON DELIVERY OR BEFORE THE VEHICLE IS SHIPPED.  AFTER 10 DAYS, IF WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED YOUR FULL PAYMENT, AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN MADE, WE WILL RE-LIST THE VEHICLE AND YOU WILL FORFEIT YOUR DEPOSIT. O.K., all that being said in loud print, we’re the nicest, most understanding people on the planet and want to work with everyone to make their purchase a happy, comfortable one.  We understand fully that buyers have jobs, families, responsibilities and distances to travel.  The one thing we’re big on is communication.  As long as buyers keep us apprised of what is going on with their plans then we’re happy.  Please understand that, as stated above in the auction, we would like vehicles picked up within ten days of the auction’s end.  This isn’t because we like making buyers jump through hoops.  Vehicles that don’t get picked up prevent us from bringing more cars into our lot to offer up for sale.  Vehicles that aren’t picked up within 12 days will incur a $20 per day storage charge.  As of February 1, 2011, we can no longer be nice and absorb storage fees for buyers after the pickup deadlines.  In this recession our profits are way down and we’ve noticed more buyers announcing to us AFTER the auctions that they expect us to hold cars for them gratis an extra 2-3 weeks.  We’re making very little money on eBay offering cars in true no reserve auctions and the storage fees we’re charged remain the same regardless of what something sells for.  So, if you intend to delay on picking up your vehicle, expect to receive a storage bill.  We’re NOT going to start selling cars here with higher buy it now prices that punish all buyers because of a few people  Please show just as much willingness to work with us as we do with you! eBay’s New Feedback System As many know, eBay’s new feedback system doesn’t allow sellers to give buyers anything but positive feedback regardless of what they say about us.  Being a long time, dedicated, eBay Seller that specializes in vehicles that average 24 years old, even the eBay Motors Support Staff tells us that it is going to be impossible for us to maintain a perfect record.  They tell us that we’re easy targets for feedback extortion and nasty things of that nature simply because older vehicles are the most difficult to describe with 100% accuracy. As always, we continue to offer vehicles here represented as honestly as we possibly can without bankrupting ourselves having them checked out or having every flaw addressed.  Please understand that we’ll own a vehicle for a few days and write a description based on our opinions of it.  Having a buyer own it for 3 months, have mechanics take it apart, drive it for several thousand miles and then judge our description based on their greater experience is rather unfair but does happen.  Generally, whenever we might receive something less than positive feedback, it is an indication that a buyer has shown an unwillingness to either let us know about an issue, or a refusal on their part to exercise their option to return a vehicle that they feel might have been misrepresented. We know that the vast majority of buyers are reasonable and know that there is always a risk in buying an older used car long distance from words and pictures and that there are always differences in opinions based on personal experiences.  In a world where a dealer is more than willing to take back a car and refund the purchase price for misrepresentation it is actually very difficult to receive negative feedback though it does happen.  This reflects more on the integrity of the buyer than the seller.  Feedback abuse, extortion, and/or disputes will be adjudicated in the West Virginia Court system.   Vehicle Shipping Shipping arrangements/charges are the responsibility of the buyer.  We’re a used car dealership and NOT a shipping company ourselves.  So PLEASE don’t ask us to obtain a shipping quote for you.  Again, this is YOUR responsibility as a buyer and easy enough for you to obtain.  If you’re serious about a car you should get your own quotes and not trust one obtained for you. Take the time to do your due diligence on shipping.  A simple Google search will find you over 100 companies to choose from.  Shipping is usually cheaper in the long run than flying in yourself to pick up your vehicle.  One firm that our buyer’s have had a lot of success with is Mike at Safeway Auto Transport.  His number is 800-453-6334.  We strongly recommend NOT hiring United Road Services regardless of what they quote you.  We’ve had nothing but problems the few times we’ve been forced to deal with them.  We’d almost rather refund your deposit and cancel the sale than deal with them. Please read the following carefully Dealership Information After having been Amoco Auto in Washington, DC for 21 years, we’ve transitioned over to being American Export Pre-Owned Auto.  Our new address is 736B Williamsport Pike, Martinburg, W V 25401. American Export is a licensed used Motor Vehicle Dealership in West Virginia for automobiles.  All sales conform to the State of West Virginia Motor Vehicle laws.  By bidding, buyers agree that any legal arbitration will take place in the West Virginia Court system. Viewing Vehicles/Test Drives While our physical address is in Martinburg, for logistical reasons we usually have the vehicles we auction stored in other locations. Most commonly our vehicles are stored in the Northern Virginia area to better accommodate buyers flying into either Dulles International or Reagan National airports or shippers traveling the I-95 corridor. Generally 95% of buyers opt to pick up their vehicle from an off site location closer to the main transportation hubs. Because all the vehicles we list here are in no reserve auctions we do NOT offer test drives.  While this might sound offputting, please understand that, in a no reserve auction, a vehicle is technically sold the instant the first bid is placed upon it.  We take our eBay business very seriously and will not betray the trust of those who have entrusted their bids to us.  Even we don’t drive cars up for auction unless it is absolutely necessary to take it to a service or stoage facility.  This policy protects vehicles for whoever the high bidder is going to be and we will not risk the condition of a vehicle for someone who only wants to see if they might (maybe) make a bid.  Test drives are designed for more of a traditional retail buy it now/high reserve environment.  Not the no reserve wholesale auctions we do.   Temporary License Plates As a West Virginia dealer we can provide temporary tags to assist with the drive home.  The West Virginia Temporary Tag is good for 60 days and can be issued to buyers with proper identification and proof of insurance.  The fee for a temporary tag is $100 but it is good for a full 60 days after purchase.   For both in and out of state buyers: $50.00 Administrative processing fee This fee IS non-negotiable and non-refundable.   THIS FEE APPLIES TO EVERY AUCTION REGARDLESS OF WHO THE BUYER IS.  EVEN DEALERS MUST PAY THIS FEE!  This fee covers the title reassignment, reporting costs, and paperwork maintenance fees every dealer incurs when selling a car.  Because all our auctions are No Reserve, we are never guaranteed to make anything on a vehicle (and quite often don’t) yet still incur the same costs.  This is why this fee is disclosed and added onto the back end.  Before complaining, please note that the vast majority of dealers offering cars on eBay at high Buy It Now pricing or reserves still charge a similar fee even though their profits are guaranteed.   Payment Types Accepted:    We will accept Paypal for the deposit ONLY! Please do not try to pay in full using PayPal!   Balances are accepted via Cash on Delivery in person, Certified Check, Bank wire transfer, or Postal Money Order.  These are the ONLY accepted forms of payment. Please do NOT offer us chickens, children, credit cards, or other items.  Please don't ask us to set up payment plans or to allow you to pay us Tuesday for a hamburger today. By bidding on this or any of our auctions you agree to our terms of sale and, you also agree that if you are the winning bidder and do not contact us or send a deposit within 48 hours, we reserve the right to re-list the vehicle and/or sell it to the next highest bidder, and report you to eBay as a "Non-Paying Bidder" in accordance with eBay’s Unpaid Item Policy IF YOU’RE TOTALLY NEW TO THE EBAY AUTOMOTIVE BUYING PROCESS, PLEASE DROP US AN EMAIL BEFORE YOU BID We do not want to discourage anyone from bidding, only to verify that you are serious and to answer any questions you might have about the process! Buying a car on eBay for the first time can be exciting, scary, and confusing all at the same time. We want to help make it as easy as possible for you and answer any questions you might have.  Zero Feedback bidders, according to eBay rules, cannot be blocked, but if you have zero feedback and do not contact us before bidding, we do have the option to cancel your bid.  We rarely ever do this but if we notice that you’re bidding on 15 other cars at the same time as ours we might wonder about your level of commitment to our no reserve auction.  We take our eBay sales seriously and go to great lengths to protect the trust buyers place in us. ABOUT OUR DESCRIPTIONS & VEHICLES First off, the cars we list average 25 years old!  THEY ARE NOT NEW OR ANYWHERE NEAR IT!  If a car has been sitting for more than a year or two not being driven much, then the chances are very good that many parts will start wearing out quickly once a new owner starts to put a lot of miles on it in a short period of time.  This is not something a seller can predict or be held accountable for Descriptions are based on our basic inspections of the vehicle.  Descriptions of cosmetic condition are based on our opinion of what we see and may differ from your personal opinion.  We have worked with hundreds of vehicles and base our comments on comparison and the age of the vehicle. A vehicle that is described as "very nice", "Excellent", "beautiful", etc, is described that way based on similar vehicles of that age and mileage. Some buyers are “experts” on some vehicles while we are not. These buyers might be comparing our cars to the totally perfect, mint condition, 250K mile, show car they own or have owned in the past and be very anal retentive.  If you are this type of buyer, buying a car online that you can’t inspect in person might not be the right thing for you because nothing will ever meet up to your standards.  No used car is 100% perfect, no matter how well it was cared for. Remember that blemishes or issues may exist that we have not noted.  We do NOT examine every vehicle under a microscope, so small dings, scratches, chips, paint fade, windshield chips, washer motors, bushings, defrosters, loose trim, previous rust or damage repairs, rust, missing trim, loose headliners, missing radio buttons, etc. may not be noted, and we will not discount a vehicle because something like this is not noted in the description.  Because we offer all our vehicles in no reserve auctions we are NOT in a position to have them extensively gone through by certified mechanics or body and paint experts to assess their complete mechanical and structural condition.  If we notice something is wrong with a vehicle in the short time we have it before we list it we will have that issue addressed or disclose it in the description.  After a vehicle is purchased and then put under a microscope by the buyer after the fact doesn’t mean we knew of, or will take responsibility for, flaws that we were not aware of when listing the vehicle.  Issues we were not aware of can’t affect feedback.  Please don’t tell us after the fact that we HAD to know of this or that flaw.  We disclose what we’re aware of and don’t play those games.  We also may neglect to mention a cosmetic flaw that is clearly visible in the pictures.  Please look at all of the pictures carefully, as they are part of the vehicles description and ask questions if you have them. Unless otherwise noted in the description, the vehicle is in running, drivable condition, although we can never make any guarantees nor do we warranty any vehicle to pass a state inspection in ANY state unless noted otherwise in the auction description. Even then, if a vehicle has just passed a West Virginia or Virginia inspection, this doesn’t mean it will pass one from another state.  Our return policy covers misrepresentation of the vehicle.  We will not refund a purchase price or take back a vehicle just because you have buyer’s remorse or it doesn’t pass your state inspection or your personal mechanic’s inspection after you have taken delivery!  Also, be warned, if you purchase ANY older used car and then take it to a new car dealer for an assessment, expect a $2000 estimate regardless of how nice it is.  New car dealers are out to screw you fixing older vehicles!  We have seen dealers give $2500 estimates for what turned out to be $78 repairs!  Don’t moan to us if this happens.  The cars we list are generally low tech and any inexpensive garage can work on them for much less. Concerns and/or issues that we are not aware of may exist with this vehicle (including but not limited to mechanical and/or cosmetic) that are not listed in the description. We make every effort to fully disclose any major mechanical issues we find with a vehicle (engine, transmission, safety), but other issues may and probably still exist. Remember this is an older USED vehicle and will have blemishes and or problems that are normal for the age and mileage or common on that particular vehicle. (Please keep in mind that some cars have inherent issues...ie: Neons all have bad head gaskets, Taurus’ have bad transmissions, older convertibles tend to have some dampness and mildew, etc.  These issues may exist now or in the future with the vehicle you are purchasing.  We don't build them, we just sell them! Examples are (but not limited to) dings, scratches, etc, trim pieces that are not in original condition, and/or but not limited to features/options that do not operate or maintenance that might be required. Lack of cleanliness is not a defect! Please use common sense before asking us silly questions like if a car has been in a flood, a major accident, or if the title is clear.  We are very upfront in our descriptions and disclose everything we know about a car in it.  It is insulting to us that someone would think we would violate federal law and not disclose that a car has sat on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. Our descriptions, including vehicle features, are listed as accurately as possible, although we are not responsible for typographical errors in the listing.  We cannot/will not guarantee systems like Air Conditioning.  A vehicle’s air conditioning system may operate fine when we check the vehicle and then not when you come and pick it up.  This happens if a system has a small leak that we have no way of knowing about, especially when a vehicle sits.  The same thing applies to stereos.  Many aftermarket digital stereos are difficult to operate without manuals and we’re not in the habit of checking the operation of CD players or changers.  We will not reimburse for or perform any air conditioning system repair on any vehicle, even if the system is listed as working and it does not when you pick up the vehicle. This also applies to power options (windows, locks, seats, mirrors, radios, climate control, entertainment systems, etc)  Being that these are used vehicles, not all original equipment is always included with the vehicle.  Items including, but not limited to, extra keys or fobs, owners manuals, new car smell, spare tires (jacks, wheel tools), remotes, CD changer magazines, and floor mats, may not be included with the vehicle. The seller will not pay for these items if they are not there, or remove them from another vehicle.  Most of these items can be purchased from a dealer, auto parts store, or on eBay cheaply. Any issue either currently present or occurring in the future, whether disclosed in the listing or not, will be sole responsibility of the buyer, and the seller will NOT reimburse for any expenses incurred, or discount the purchase price!  We will gladly provide estimates to perform minor repairs if you wish us to.  Remember that just about ANY mechanic can find SOMETHING wrong with ANY used car.  Given time and mileage, something is bound to need fixing or maintenance.  We do NOT respond well to people trying to trade positive feedback in return for us fixing their car for them.  By bidding, you agree to accept responsibility for buying an older, USED car!  Feedback extortion (no matter how nicely it is phrased) is a crime, both in court and with eBay! We take our business and reputation seriously and will go to court to protect it. Please use common sense when determining if you will drive your new vehicle home.  A 25-year old car with 180,000 miles, even in the best of shape, is still 25 years old and still has 180,000 miles. Many of these vehicles may have never made a long trip, or have not been driven far in several years.  Older cars with very low mileage might only have been driven locally their entire lives and never on a trip. We do our best to accurately disclose all issues we’re aware of, but we have no way of knowing if anything will fail during a trip.  When we list a car on eBay we are aware of it being a national marketplace.  We only list cars that we feel are capable of making a cross country trip but, of course, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE ANY CAR TO MAKE ANY TRIP, NO MATTER WHAT THE CURRENT CONDITION! We HIGHLY recommend a AAA membership to anyone traveling cross-country, even in something brand new. No dealer or manufacturer can guarantee this on any vehicle whether new or used.  Please don’t expect us to do differently or hold us responsible if a problem occurs.  We don’t list vehicles with known problems or try to hide them! About Our Photographs People often ask me about, or compliment me on, my photography and how I do the pictures.  I work on a system and take basically the same set of pictures for every single vehicle.  Check our current and previous auctions to verify this.  I try to use the same location every time if possible.  I do NOT (and don’t have the time to) get sneaky with angles or lighting in an attempt to hide flaws.  While I do not specifically highlight flaws we don’t hide them because they’ll be seen eventually.  Some folks are scared that the vehicle pictured might be very different from the one they see.  Our photographs are taken with a pocket sized Canon SX-120is digital camera or an iPhone 4S.  I process them using Apple’s iPhoto version 8.1.2.  The only modifications I make to photographs are to crop them so they are framed properly.  Beyond that, I will only use the program’s automatic Enhance feature and then sharpen the photos so details will be more visible to the bidders in case they wish to download them to their desktops and further enlarge them. Several buyers have flattered me by asking to have copies of their vehicle’s photographs because they liked them so much. IPhoto is NOT like Photoshop and doesn’t give me the ability to alter or cover up huge rust holes in my photos.  I take a HUGE amount of pride in what I do and enjoy taking photos and like presenting cars nicely but, when processing 100’s of pictures, I don’t have the time or desire to modify pictures beyond what they are.  I’m not in the business of misleading buyers through pictures.  I take the photos and I’m the guy that meets you when you pick up the car.  Obviously, since I walk with a cane and my ass is easy to kick, it is better there are no surprises.  It’s that simple.  When you try it, digital photography is pretty simple. WARRANTY INFORMATION Please understand that the winning bidder will be purchasing this vehicle AS-IS with NO WARRANTY of any kind either expressed or implied. We want everyone to be happy with the vehicles they’ve purchased from us.  After the purchase you have 50 miles to drive your vehicle. If you can show we knowingly misrepresented a vehicle, please return it to us for a refund!     LEGAL INFORMATION BY WINNING AN EBAY AUCTION YOU ARE ENTERING INTO A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT!  THIS IS NOT A GAME SO DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU PLAN ON PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, OR YOU DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS!!!   You MUST have valid ID in order to purchase a vehicle from us.  This is the law and we cannot make any exceptions! State law also requires that you must be 18 years of age or older to purchase a motor vehicle from a dealer. If you are under 18 make sure you can have an adult willing to sign for & register the vehicle BEFORE you place your bids! Otherwise DO NOT BID...WE CANNOT SELL YOU THE CAR if you are underage no matter how much you like it!
