Man eBay needs to just fix this crap. I can't believe this is still a problem after so many years. Either way, it was a pleasure helping out on this car. I hope the sale goes as planned this time around. You deserve it bro

You have to get in contact with Ed, tavarish, or Tyler. And have them speak to ebay motors on your behalf. (If not they will never take this seriously). This happened to me on ebay motors. They don't care because they get final value fees every time. I listed my skyline there twice and they charged me twice. Even tho it never sold because of fake bidders.

Man I really hope that nobody ever has an accident in this car.

Ebay motors does things for famous content creators. Not normal people like myself. eBay motors also* allows people (who have sold thousands of items) to scam smaller sellers (like me). And since they're high volume sellers, they will settle in their favor so they don't lose revenue. I had someone clearly say they want my tires, know the condition, know they shouldn't be used for anything other than rolling around the shop, etc. (They literally harrased me for days). Then I sold them to the person and said do you understand there is no returns and it is final sale. They agreed and reiterated it many times. Then they thanked me for the item saying they're perfect. (After recieving em). Then days later filed a false return. Send me back one single random tire. Then kept my tires, listed them for sale, and I got charged double what I sold them for. (I showed all proof and ebay didn't care).

In the past you could set restrictions on who could bid. No feedback, newer than X amount of time, etc to keep unestablished account from bidding. I no longer sell big ticket items on eBay, but look into those restrictions in the future.

Just an FYI, you might wanna add supports to that harness bar or run the harnesses differently. In the event of a crash, the bar looks like it could bend from the force.

Man, I am not living in the US, if I was, I would definitely have bought the car from you. Been following you channel over a year now and I be so stoked of what you do

Long time ago, eBay bought the marketplace which we use in our country. It has been like this forever.

yo, props for drilling, grinding and welding in a shark suit without parrell. lol. i was welding on 3-2-23 and had the drop light to my left (hot) welder in front (hot) and nothing to my right, but all a sudden while im welding my right arm starts getting super hot, like hotter them my left arm rigth next to the spot lamp (hot) and i lift my hood, look down and my entire FN shirt is on fire haha. needless to say that was allot of fun lol

eBay used to have a variety of tools to prevent this, back when they owned PayPal

Ebay has all the buyer protection in the world, but what do they offer the seller?

That surf shark add was epic😂😂😂😂

Ive only posted 3 cars for sale on EBay and each one “SOLD” for my asking price and not one, so called, buyer even responded to a message, much less paid for one. It’s such a simple fix for eBay by take a refundable deposit from a buyer before being allowed to bid or buy. I feel like even $200 would keep most of the broke idiots away.

There’s never any type of protection for the seller. Just fees they collect on every transaction. One of the reasons I stopped selling on eBay. It’s a disastrous scam nightmare

And want to add as an IT guy, that Ebay can easily track this people, and blocking them from creating fake accounts.

Is that the Kitty perry shark from the Super Bowl. You know the one who couldn’t dance ?😂😂😂😂

It’s not just ebay motors. It’s regular ebay too. I think it’s bots that are bidding. As from what I’ve seen the profiles normally are new (within a month or two) and have no reviews on them. I’ve sold allot that never get paid but luckily I don’t ship out right away unless they immediately.

You working in the shark suit…priceless 😂

Remember Kaleb, "From adversity, Heros are born" dont get discouraged. Keep trying. You make amazing content.

I think one thing that could potentially really help the channel is car meets. Not your tik tok kid meets, legit meets, cool location, all friends. I watch every vid and I’d be down to drive out there for a weekend and show off my project and learn from others and see what they have done.

I can’t believe that’s not already a thing with eBay motors

Yooo!! Kaleb! I hate this happened to you bro!! I remember watching ebay and being so stoked that the bid went so high during the auction but then also super bummed when it fell through!!! Hope it sells quick bro!! Super stoked that your back to posting your videos again!! Hope all is well with you and the fam!!

I was on the other side of this issue. In 2019 I placed a bid on a decent 1946 Ford coupe street rod. I lost the bid but the winner bailed. Seller list it again......same thing. The 3rd time it was listed I was the 2nd place bidder and winner again bailed. Seller contacted me and asked if I was serious. He said I had 3 days to get him a bank draft for our agreed price, I did and a week later I had a 46 Ford street rod in the garage. But you are correct.....seems this is a big issue with the way things work on ebay.

I’m sorry this happened to you. Your builds are great! Keep working hard!

So sad to hear about scammers, hope you sale the car & get some money back.

You can actually select in your listing that only verified accounts can bid on your sale. Most people don't do this. At least in Australia anyway. But we don't use eBay over here anymore. Haven't for years.

Very big issue in the reseller community. I sell on eBay for a living and no longer do auctions. I’m obviously on a much smaller scale on a single item but definitely has been a issue for year. I just scratch my head with this cause it is such an easy solution.

Double thumbs up Kaleb!! 👍🏽👍🏽

I thought there was an option to stop 0 feedback users from bidding? At least last time I checked it was an option on the UK website.

I have said this for a long time. Jerks who bid stuff up just for the fun of it with no intention of buying. Another issue is the dealers who list their stuff as No Reserve and then either create fake account to jack up the price or out bid the top buyers because they didn't get enough money bid. Then a week or so later you see the same car up for sale again. Back in 2016 I followed and bid on the same vehicle from the same seller for 4 different attempts over a 2 month period of time and every time it bid out but never sold. Then it finally got posted with a reserve and after ending (but not meeting reserve) for a sale price of less than it sold for on 2 other occasions with no reserve it went away.

Damn man that is a big problem. How many projects have been affected by bs like this

How about listing on bring-a-trailer where there is an automatic funds holds when a bid is submitted?

Omg the shark kept coming back throughout the video ☠️☠️☠️☠️🤣🤣

The whole platform has the same problem. I've had it happen with a car, car parts, and non car stuff. Never three times though... ridiculous...

So this is why I'm not seeing alot of good shit on Ebay anymore.... shame I used to actually buy things off there.

That shark suit... hysterical.

Love your videos man, great editing, the interaction with your kids, awesome builds. Seriously a stand up guy. Keep up the good work man!

I love the Shark outfit, best surf shark ad I've ever seen 😂

This has been a problem with Ebay forever. I have been a member since 1999, and I have had many car auctions burned there. I am very hesitant to list any more cars there. I like Bring a Trailer because they require 5 percent of the bid price to be held until the end of the auction from the bidder.

This may be my favorite RU-vid ad ever 😂! great content as always, keep up the hard work!

You know there is a function on your seller dashboard where only people that have 5 or more buys can only bid. I know 5 isn't a lot but at least it beats a buyer that just created an account.

I feel for you bro. I've been there before, it is very sad 👍🏾. I hope you are able to get this gem out the door.

What happened with the wide body Datsun 620 build?

The seats make it clean! GLWS

I’d watch full video of you wearing a costume lol 😂 that was funny

Do you still think about the mr2 possibility regret selling it

It SUCKS that some people are that DISGUSTING, I hope you sell it for a number of reasons. That surfshark plug was the best & funniest plug I've ever seen!

Really missing the videos man, hope everything is going well

Why are people like that? SMH. This is why I don’t bid on eBay.

0:41 - 5:16 wtf was that gap in the story for

you should only be allowed to vote or bid on vehicles for the amount of money you already have cleared as valid with ebay, like a holding house for auction money purchases. dont have founds verified. cant bid.

I wanna see some driving clips of this thing, would be nice

Really like seeing you back!

What happened to the datsun build

I like the rebrand. Keep up the work Caleb bro I'm with ya, you're a badass fabricator and a good dad role model for your little guys I just had my son earlier this year and what a ride.

Would love to see some more Porsche content!

I'm still Interested in the old MGB GT radio if you are willing to sell it.

Great to see you back. Also sl500 is sick. Keep it going.

He’s back in my notifications 👍🏻👍🏻

I would LOVE to get that car. Man, I need to get rid of my truck too!

I've had nothing but problems buying used auto parts from Ebay Motors. The photos and descriptions on many parts are misleading and sometimes flat out wrong.. Yet the sellers rely on their "No Return" policy to swindle many buyers on thousands of used auto parts. The sad part is, Ebay let's them get away with it. For a while I thought is was just me with the types of cars and trucks I restore but now I'm finding out from many people that they just don't use Ebay unless they have to.

That sucks, I was wondering how that went. Good luck bro, I know you'll get it!!

I'm glad too see your doing alright been a minute

WHERE IS FATSUN Ep. 35?!?!?!?! That is my question! Where is the finished Fatsun?

Love that car! Keep us posted on the sale 😊

Crazy how yt hasn't shown any of ur vids in the past month even though I've been subd

Wish I would get notified when a new video dropped. Guess the bell isn't working.

Notification squad!

I see the shokz you got on!! Good set of headphones

What happened to the fatsun?

Just out of curiousity, would Cars and Bids be a place you could sell this? On the surface it seems like they are a bit better protected than Ebay motors and this is certainly an enthusiast car! Hope it sells, keep up the good work!

Sucks that they did you like that :/ One way I saw car youtubers in my region push cars is through payed entry raffles They sell tickets online... lets say at 50-100 bucks per entry, one person can buy multiples and then they pick a name through a randomizer and give the car to the winner. And they do it quite often so I assume it is financially viable. The real question is, is it legal in the US.

This is why I stopped selling on eBay years ago, good to see nothing has changed

literally no reason to list cars on ebay anymore since Facebook marketplace and Facebook pages dedicated to specific cars came out.

I can't believe I'm saying this but the video is worth a watch for the sponsor bit alone lol. Surfshark needs to send you a bonus check!

Hang in there brother 🙏 💪 your doing good things, keep up the good work, you put out very good content.

i agree completely and this is why i do not use thee site for anything more than parts ... maybe if #ebaymotors would step there game up and require a non refundable down payment to any bidders to ensure nun of this bs to people that are actually trying to commit business not just play broke games ... anyways keep up the great content bro , peace and love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on ... l8z

I recently wondered why I hadn't seen any notifications after I had it set to all I checked, and it was set to none? Anyway I've set it to done again so hopefully I won't miss anything ✌🏼

Now that's how your keep a viewers attention during an ad!

What happened to the fatsun

This car is sick! All it needs is a manual swap to be absolutely amazing! If I didn't have so many current projects I'd love to pick this up!

The problem is ebay only cares about profit then the customer, Not the seller. If they require collateral it goes against a potential bid. It sucks but it’s ebay.

such a shame, when all you want is to help other people. Keep at it your doing a great job. 2x👍

sick build ..

They will never fix it ever since 2008 when the old ceo left the company has had issues and there is a reason for that look at the qualifications of the ceo then and know and you will understand

One of the, if not the best VPN ad i’ve seen. You just made my morning haha! Still glad to see you back on here man, hope you’re all good and have a good weekend:)

I would like from you to build a Mercedes Benz Car for you. One of the following cars 560SL, 560SEC or 560SEL { AMG WIDEBODY DESIGN }. & Boost it to 560 HP's.

Sorry you had the problems you had with the sale on this car!!!

Why not post it on Doug's Cars and Bids

When we gonna get more of the Fatsun? 😢😢

That's so scary i would not trust rivnuts for something like a seat that's life

Range rover classic 4 door 😍😍😍 V8 ?

Just give it to I’ll come pick it up😅😅

I really appreciate your positive attitude and persistence, despite all the difficultly you've faced in doing what seems like it should be so much more simple. Sell something to benefit charity. I really hope you can get it done!

I would daily this thing and love it 😂

That's a bad ass Mercedes

Miss you bro.

It's great chanel Better days a caming.Have some felt

Sounds like the second place guy was the scammer
