Under estimated
 

I have an 04 Subaru WRX. Just put a new radiator in it. Took it to the Bay Area ( 270-300 miles round trip) and the clutch started slipping. The car has 300,000 miles on it and will need a timing belt soon. Needs brakes and tires. All said I thought I’d throw it out on Facebook marketplace for$900 and see what happens.I stated that this is a project car and listed what it needed. Well, Within ten minutes I got six responses that they wanted it and would come right over. I promised it to the first guy and he is in Reno and was going to come right over to get it. I told him it wasn’t convenient yet. I guess I under priced it.

Sounds under priced.

I always say, it’s easier to go down, than it is to go up.

Way under priced. The car would sell for 5 times that if it's not a rust bucket. You own a cult car

Kick me again Ike😢

You can always change your mind about selling it.

On the plus side, you're getting rid of a car you didn't want to mess with anymore. I've done the same more than once.

Seems like a pretty great deal for someone.

3
hundred
thousand
miles on it.


you priced it what your expectations were, congrats on the fast sale.

Thanks for the kind words. It needs a bunch of work. I’m too old to pull that tranny on my back. I could do it but I don’t want to. It’s been a great car. Hind site I guess.

You are making someone’s day.

So you left some money on the table.

That’s ok.

I sold a suburban for scrap price. It was a nice rig. I am fine with this. I had reasons for not valuing it higher.

Viagra can fix that.

^^^^ This. It's not always about $$$.

I've made some people very happy recently by selling houses for WAY under what I could have gotten for them ..... especially me :)!

I'd recommend a quick Google search for price ranges, then adjust according to condition.

Yeah, my Gen 1 Outback ain't going anywhere. I paid $600 for it.

Then again, everything has a price.

There’s value in having it done and gone without hassle, a million questions, no-show’s, etc. I tend to price things reasonably for that reason. You did well.

I’m not a sales person. I don’t like haggling. My wife on the other hand. Haggle is in her DNA.

$9,000 sounds about right. Good for you and good for the buyer.

Edit: I just re-read it $900 :eek:







Haha, just joshin' ya Bugs. Sometimes it's just good to let things go and spend your time and money on the things that are important instead.

It will pay for my new chainsaw….. friggin thing is awesome!!!!

Did ya get that Husky?

Like butter :)?

I sure did. I’ve been using it almost every day cutting large oak rounds. Butter is right!!
