I bought my Z4MC on BaT. I like the 5% buyer's fee. Seller didn't like the pressure to set a low reserve.

I've also had very strong evidence of shill bidders on BaT, and brought them to the attention of the admins, who essentially ignored me. How strong you ask? The car was local so I went to see it in person. The seller told me his reserve and offered to sell me the car on the spot for a bit less. Later during the last day of bidding the car was pushed up to $100 below reserve by two brand new bidders. Ahem.

All in all though I think BaT does a pretty good job of keeping sellers honest.
