Buying an engine from ebay... GOOD OR BAD?

Now I am the opposite- I’ve had good luck on eBay - BUT you need to do your due diligence. Get as much info as there are scammer out there preying on people who do not know any better. Typically I make sure anything complicated like an engine or transmission - I can go get. Meet the person. Don’t worry about you eBay rating. If your gut tells you when you inspect it is junk- don’t walk… run. Allways pay on line even if it is last second. This way if you walk away… they don’t have your money.
But most people are decent, use your gut.
