dwainec · 29-11-2011 5:28pm #1

Just wondering have any people tried to sell their cars using them cash for cars people?

or what's the best place to try sell your car privately? im trying to sell my car on adverts and donedeal but to no avail yet and just wondering where else people advertise their cars?

The Donedeal.ie is the most popular website in my opinion,perhaps you can post a link to your ad so more knowledgeable guys will be able to help you out

Expect to be lowballed by the cash for cars crowd, they need to sell them on, pay for advertising, pay for staff etc and make a profit.

Donedeal is the best IMO. I sold a car recently, gave details to a few of those cash for car guys but none got back to me.

Price it right, thats the main thing. See what similar cars are advertising for and come well below that if you really want to shift it.

The car I was selling should have been worth 2800 to 3000 quid, there was one advertised pretty much the same as mine but with 20% less mileage, guy was looking for E2650 so I advertised mine for 2350, sold it for 2200 within 24 hours. Might have gotten more if I held out but for the sake of 2 or 300 quid it wasn't worth the hassle of test pilots and tyre kickers.

This is your donedeal advert?

Put in more photos of the interior, exteriors etc, you can use 10 photos, use them.

I'd also get rid of the stuff about taking laptops / iphones in part exchange, it just sounds really dodgy / desperate to me.

I have no idea what price they should be going at, so I'll leave that up to someone else to let you know if it's priced too high.
