yup, IF THE AUCTION ENDS!!!!! i say that cause the seller can cancel the auction early if the price doesnt go high enough..it sucks but they can do it...i bided on a early 90's mercedes wagon 4-matic with less than 100,000 miles on it with no reserve. I had the car won. my highest bid was like 3,000 dollars. 10 minutes before auction ended they cancelled it. one month later they put the same car on ebay again with the EXACT same page nothing was changed except the price, which started at 8,000 dollars. I emailed ebay and gave them the old item number along with the new item number and asked them if the crappy wholesale dealer could end auction early just because price didnt go high enough. they sent me a nice reply that said YES...they can end auction early and relist car, but if auction ended they were stuck at selling it at the winning bidders price...so there ya go....

ewwy that sucks. Someone probably came to them personally to buy the car or they figured out they could get more money out of it, or they jus put the wrong price on there in the first place and realized it right before the end of the auction when they checked up on it. Or something....lol

This is a 83 SR5, looks pretty good, missing 2 emblems, but mostly good. Seller mentions mostly rust free which is an important factor. Starting bid is high. Located in Oregon. It's an SR5 and no A/C! :angry: Anyway here it goes: <a href='http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 2478736299' target='_blank'>http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 8736299</a>

It went away and came back with a different item number. Now it only starts at $100, it was $200 before.

I'm guessing that that's a FWD...I think you can tell by the straight bar across the grill? :unsure:

That's a front wheel drive telling from the front end and if you look closely you can see there's no fwd/4wd shifter. Maybe it didn't sell because of the huge dent in the front fender and two of the doors.
