How Not to sell on EBAY
 
I have been selling on EBAY since it started. Not a full time retailer but have found plenty of flea market and other items to get a profit on. About 400 sales so far.

This ad is so poor it is a wonder if it even gets any interest, and forget the bids. Or maybe someone will contact the seller, as they are so excited about getting an 83 911SC they will do a deal outside EBAY..
Have a chuckle with your coffee this morning...

Not likely. I could be wrong, but ....no photos, and 4 hours left.:D

I remember about 10 years ago a guy had a 70 911T on ebay, no pics, three word description, but it was only a few hours from so I rolled the dice, got the car for about $1800 I think. Got there, it wasn't bad, no engine, but it had deep six FUCHS, so it was worth it.

Even a blind hog finds an acorn every now and then.

If I'm blind, what's your excuse?

Slow your roll- I'm not saying you are blind- I'm saying if you look long enough you can stumble on to a deal.

On a side note, I grew up about two blocks from Brumos Atlanta, I remember it well.

It was a cool place- looks strange today being a Kia dealership- the times have changed with the Braves new stadium around the corner.

I moved from Atlanta in 2000 so I probably wouldn't recognize anything. I also worked at Fellini's from the age of 9 all the way until I graduated from GSU, there are some things that are probably the same, like pizza.

We used to go by and drool at the cars at Brumos, it was Oxford Books after Brumo's wasn't it? Or was that RBM?

We used to have some cool stuff- had Peter Gregg's 935 on the showroom for a couple of years- RBM became Oxford Books on Pharr Road when they moved out to Sandy Springs- Fellini's pizza- I sold Clay Harper a black 911 back in the day.

Small world, Clay took me to my first concert, AC/DC at the Omni, probably in that 911. Also, if you want to re-live Peter Gregg's car, the decklid is on our wall.
