FB marketplace... if you end up using it, don't keep messenger on your phone and definitely don't put your number in the description (assuming anybody actually reads the description) if you want any peace in your life. So frustrating. Listed my motorcycle and I've got 10 dudes/day asking if it's still available, what motor it has, does it run OK, despite everything being right there in the description. Ended up selling for $200 off asking price (my actual goal) to the first person who had genuine interest to come out and see it.

The first person that actually follows through and shows up gets a deal because by that point I'm so sick of no-shows and 'what's your bottom dollar' bullshit. That and everyone expects you to meet them half way or deliver....no I'm not driving two hours for you to look at my motorcycle then try to low ball me  With the COVID19 crap I pulled every listing I had under a thousand after getting bitched at because I didn't want to drive a half hour and meet up with someone over a $20 item.

FWIW FB does make it overly complicated to read the description. They just want people to see the title and pictures because words are scary I guess? eBay started doing the same thing a while back.

I tell people if you can't make it to where I am not my problem and never had anyone complain about it. And I've had people drive an hour or more for $20 poo poo I don't get it.

I sold a car on our local version of Craigslist. I thought I double checked but accidentaly left off a 0 on the price. Jesus christ how stupid and ferocious people are. Got like 350 messages in an hour and people used the reg number to look me up and started calling my WIFE by getting my name from the reg number, seeing her registered at the same adress and finding he number. loving retards. Ended up selling the car to a super nice guy who was not very experienced and didn't know for how long he should test drive the car as he was winding it down after a km or so of city driving. I made him drive on the motorway as well and really get a feel for the car as I didn't want him to regret his purchase later. I even gave him $100 off his offer (that was just $100 off my asking price) for being nice.... I'm not good a selling cars...

Chevy Bolt, the hellcats (minus the Jeep), maybe there are a few Fusion Sports/Fiesta/Focus STs left over still considered 'new.' Oh yeah, a three pedal Mustang would be nice. Other than that it's a big no thanks and an even bigger lol at dropping that much on a new car. redgubbinz fucked around with this message at 13:36 on Apr 22, 2020 |

Not here, I've been looking to buy a Miata or Wrangler and it's the same cars that have been up since March. Especially for Wranglers, they are a hot commodity and that market has slowed to a crawl. No new vehicles posted and the same ones available for sale aren't selling.

So you're saying if I want a cheap Miata Florida is the place to look? hmmm. What surprised me is seeing to somewhat high mileage RX-8's sell for more than $3000. One went for $5000.

They're not really that cheap yet, I haven't noticed prices dropping significantly but I'm expecting it to happen soon. They just aren't selling. So far the really good deals I've seen have been automatics so I'm waiting for manual cars to start dropping in price. The Wranglers aren't dropping in price at all, but they hold their value historically well so i don't expect prices to drop for awhile depending on how long this goes on for. I'm waiting for people to start selling off their toys because they need the money, that's where the deals will be had. Miatas and Wranglers fit right in that category.
