First, huge red flags on this seller. Has a feedback score TOTAL of 8, and only ONE single feedback on a sale (everything else is on purchases). And that one sale is a Disney costume, not exactly something to which you can assume this seller will know how to pack and ship a bike. So you really took a chance buying from this guy.

But against this risk, you paid a really low price for the bike. Part of that low price is for buying from a new seller/zero experience seller. So unless there is serious damage, I would just call it OK. That same bike sold by a more professional ebay seller would have gone for a lot more, and would not have had that low buy it now price.

Myself, I have bought from newbie sellers before, but on bikes from newbies, I will always pick it up. Sometimes this means some serious driving. But packing a bike to ship takes a lot of skill, and there is nothing in this listing that would make me believe this seller had any of that skill.

That box looks like one purchased at a mail box etc or similar type store. Bike shops have bicycle boxes, that are extremely heavy wall. Of course, bike box or not, its all about the packing, and poorly packed in a bike box can = major damage. A bicycle box is just an empty shell, that you insert a carefully packed bike into. Randy Jawa has some packing info on his site, and the Miamijim posting on bike packing is excellent.

You really got lucky the bike is not in worse shape.

+1 Some of those scrapes were already on the bike.
