question about selling a car on ebay

Not sure if I posted this in the correct forum,

But has anyone ever had a car shipped? I wanted to sell my trans am on ebay, and wanted to have shipping as an option. What is the best way to go about this?

thanks in advance!

Don

Re: question about selling a car on ebay

I have sold on E-bay and I would recommend letting the buyer arrange shipping. There are too many variables in shipping costs to nail down a good figure. Any serious bidder, will handle the pickup themselves. I sold my Chevelle on E-bay last year and the buyer handled his own shipping. Less headache for you. On a side note, I had my SS on there a few weeks ago and had a bunch of scam offers and tire kickers bustin my b**ls with bogus offers. Be wary, many of the people bidding on the F-bodies on E-bay the last few weeks seem to be bidding on multiple cars but buying none. Good luck with it. Hope you have better luck than I did.

Thanks for the input! I think i'll try autotrader first, and if I put it on ebay, I'll note pickup only.

THanks!

My 87 Camaro RS sold on Ebay, but like mentioned above... I was never contacted or paid. Kinda pisses me off.
