Herbert. Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 What's the best way to sell a car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjcc Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Depends what you value more time or money. A site like webuyanycar will almost certainly get you a lower price but be a quick process. They’ll often try knock money off the online quote in person. Advertising online will likely leave you inundated with time wasters and shysters trying to knock the price down even if it’s for sale at a reasonable level. But ultimately you’ll likely end up with more than a webuyanycar type deal but significantly more investment in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairdryer Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Don’t try we buy any car.com unless you are desperate for money or are wealthy and don’t mind selling your car for peanuts try gumtree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 If is a wee run about then Gumtree. I've sold a few cars on this with good results. WBAC ways going to give the worst figure if not worst when they actually look at it. Are you trading it in? The garage might better WBAC.

Smack Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Had some luck on Gumtree too. Don't list it for your bottom price or even what you hope to get out of it. Always go higher. You'll still get viewers (assuming you have the time, most folk will do evenings) and it gives you plenty room to negotiate. Some folk genuinely just pitch up and pay the asking price if they've set their heart on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyBatistuta Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Would never sell a car with webuyanycar ever again. It was years ago now, but still pees me off to this day. They gave me a price over the phone, which I accepted. I went to meet them to sell it and they offered hundreds less. I told them that’s not the price agreed on, but they said it was due to depreciation...it was the same week!!! The car was absolutely mint condition with not a mark on it, so just didn’t make sense...chancers.

Robert Lazar Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I don't think there is a best way to sell a car. You will rarely be happy with what you get for it. (unless you've got something that is actually desirable) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people that have had similar experiences. I also know someone that worked for them. He got “let go” due ripping off a customer, turned out it was a “mystery shopper.” Seems management don’t take kindly to such practices as it damages their reputation. As I said earlier, you’re likely to get less than the car is worth but saves a hell of a lot of time if wanting a quick sale. Im pretty sure that’s how they market their business.
