should i sell my car on ebay?
 
Ive been thinking about selling my hatch on ebay instead of doing a motor swap since i think i just want something better. Has anyone tried selling a car on ebay? Im wondering if i could get more for it on there as opposed to selling it locally. This way i wont get a bunch of ricer kids driving my car like retards.

by different you better not mean dsm, I'll cut you. I have never sold any cars on ebay, but you seem like you're leaning toward ebay.

already went the dsm route before ;)

Im just thinking ill get more interested people on ebay, its always hard to sell a car with any mods at all. My other idea is to sell the motor seperate and put the shell on ebay, but then shipping it would suck balls

find a stock motor and put that in. I saw an hf motor for $25 in the classifieds, you should check that one out, the obd2-0 wiring shouldn't be too hard. and the clutch is no big deal, just run a cable into the car with a lever labeled "clutch"

i could sell it as a car for handicapped people where all the controls are levers and cables and ---- ;)

hell ya. just levers everywhere "gas" "brake" "clutch" "left turn" "right turn" "up shift" "down shift"

you could sell it as a "car of the future"

I bought a car on ebay. It was a pretty fucked up experience, but I have no regrets.

What about the modded auto trader? ???

Don't let kids just test drive your car. I'm currently selling my Integra and I'm not letting anybody test drive it without a down payment.

I should do that, go test drive a car and do it like I can't drive a stick.

I tried selling mine when it was still boosted, half the ------- world probably saw my car on it... i was gettin calls left and right... You WILL get a lot of dumbass questions and people wondering if the car doesnt sell if you will part out your BOV, seriously people are retarded.

Personally after going through all that ----, it's not worth it... Just put it in the autotrader....

Hey ghetto, most people looking for Hondas on ebay are rather untrustworthy when it comes to following through with buying the car. However ebay is very popular and you will get a lot of hits from it, great place to advertise. Heres the Catch, if you do list it, list it as promotion not as if you actually want the high bidder to buy it, it usually never works out that way, so leave your # and tell everyone who bids to email or youll kick their bid. Specify to the fullest that you dont want any "i think i can get the money" buyers.
You shouldnt have a problem after you do that, if some fucko wins it and doesnt pay, another free listing on ebay for you, plus everyone who emailed you before, might now have the $ for it
good luck
mike
