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

Ebay works well if you do these things:

1. Start the bidding at $1 - Low dollar bidders build up the # of bids and it is easier for someone to get wrapped up and excited about your car
2. Take LOTS of pictures, I mean lots
3. Be totally honest and truthfull about the condition of the car
4. Offer a buy-it-now of a price slightly more than you think it's worth (you'll be surprised!)
5. Take LOTS of pictures, GOOD ONES!!
6. 10 day auction ending on a Sunday or Monday Night around 7-8:30pm Pacific Time
7. Take LOTS of pictures, DETAILED ONES!
8. Recomend any bidder looks at car before bidding, so there won't be any surprises.

GOOD LUCK!!
