Are eBay Motorcycles legit?
Just like anything you can’t see with your own eyes before buying, you’ll have to do some homework on your seller. But the majority of the time, buyers find a motorcycle on eBay that they love and a uShip carrier that delivers it on time and in good condition. As an extra precaution, eBay currently recommends both buyers and sellers look into escrow services approved by eBay Motors.
How do I Learn More about an eBay Motorcycle Seller?
Every eBay seller will have their buyer feedback posted publicly, so you can read reviews from buyers and make an informed decision. Something to keep in mind, however, is that a real seller is going to have a mix of good and bad reviews, and a fraudulent seller might appear to have too many good reviews. Look into common eBay motors red flags and keep your motorcycle dreams heading in the right direction.
How do I Purchase a Motorcycle on eBay?
eBay gives you two ways to buy a motorcycle from their motors category. You can participate in the eBay motorcycles auction, where several potential buyers compete to submit the highest bid before time runs out (usually 5 to 10 days). Helpful tip, try to place your bid towards the end of the auction for the best chance of winning.
If the thrill of competition isn’t your thing, some sellers will set a “buy it now” price on their listing. If this is the case you can make your purchase and pay with one of eBay’s accepted methods of payment. There’s an art to buying motorcycles on eBay, so keep an eye on uShip’s helpful resources to stay prepared.
