Answer
Your're pretty much explaining why I would never buy a guitar off eBay

You should sit down, in a real music store, (NOT Guitar Center)
and have someone help you,

You should try the guitars, see how they feel, how they compare,
Find one that has a straight neck, properly adjusted, low strings, easy to play, no buzzing of the strings

eBay can be a real crapshoot, if you haven't had experience setting these up yourself.

Some stuff is decent, some is junk, and you never know which is which.

With your size, you could play/buy any size you want.
The bigger Dreads will have a larger, deeper sound,
the OM, concert, and 000 sizes will have better balance, better definition.

Yamaha, Martin, Taylor, Takamine are all good brands, but it depends a lot on how much are looking to spend.

Under $300, most of the stuff is not very good,
(not all, but 90 %)

$300-600, is the biggest part of the market,
You can get several different hand made American Taylors, for under $1000.
