Some one please buy my pickup!

This is for my 52 Mitsubishi L200 pickup.
I've had it for sale on here a load of times but no one has bitten. It has to go, price reduced accordingly.
I will take £2200 which is less than "We Buy Any Car" have offered me. If I have to sell it to them I will die a little inside.

If I had the cash I'd buy it, looks a real bargain. Good tyres too I have those on my landy and they last ages even in town.

Like others have said, would suit the job nicely but just not the right time.

I will have to find a tow bar for the scooby instead.

I haven't put it on ebay yet, If it doesn't go in the next couple of days I will put it on.
I'm just reluctant because of the horror stories of paypal etc.

Liam,
If you're discerning as to whom you sell to on ebay, you're unlikely to have a problem. Over 10 years, I've over 300 deals on ebay, probably 200 involving Paypal: no problem.

I know ebay don't like 'cash deals only', but there are a many such ad's on there stipulating just that. You could go down that route. Use the fact that you're undercutting 'webuy' to your advantage in the advert.

I know what you mean about "wethieveanycar.com". I contacted a seller with a 2005, 50k miler, near mint Fiat Barchetta around the time I ordered my MK a couple of years back. The car was advertised at 3,500 (utter bargain). I rang the guy in UK to offer him 3k unseen. He said he'd just taken webuyanycar's offer of 2,300 a few hours earlier as he was desperate for the cash. (If he could have hung on, the car would've made 4k)

Good luck with your sale.

PS My current car (Subaru Tribeca) was bought via ebay, (cash) as was a previous convertible Beemer, my quad etc.

Bob.

I'm not at home at the moment so can't really check. This figures should floating about online. Unfortunately no real service history other than the work I've done. I'll write more when I'm back in the house.

I sold 2 cars on eBay last year. Both paid by bank transfer and were hassle free. The first a 55 plate Passat estate sold in less than 8 minutes!!! The other a Grand Piccsso sold within 3 days. Both went for a good bit more than webuyanycar offered. I put them on for slightly less than other cars were advertised at and was realistic and not greedy about the asking price. Use the classified advert at a set price, but set to accept offers. That way you pay £14.99 for the advert, but you don't have to pay a percentage of the sale value, as you do with a normal eBay auction.
