  • Dealer Asks Do Cars Sell On eBay Motors?

    by Doc / 542 Views

    Hello I'm wondering how other vehicle sellers are doing in terms of ebay? I have never had so many non paying buyers. It was always bad but lately it takes an average of 3 buyers before someone actually pays. I will no longer even accept and offer until I'm paid because PayPal gives them their deposits back and I'm stuck with hundreds in relist fees. One month was 2200 in fees.

    prospective seller asks do cars still sell on ebay

    I have enough inventory I could get a motors subscription for a flat monthly fee but I just wonder if ebay is worth it any more. About 8 years ago I managed an account for a large dealership and everything I listed sold and sold fast. I really have stopped listing vehicles on ebay and the website traffic is declining too.

  • eBay Motors Vehicles Non Binding Bid Policy

    Non Binding Bids Policy: In most product categories on eBay, when you place a bid in an auction it's considered binding – when you win an auction, you're agreeing to complete the purchase. However, there are some categories where bids don't create a formal contract between the buyer and seller.

    For motor vehicles and real estate, bids are considered non-binding. When you bid on an item in these categories, you're expressing a strong interest in buying the seller's item, but no formal purchase contract is created if you're the winning bidder.

    A non-binding bid is a bid that shows a buyer's interest in purchasing an item, but it doesn't create a formal contract between the buyer and the seller. All bids made in the Real Estate and eBay Motors vehicles categories are considered non-binding.

    In this video Doc talks about a Volkswagen Bus that brought a whopping $35,100 bid to a deadbeat bidder. He also talks about a seller that sued a husband and wife who were government employees. He successfully garnished their paychecks. This was many years ago, so don't consider doing it again.
