Often times the dealer will have companies all lined up so you can just get a quote from them. Other times you will be on your own to find a shipper.

I found that paying a little extra for shipping was really worth not having to deal with the headache of damaged merchandise later on. The best thing about buying any large item on eBay is that you get a large selection of items and can find exactly what you want often at a lower price.
Where I live there is one kind of car that is very popular; this car was good in all weather and looked very environmentally friendly.

So eBay may save you a lot of money just by buying something from an area that has a glut of the item you are looking for such as a specific type of used cars that is very popular or useful in your area.
