Cleveland Brownie - The dealer that I purchased my vehicle from actually has two names. Their Ebay handle is "Platinum Auto" and I believe the name of the physical location is Royal Auto Sales. I think the 2nd question that you are asking is pertaining to how was my experience buying a car off of ebay, and to answer that question, it was really really simple. Ebay motors offers alot of variety and in general there are A LOT of photos and descriptions about the cars, also you can review all the buyer responses to the dealer. This in essence is the "checks and balances" of the ebay experience. I saved alot of money by purchasing off of ebay and by financing through Lending Tree. I would recommend ebay to everyone. To answer your 3rd question, yes, it was everything that I expected it to be and MORE. Once I saw it in person, I was like OMG, thats MY car. The only thing I regret is not checking the windshield wipers. Unfortunately they are not operable. Everything else is great. By the way, I used to live in Waukegan. I was in the Navy. I did Bootcamp up there in the Summer of '99 and I did my A school at Great Lakes - the Winter's in Chicago are NO JOKE.
