Few tips for listing
I prefer to start with an opening bid of basically the least you will take. Some people start with 100 dollars, but you are not going to sell it for that are you? Also then the real people looking at the car will know ok that is the lowest and they can bid from there.
If you put a reserve someone will bid in small amounts to outbid others until reserve is off, then ask you to cancel their bid…ask me how I know!
As others have said pictures, pictures, pictures!
Data plate, engine code etc if a numbers matching big money car
Photos of any original docs you may have
Good contact number
If there is a known area of failure GM rear window trim area include them in your picts
If you have had metal work done, do you have before during and after picts you can list
Detail everything you would look for when purchasing the same car
Try to run for 10 days but have 2 full weekends in there for people who may want to come and see the vehicle.
Don’t be too scared of international buyers, I once had a guy buy one of my motorcycles and shipped it to Australia …the buyer arranged ALL shipping!
Unfortunately there are some , umm, silly people out there with a lot of wonderful opinions they want to share with you via e-bay, just be aware.
Also maybe ask a trusted member of the group for a good, fair price. You may think worth more, or less than actual value to a true buyer.
