Anyways.. it says in the auction DON'T BID.. that isn't an actual auction, but an ad for the engines they have. They will just setup a buy-it-now price for the engines seperatly if there is interest.

I have bought off ebay, the only thing I would say is your should be able to drive and pick the motor up. Thats what I did with mine and it turned out and went smooth.

Ya I'd be kinda sceptical about buying an engine...sure there are some who got lucky and got a good engine but for all you know it could be **** and maybe even blow more than a rotor!!

The same can be said about anything you buy used from anyone.. You could buy an engine from some guy in person and it may last you 200,000 miles or blow a rotor on the way home.. There's really nothing you can do that is going to tell you that and theres really no difference when buying it on ebay.. Just be smart, look at his feedback, language and services that he offers you. I've actually found there to be more honest people on ebay that in real life..
