Answer 1

You can contact eBay and see what their procedure is for such incidents.. It has probably happened before. You can also go talk to your local District Attorney. This may be classified as a type of fraud since the seller apparently lied about the cleared title. It may also be a more serious offense if the transaction took place over state lines. The DA should be able to direct you in the right direction as far as filing charges and/or attempting to recover your money.

Answer 2

Disputes over items not received or received but significantly not as described can usually be resolved by direct communication between buyers and sellers. eBay provides an online process to help facilitate communication. eBay’s User Agreement state that sellers must deliver the items that buyers purchase from them.

Typically, there are five steps in the Item Not Received or Significantly Not as Described process:

Step 1: The buyer opens a dispute.
Step 2: eBay contacts the seller.
Step 3: The seller responds.
Step 4: The buyer and seller communicate.
Step 5: The dispute is closed.

Step 1: Buyer opens a dispute.
Buyers can open an Item Not Received or Significantly Not As Described dispute between 10 and 60 days after the transaction date (the date when the listing closes and the buyer commits to buying the item and the seller commits to selling it). When opening a dispute, the buyer indicates whether the item was not received or whether it was received but significantly not as described.

Note: If the item was paid for with PayPal, the buyer will be referred to the PayPal claims process to resolve the dispute.

Step 2: eBay contacts the seller.
Once a dispute is opened, eBay contacts the seller, informing them that the buyer has opened a dispute and encouraging them to communicate with the buyer. Most of the time, this communication leads to resolution before further steps are taken.

Step 3:The seller responds.
The seller is presented with several response options.

I would like to communicate with the buyer. The seller can then post a message for the buyer to review.
In an Item Not Received dispute, the seller can also respond:

Payment has not been received, or has not yet cleared.
I've already shipped the item. If the item has already been shipped, the seller may provide shipping details for the buyer to review.
I'll offer a full refund. The seller can offer to return all the buyer's money.
In an Item Significantly Not as Described dispute, the seller can respond:

I've shipped a replacement item. If the seller has shipped a replacement item, they may provide shipping details for the buyer to review.
I'll offer a refund. The seller can offer a full or partial refund to the buyer to attempt to resolve the dispute.
Step 4: The buyer and seller communicate.
The buyer and seller attempt to resolve the dispute by continuing to communicate directly through eBay's online process.

Step 5: The dispute is closed.
The buyer has two options to close the dispute:

My concerns have been resolved. With this option, no action is taken against the seller's account and the buyer is not eligible to file a claim under eBay's Standard Purchase Protection Program. A closed dispute cannot be re-opened, so the buyer must be sure that they are entirely satisfied before they decide to close a dispute using this option. For example, if the buyer is offered a full refund by the seller, they should not close the dispute until they have received the full refund.
I feel I have no other option but to escalate this to a claim. When the buyer selects this option, eBay's Trust and Safety team is immediately alerted about the transaction. If warranted, the seller's account may be restricted or suspended. If the buyer closes the dispute with this option and the transaction is eligible, then the buyer may file a claim under eBay's Standard Purchase Protection Program, where they may be reimbursed up to $200 (minus a $25 processing cost).
The buyer can close the dispute at any time if the issue is resolved. The buyer can escalate the dispute to a claim if the seller does not respond within 10 days, or anytime after the seller responds and at least 30 days after the item listing closed.

A dispute can only be open for 90 days after the transaction date. If the buyer has not closed the dispute within 90 days, it will be automatically closed. When a dispute is automatically closed, the seller is not reported to eBay's Trust and Safety team and the buyer is not eligible to submit a claim under eBay's Standard Purchase Protection Program.

Answer 3

your local DMV will issue replacement titles that have temporary status just in case another owner claims the vehicle (rarely happens). If they never do claim the vehicle then you will eventually be able to get a permanent title. If someone does claim the vehicle you may have the ability to take legal action against the eBay seller.

Answer 4

Contact eBay?

Answer 5

what is wrong with the title? Is it a lien holder problem? if so you should be able to contact the lien holder and find out why it still has a lien. With out knowing what is precise problem I can't not answer fully. email me and I might be able to answer.
