I'd never part with £4k for something I haven't seen, no wonder people get ripped off if they are prepared to do that.
Keep looking, the right awning will come up sooner or later.

Absolutley,
Ebay is a great way to buy things...but it is not John Lewis!
You need to have your wits about you, but in my experience (over 200 deals) I have only met genuine decent folk and have never had a problem. Like Ali says, an item that can have varying characteristics needs to be viewed, or bought at the right price.
A couple of weeks ago I bid and won a model plane for £42. The photograph and discription was poor, it was obvious the seller knew nothing and could not even answer my questions in an acceptable manner.
I took a chance and came home with a very well made model that could be sold tomorrow for £120.
I have bought the occasional pup though but thankfully only lost a few quid.

i won a 2 year old trio mexico awning on ebay.only used twice.got it home opened it up and it was immaculate.cost me £27.00. neil
Same here, we got a brand new Pyramid Tuscany for £100 from Ebay, the owner had presumed his boss would let him tow a caravan with his firms car and bought the caravan and awning brand new, only to be told the bad news on monday morning.
We also have bought our trailer tent, and 2 caravans and porch awning from Ebay but viewed them before parting with the cash, but all were better than the photos and descriptions.
At least the seller did the right thing when he realised it had been damaged.
Cheers
Paul
