Send him an email asking were the bike or quad is located...if he starts oh...well the bike is in europe but i can ship it blabla...report him to spoof@eBay.com since it is one of the RARE scammers that try to rip you off on eBay instead getting a fair or great deal.

After you did Win a Bid for a Dirtbike, ATV or Motorcycle on eBay.
Now this is where it gets "scary"....ask how he wants to get paid
This is how i would do it:
You pay a deposit with paypal at the end of the auction. Then you try to meet the buyer to hand him cash or cashier-check after checking the bike over and the title/frame. You can bring the listing printed out..(in case it does not match the bikes condition).
Ask the seller if he comes near your area soon? Think of friends that live in his town and come visit you, That can safe you a trip (friends could be also great to hand him the cash and help you with crating).
Ship a motorcycle, Dirtbike or ATV from eBay to you.
* Contact the seller. Get it all dialed in.
* Contact us or forwardair to find location near you and the seller.
* Bring vehicle there. You must have it crated or request a shipping container from them or us.
* Use a shipper that does not need crating.
Register an Out of State motorcycle, ATV or Vehicle.
In CA all you got to do is bring the vehicle, title, bill of sale to the DMV and get the bike inspected. Done. We don't know how to do it in Arizona or Nevada or any other states but it might be the same.
