On April 19th 2014 I won eBay auction listed by Mr.Dreggors (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sport-60th-Anniversary-5-SPD-Hardtop-Clean-CARFAX-CD-Cruise-A-C-Tilt-A-/151277789404?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=qitOVAmckGFXNtekrsjP%252FMhM%252B0w%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc)
The auction final price was $9299.00 Vehicle was listed in great condition in and out (as it stated multiple times through the listing).
After writing emails and notifying Mr.Dreggors that I am looking for a first car for my 17yo daughter he assured me that she will love the car (via email) and that it's going to work for her just fine.
I paid Mr.Dreggors within few days after auction ended via Wells Fargo bank using their direct transfer services. Mr. Dreggors got funds right away.
After approx. 1 week he dropped off 2001 Jeep Wrangler at DAS Auto Shipping company in Florida.
I got the car 1 month later due to issues with shipping company. When I received car I did visual inspection and found major problems that were not disclosed during auction.
List of issues that were not disclosed to me:
1. Complete frame damage by rust (fist size holes). Frame cannot be fixed. Need to be replaced.
2. Car body under carpet has a lot of rust and requires major repairs.
3. Gas tank has rust issues.
4. Transmission has major issues.
5. Drive train has major issues.
Car does not pass safe inspection nor smog check.
I inspected car title and found out that the car previously was donated to Vietnam Veterans of America organization.
I contacted them and got confirmation that previous owner donated car. This was obvious that the previous owner donated the car because the damages were so major that it would cost a lot of money to fix it and would not make sense.
I contacted Mr.Dreggors and explained situation. I was asked to provide photos of the damages for review.
I provided images and videos via email. Here is link with images and videos - https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B9sIBcoTmERkOGIxWVVTUUFFUkE&usp=sharing
After I shared this info I was trying to contact seller (Mr.Dreggors) and he stopped answering my phone calls.
I tried to email as well but did not get any replies.
I contacted eBay and was advised to contact Florida DOT or DMV

#4 UPDATE Employee
Vehicle was inspected and sold AS-IS
AUTHOR: Brian - ()
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, June 11, 2014
- This is a 13 year-old Jeep - an off-road 4x4 vehicle - not a brand-new car.
- It was obtained by us through a Manheim auction where it was represented as in 'CLEAN/RUNS/DRIVES' condition.
- It was inspected and serviced by an ASE-certified auto repair facility in Tarpon Springs, FL.
- It was reconditioned to the tune of over $400 before being offered for sale on our front line.
- It was listed on eBay as a no-reserve/high-bid-wins auction.
- The listing contained 60+ unaltered photos of the vehicle.
- We allow independent 3rd party inspections of all kinds on any vehicle in our inventory; this one was no exception and it is even stated in the listing.
- This Jeep was won and purchased by Mr. Kryukov AS-IS with no guarantees expressed or implied. We have signed documents attesting to this acknowledgement.
- It was delivered by means of driving 40+ miles to his designated shipping depot in South Tampa with no issue.
- It was inspected again there by a depot representative
- It was in transit for (according to Mr. Kryukov) +/-30 days in unaccounted conditions and possession.

You sent your money off to somebody you don't know to buy a USED CAR you've never seen or checked out. That's right...throw COMMON SENSE out the window all for a stupid car.
Quickly get some professional help!
