I have purchased three Saabs on ebay.
I have looked at at least ten other Saabs in person, and passed on them.
There are a lot of con artists selling junk on ebay. Don't trust anyone's word... verify everything.
One auction I won said: "two keys included". I kid you not... one of the keys was for the locking lug nuts.
Be sure to ask about cigarette smoke odor, if it bothers you. I've looked at several cars that were nice, but smelled like ashtrays. Not easy to get rid of that smell. It sometimes explains why seemingly-nice cars aren't selling.
In my opinion, there are some great deals to be had, if you do your homework. I looked at a very nice, low mileage (30,000) '03 convertible last month. It sold for around $12,900. I didn't buy it because I didn't like the color. Otherwise, it was a great car. Someone got a deal on it.
Before you bid, copy and paste the VIN into Google and Yahoo. I've avoided some costly mistakes by doing so. One car I was interesed in had been listed for sale on AutoTrader several months earlier with front end damage. The damage was fixed, and not mentioned in the ebay auction listing.
