ewan221 Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Well sadly Im selling up - my left knee is knackered and I really need an automatic. Really annoying as I have just spent a good bit on the Zed on tyres, discs and pads and a wheel refurb. Have got the zed advertised on here and pistonheads but wondering if its worthwhile sticking it on ebay. I have bought and sold a few cars on there with no real problems but hearing more and more horror storys. Almost swopped it for a Jag XKR last week but in the end gut feeling was the Jag was just not quite right even though the V8 and supercharger was calling to me lol. So ebay or not ?? Quote
Ricey Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Never had any luck personally. I always find it quite unsettling buying/selling something of that value on ebay........not sure why but I always feel like I'm going to be fleeced. Ebay is also the place where you go to get a bargin.......generally paying the 'right' price seems to be passed by. Quote
adam86 Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I agree with the comments above. See how you go with it on here and pistonheads and then only if you have to put it on ebay. Adam Quote
Lexx Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I'd use autotrader if you are serious about selling. PH gets some interest, but Autotrader gets more. Quote
spursmaddave Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I agree with Ricey (must be feeling ill ) fleabay is the place to get a bargain not to get a good sale Quote
Ricey Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I'd use autotrader if you are serious about selling. PH gets some interest, but Autotrader gets more. Just don't put your email on if you do!...........or else expect bazillions of 419 scams. Quote

Yeah and sadly even your number attracts scammers..... they ring you up, telling you they have people "interested" in your car and for a small fee, they will put you in contact......scam!!! Quote
LRF4N Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Sorry to hear ur letting it go How bout posting a swap for a tiptronic zed? Quote
Sarnie Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Autotrader is pants, never had a sniff from ad's with them....... Quote
ewan221 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Posted March 19, 2011 Sorry to hear ur letting it go How bout posting a swap for a tiptronic zed? Funny you should say that didnt actually realise you could get tiptronic and have just noticed a skyline 350GT for sale would be tempted by one of them Quote
yankeesiter Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Autotrader is pants, never had a sniff from ad's with them....... They are expensive but it's the only place that works for me. It's the Rightmove for selling / buying cars. Quote
UNABASHED Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Pistonheads is free to post advertise, so cars on there will be higher than other places. Autotrader, imo, is crap. Never found a decent car on there, nor have I being able to sell a car there. I have sold a car through ebay though, was really quick and hassle free, got a lot more interest than both other advertisers. Quote
ewan221 Posted March 20, 2011 Author Posted March 20, 2011 Have stuck it on eBay to see what happens Quote
dyla350z Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I found EBay good buying & selling cars ,if its priced right it will sell , sometimes for more than you expect if you get if you get 2-3 people intrested , just put on a reserve on though i find i get more, no reserve 99p start . Quote
