    hi
    i'm interested in buying a camper and particularly like the old vw vans, I've seen a few for sale on mycamper.ie but it seems that most of them are a UK reg and the sales go through paypal etc
    I'm just wondering if anybody has any experience of buying this way or from this site?
    The prices seem very low towards other sites I've been viewing ....

    RUN AWAY! Those are advanced payments scams.

    Anyone who expects to get a 2006 autotrail for €7300 might actually fall for it too.

    You should contact the owner and ask him to remove the ads or the site as he is facilitating fraud.

    A handy trick is to pick an image, right click and open it in a new tap, go to that tap right click and select google search this image.

    I was thinking it was too good a price to be true........
    and do people really buy cars/ campers on Ebay?

    So can anybody recommend a good site/ dealer to search for a van?

    I bought my camper on ebay on the understanding, from the start of bidding, that it would be a cash transaction once I had seen it and verified it was as advertised. It was.

    You should join the classic vw club eircooled.ie they know what they are looking at and would give great advice before you buy. There is also a member on there that sources and imports vans from the states that are far cheaper and better condition than what's available here.
