I need advice.
I'm thinking of putting my 911 up for sale and paper ads, internet ads I've done before...so I will do that route again. Anyone have experience selling a car on e-bay? Is it easy? hard? a mess? What are your experiences? Thanks in advance for the help. Bill |

To get back on track for bill, here's another way to look at it. Ebay is cheep advertising... List the car and set a wishful reserve. My local paper charges 70 bucks for a add for three weeks. Ebay is about the same, and if it does not meet the reserve you can relist once for free. Plus we are talking a world wide audience vs the local paper. My point is it can't hurt, and it gives you leads (ie people contacting you asking questions) that could very well turn into a sale after the auction is over. Assuming it did not meet the reserve.
