eBay offers Vehicle Purchase Protection which ensures that buyers receive the vehicle they paid for, with coverage up to $20,000 (USD) against fraud or material misrepresentation.
Note: The seller does not choose this. It is offered by eBay.
On the eBay Motors US marketplace, when a GetItem call is issued, the following purchase protection information is returned:
- If Vehicle Purchase Protection is available,
PurchaseProtection
=true
- If Vehicle Purchase Protection is not available,
PurchaseProtection
=false
Other marketplaces that both support this feature and use Item Specifics for vehicles return similar information.
