Buying a car without an inspection - is it risky?

[royerfyodor]

I recently purchased a car online. The description on the website promised perfect condition, but in reality there were serious defects. After the purchase, it turned out that some parts were not working properly. Contacting the seller did not give any results. Does anyone have experience buying a car online without a prior inspection?

Buying a car without seeing it first can be tricky, I had similar doubts when I ordered online, and I spent a lot of time checking reviews and comparing options, the process can be stressful at first but it teaches patience, I found that be forward offers a wide selection which helped me understand the variety available and set realistic expectations, overall it was a learning experience and I feel more confident for future purchases.

That makes sense — doing thorough research really helps when buying a car online, and it’s great you turned it into a positive learning experience.
