Drive Yourself to More eBay Auction Money - Selling Cars on eBay
Big ticket items are increasingly popular on eBay, and cars are
probably one of the best examples of this.
In fact, eBay is the largest dealer of used cars in the USA. And
eBay's car sales in the UK is also growing significantly. Every
16 seconds, a car is sold on eBay!
If you're an eBay seller, here's an idea you might like to
consider to make extra cash.
The vast majority of car dealers don't use eBay. They advertise
in the press, usually locally, and their customers likewise
usually live within reach of the car dealer.
What eBay Motors has successfully proved is that people will bid
on cars from owners hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
Why not take your eBay selling expertise, and offer your
services to car dealers in your area?
You know how to create auctions, take and upload photos, and
manage auctions. The dealers have vehicles which are getting a
tiny fraction of the exposure which eBay could offer.
You might decide to offer this to dealers on a no-cost basis. In
other words, you bear the cost of eBay's listing and selling
fees. The benefit here is that there is no reason why the dealer
shouldn't give you the go-ahead. They could get a sale without
cost to them and no extra effort on their behalf. That's what I
call a no-brainer!
Alternatively, you could pass on the fees to the dealer on the
basis that they would be spending money anyway on press
advertising.
The other commercial arrangements are simple. You could work on
a commission, where you get a percentage of the sale price.
Or
you could agree a price which the dealer will accept for the
sale of the car, and anything you can get above that price is
your profit. This would work particularly well if the dealer has
had a vehicle for some time, and is losing interest in it!
The best types of cars to sell on eBay are those that are
unusual for one reason or another. It might be vintage or
classic vehicles, sports cars or high value models. You're best
to avoid what might be termed "normal" cars.
One of the major potential problems is easily handled. You can't
expect the dealer to cease trying to sell a vehicle which you
have on eBay auction. In every auction you run for a car, you
state that the vehicle is also on sale in other ways, and that
you reserve the right to withdraw it before the end of the
auction period. You will see such statements on many eBay car
auctions.
Incidentally, this idea doesn't have to be limited to cars.
There are big ticket item opportunities in several categories.
You're looking for retail outlets which tend to concentrate on
local advertising and local trade. Examples of this would be
jewelers, antique traders and real estate operations.
With big ticket items, just one or two sales per week could make
a significant difference to you.
Worth thinking about!
