I can understand Ebay doing that - It's people "avoiding" fees by devious means
that spoil it for the genuine ones; Ebay introduced a 10% fee on postage
charges because sellers were listing items at £0.99 fixed price with £20
postage, thus avoiding final sale fees. The other way to sell a car on Ebay
(rather than pay a 10 % fee) is to go for a fixed price classified ad (I think
it's £14.99), but if it doesn't sell the fee is still payable, rather than no
fees by the other method if no sale - I don't know what time limit applies to
the calssified ad sale, but it's certainly a lot cheaper (if you get a sale).

I think though, that most people reading the club mag will already have a
Quantum (or several).
So really Ebay or similar is probably your best bet to advertise it to a
potential new Quantum owner.
You don't have to put it on an auction, just put it on at a fixed price and
if need be you can reduce the price every week or 2.
Just be careful if you sell it privately and cancel the listing as i believe
Ebay can still charge you sale fees if they think it was sold as a result of
the listing.
Not heard of anyone actually having that happen to them but they did
introduce a rule a few years back saying they could.

Thanks Jim. As mag editor it was easier to put the details there, after all
every member gets a magazine but not every member has internet access and looks
at our site (I assume). I should put the car there as well, as soon as I sort
out the text and some pictures. I really don't want to put this gem on eBay, I
want it to stay in the club. It is a high specification car with 2 litre Mondeo
and many other goodies included, not forgetting the four new tyres I had to put
on after Stoneleigh when I discovered that the rubber had perished on all four
existing tyres. It passed the MOT with those tyres because they were looking
only for tread depth! all that for only £4,000!
If anyone wants the detailed spec just ask and I'll mail them a pdf.
Cheers

No response to my ad in Quantum Mechanics. I am trying to sell my very
special H4 GTX as I don't have room for that as well as my 2+2 and the tin top.
Sadly an ad will have to go on eBay or elsewhere at a silly price. Why
does nobody want such a lovely car? I wish I knew!
Last chance to haggle for the bargain of the century.
