Wooie Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 There was discussion on here recently that included the pros and cons of using Ebay Classifieds. Well i have just ( yesterday ) experienced the " Classified " way of selling. I had a Ifor Williams Ramp / Door combination trailer for sale and i thought i`d try Ebay. I set up the listing for an auction but as i was getting to the end i saw how much the fees were going to be !! After i`d picked myself up from the floor and had a quick whiff of oxygen......lol....... i remembered a thread that discussed Auctions and Classified adverts. So i decided to try the Classified and was very surprised that it would only cost £14.99 for a 28 day listing. I wasn`t in a panic to sell so i thought i`d give it a try. Right, this is how it went, 3.00 pm i started the advert, by 4.00 pm i`d had 11 offers and by 5.00 pm it had sold for the full asking price. Some might say that £14.99 for 2 hours advertising is expensive, but i don`t care, i`m still almost in a state of shock at how quick everything happened and i`m so glad i didn`t go down the auction route and then end up with high selling fees. So in a way this is a " Thank You " to those who brought to my attention the " Classified " way of selling. It is something i will probably use in the future. Regards. Graham.

BGD Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Well done! I reckon ebay is just the best place for buying almost anything now. ('Course, there's now the argument that, if the trailer sold that fast, you actually should have asked quite a bit more for it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
