I Purchased a car using eBay and it turned out that this 2007 Car should not be on the road and has a 3 page list of faults so I started to look at the seller of this car and soon discovered he was in fact a car dealer and had been kicked off eBay several times after a couple of the members complained about him.
Since I have consumer rights I contacted eBay to ask for contact details and what I got back was half an address and a telephone number registered to an hospital. I asked eBay for more information so I could take civil actions but they did not reply. Other people contacted me and told me that this particular trader has had several accounts closed down already and they to would like to contact him.
It seems to me that eBay are only concerned with getting paid and you can bet payment for the advert of the car I brought got paid no trouble.
Since eBay won’t protect buyers I decided to write a program that list all the cars the seller has sold in the past along with technical details for each car and in some case it provides an average selling price. See http://ebaymotors.freeblogit.com/
Later I will be publishing a list of sellers on the internet who are not registers as a business and are selling several cars a month with links to cars they have sold in the past in an effort to get eBay to protect buyers and ensure they don’t hide behind the data protection act when asked to provide details and to pass on more information so that fraudsters can be tracked down.
eBay are quite able to stop this practice and all they need to do is write a bit of SQL like
Select Count(*) from Sales Where Count>5 and ItemCategory =Car AND AccountType=’Private’
