As the world's largest online auction, eBay sells everything from antiques and clothing to the latest in electronics. What many people don't know, however, is that eBay also has a category called eBay Motors that allows buyers and sellers to connect when someone wants to purchase or sell a vehicle. If you are looking for a pickup truck, it really isn't hard to buy one on eBay, but there are a few things you need to know before you get started.

Research the type of pickup truck you want to buy. Purchasing a truck on eBay is very similar to purchasing one from a dealer (except you often have to buy the truck without seeing it in person). Make sure you know how much the type of truck you want is worth, since it is easy to get into a bidding war when participating in an auction online.
2Consider how you will get the truck home. Once you have bought the vehicle, most sellers will expect you to pick it up. To make this process easier, eBay provides shipping quotes through several transport companies, as well as one-way airfare options if you want to fly there and drive the truck back.
3Search eBay for the type of truck you want. eBay allows you to search for the make and model of truck you want to buy. You can also search for a certain price range and year model.
4Read all the details before you buy. Although eBay offers some recourse if there is a problem, if you miss an important detail in the listing (such as the engine needs work), you will still be expected to carry out your side of the contract.
5Place your bid. Once you have decided on the truck that you want, it is time to make a bid. If you have the highest ending bid when the auction ends, you have won the truck and must then pay for it and arrange delivery. eBay also allows sellers to offer vehicles at a "Buy It Now" price, meaning, there is no auction and you can purchase the vehicle at a set price. Some sellers also allow you to make a lower offer, so many listings have this option available to you too.
