Ever sell a car on eBay?
Anyone here ever do that? I'm considering trying to sell my Ford Escape (non-hybrid) on eBay, and wondered if anyone has any advice, pointers, etc. about it. I've purchased stuff there, but never sold anything.
Also, anyone have any ideas about how to sell a car privately these days? I have tried posting it on carsdirect.com and cars.com, and taking an ad in my local daily paper, but have gotten NO (legitimate) inquiries in 3 weeks (I got one scam offer from the carsdirect posting, someone who wanted to send me a "cashiers check" for $20,000 and have me refund the difference between that and the purchase price to them... duh! oldest trick in the book!). The asking price is below KBB (and $3,000 less than dealers are asking for a similar vehicle, with similar mileage, etc.), and the car's in great shape. What am I doing wrong? Or do people just not buy cars from individuals anymore?
