Scam. No doubt in my mind. Tell the seller you are wanting to come pick up the car with cash in hand, ..., with your brother the FBI agent, ..., & see what he replies with.

You shouldn't post things like that. It can confuse newbies or naive people big time. There is NO mandatory inspection whatsover. I've sold 3 cars on ebay in the past year. Some ebay sellers are flat out evil unremorseful car salesmen that look to dump their junk. They will lie through their teeth. The buyer has to be extremely careful when buying on ebay and must do their own homework to avoid a serious mistake. There are many excellent sellers but just as many bad ones.
