You are about my height. I would try bikes in the 58cm to 63cm size, if the bike is an older bike with a horizontal top-tube like the one in the eBay advert. Bike size is measured from the center of the crankshaft axle to the top of the top-tube (where the seat-post emerges). Chances are that bikes smaller or larger are not going to fit.

The red bike is probably too small.

I would buy a bike without a test ride.
