What does "normally" mean? Buyers don't share questions...

Brain fart, I meant to say "seller".

For something like an airplane, car, or boat, it's really not unusual
to actually CALL the seller before the auction ends.

I've sold exactly one thing on eBay -- a car. They guy who ended up
winning the auction contacted me about a week earlier and arranged to take
a test drive. Seemed like a reasonable thing to do.

I figured that, so I continued the explanation. G

FWIW, my co-owner and I are currently shopping for a bigger, faster
plane. Several times, we've spent literally hours on the phone with a
seller before we even decide to go look at it (or not). We've had
logs, AD lists, log copies, etc... faxed or FedEx'd. On a few
occasions, we've spent even more time on the phone with the folks who
made the log entries.

When we bought our current aircraft, the purchase decision was pretty
much made before we saw it in person, so I can't see eBay being much
different.
