eBay car shipping
I wanted to purchase a car on Facebook marketplace. The seller says the payment is to be made at a cvs for instance and shipping is free. She also stated it would be delivered to my address. I was told I had 5 days to test drive. Is this correct be for I purchase.

Mentor11 months ago@chocolate_1968 SCAM! There is no car.
If you saw the listing on another site and they said "eBay will handle the sale" it's a SCAM.
eBay has NOTHING to do with vehicle sales on another site.
Always pay for vehicles in person with cash or bank transfer after you have inspected the vehicle carefully.

OP11 months agoI have to pay the money at CVS and then the car is shipped in 2-5 days. I have 5 days to test drive. The I contact eBay to release the payment. Any truth in this.

Mentor11 months ago@chocolate_1968. No there is NO truth in this. It's 100% a scam and sadly some people fall for it.
I am glad you came here for help. This is a fairly common scam that eBay has nothing to do with.
There is no car. You never pay at CVS for a eBay purchase. You can not buy a car with gift cards.
