Advice on selling car on Ebay
 

Hi all have had my 2oo1 GX in the autotrader for a couple of weeks and nothing. Thinking of sticking it on Ebay but have only bought bit's off Ebay before could anyone give me any solid advice and do's and don't's. Some advice on what to put down in the advert would be greatfull.
Thank's Nardoblue
Need to get rid so I can insure my WRX

so nobody has any advice or do's and don't's???????????

be as descriptive as you can especially with faults if any

describe all extras all paperwork

definatly avoid 0 feedback bids state you will delete them if no prior notification by email etc


take a good 4 pics of the car

take a gamble start with no reserve not unless your after loadsa money for the car, if thats the case dont even bother placing on ebay

have faith it will make its true money if your helpfull and descriptive in the advert


if want to set your min reserve truely make it your min, as the amount of cars i see on there with stoopid prices that are never reached are unreal, plus a waste of a 7 quid insertion fee

only sell to uk bidders state that in the advert


sell to uk only

cheers apple24 I'll leave it in the autotrader for a while as I've changed the area but your comments are much appreciated . Nardoblue

i thought ebay was great had a 16v astra on put a buy it now price on and it did £363 more then the price :cuckoo: dont ask me how but had:thumb:

Do a search on ebay for cars similar to yours, copy and paste a good ad and just change the detals that fit your car. With the odd tweak to make it how you want it.

I never allow anyone with a rating of less than 10 bid unless they email me a landline number and their address.

thanks for all the advice lads keep it coming

yup agree with all above

my only gripe with ebays system is you can only stop bidders with a neg feedback, if were the seller we should be able to stipulate who we want to allow to bid, id certainly block bidders less than 5 without consent


think they need to sort that one

Make sure that when you're listing the car you know for definite that you will be able to access the net for the last hour of the car's auction.

I never let a car end on ebay without me monitoring every bidder in the last hour as this is when all the twats who ruin auctions tend to bid.
