I think most people (not dealers, they don't care) are pretty straight forward when it comes to selling cars to people that are a ways away, don't want to risk an *** kicking I guess..the first thing this guy did was send me close up shots of the "defects" he mentioned when I asked about the body, so I'm pretty confident. If the guy seemed like a putz I probably wouldn't have gone this far.
I'm with you. I have purchased a used Corvette, Durango, and Crossfire sight unseen and of course several new vehicles. All have been out of state and the Corvette and Durango and all of the new ones were from dealers. I would much rather do it that way than go and listen to the BS from some salesperson. It seems like if they put it in writing (email) they have considerably more tendency to be honest. If they only want to talk on the phone just tell them to forget it because you have no way to verify what they said.
