In simple terms, why not? As long as you do not give out any personal information in your ad, it is safe. You take the calls; you decide who you want to meet. The ball is always in your court.
Prior to the advent of the internet, the options were limited for car sellers. You could park your car in your driveway with a For Sale sign on it, or you could put a sign on the back window and drive it around and hope for the best.
Those with a little more change in their pockets could call the local newspaper and place an ad in Sunday’s paper. This took some pre-planning because the deadline was usually Wednesday afternoon at 5:00 pm. Also, it took skill to add up the characters of the words so you didn’t over-spend your budget on another line of copy.
You also could have used your old’ car toward the down payment of your newer car, if you were buying one. Or you could have sold it outright to the dealer which would have gotten you about the same money or less as if you had taken it to a pawn shop.
The internet has opened up wonderful opportunities for sellers. The online advertisements do not limit you to three or four lines of text. You can write sonnets about your vehicle if that is what you want to do. You can give details of your car’s condition, maintenance records, driving history and any other pertinent information a buyer might want to know.
You will include photos of the car in your ad, of course, but you can still wax ecstatic over the car’s appearance. You will also need to include the selling price, mileage and your contact information.
Most sites will allow at least one picture, others more. Before you take your photos, make sure your car is sparkling clean. Take the picture in sunlight and from several angles if you are allowed more than one photograph.
You do not have to concern yourself with publishing deadlines. You can download your ad in the morning and receive calls immediately. You may sell your car before your newspaper ad would have even run.
The old-fashioned classified ads in the newspaper can be expensive especially if you give a lot of detail. On-line card ads are relatively inexpensive and give you plenty of room to describe your car?and some sites run them for free. And there are several sites who guarantee a sale or your money back; while others say they will keep running your ad until your car sells.
Do some homework before selecting the site (or sites) you want to use. Go online yourself and look for a car similar to yours, just to see how easy it is to navigate that particular site. Also, ask your friends and family if they have ever used any of the selling sites. Word of mouth is the best recommendation.
