Sold both my cars on eBay. Auctioned both with an optional Buy It Now price. Sold one on the buy it now & the other went well over the reserve.

Actually a quick search of the web soon reveals that all is not rosy in places like WeBuyAnyCar.com Maybe if you have a car they can sell (small, eco-hatchback) then they are okay.Cats are evil.Comment

My cars are often a bit special, so it is generally when they're doing a tour of the car shows when someone will come up and make an offer I find difficult to refuse.
Next level are those that ask the manufacturer and they put us in touch.
I've sold one where someone spotted me on the autobahn and followed me all the way to my next petrol stop to ask if they could buy it...
Which was a bit spooky, but nice.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
