I think it is about 30 days for a classified ad, doing it that was in no different but less expensive than Auto Trader and reaches a large audience, plus if you list it in more than one category, Kit cars and Classic cars you stand a much better chance of finding a buyer. I know people complain about Ebay and their charges but where would we be without them?

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). > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Jim Hearne > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2017 9:56 PM > Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: H4 GTX > > > 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. > > Jim > > > > On 04/01/2017 21:31, QM editor wrote: > > Thanks Jim.

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 > > > Mike > > On Wednesday, January 4, 2017 at 10:57:31 AM UTC, QM editor wrote: > No response to my ad in Quantum Mechanics.
