Selling a car on Ebay?

[JR Hartley]

Just wanted some advice, when you sell a car via Ebay do they take a percentage of the final amount or is it different with cars?

[redstu]

10% up to a max of £40 iirc.

Yes they do, but it's capped. £70 ish iirc

Cheers guys, but i've just found that it is probably best to make a classified ad as there is no final fee.

I've just found you get **** all response.

^ do you mean with a classified on eBay? When I do a search for cars or bikes I only search auctions not buy it now or classifieds.

Yes. There's not much point in an auction for anything over about £10k in my view as you get idiots sticking in million pound bids...and I find you get a lot of dreamers.

Nah, list it as an auction but with a slightly higher first bid, mention it's advertised elsewhere for the real price and people will contact you directly to haggle.
