How to sell on the bulletin board Used cars.

There are many ways to sell used cars. In the case of a car, it is sold through an auto shop, where they will take a commission from you. You can use the «trade-in» service to exchange a car with a surcharge for another model. However, for the owner, the best way to put the car up for sale is through message boards. This is due to the fact that other methods involve intermediaries who will charge additional fees. When putting up a used car for sale on a bulletin board, a number of rules must be followed in order to attract buyers.

Make a detailed description of the characteristics of the car.

You must provide as much information as possible in the description. It is necessary to fully describe the technical side, condition, equipment and additional functions. For example, if the car has multimedia that works with the phone, this will make it possible to persuade the buyer to buy a used car. If the car has recently undergone MOT, this is worth mentioning. Attention should be paid to such possible parameters as heated mirrors, the last oil change and spare parts. Do not embellish or understate any details, such as accidents and mileage, as a reasonable buyer will not be inclined to buy a car if the seller is hiding something. Yes, of course, users will often pass by your ad, but when they personally inspect a car, the buyer will trust more. Here is an example of a good ad:

Preparation for sale.

Before putting the car up for sale, it is necessary to carry out maintenance. For example, before a used car exhibition on a bulletin board, it may be necessary to change burnt out light bulbs, process chipped paint on the hood, wash and hang the interior in the proper form. And also polish the body (especially necessary for dark-colored cars), clean the engine. These are fairly inexpensive operations that will increase the chance of a sale.

Photos for evaluation by the buyer of the machine.

It is necessary to take about 15 — 20 photographs that will show the condition of the car. It is necessary to take a photo in excellent light, so that in the end an image with high quality comes out. When viewing ads, the user prefers publications with high quality photos, as a result of which the seller will be contacted more often to discuss the purchase of a car.

Decide on a price

Also, before selling, you need to decide on the price of the car. To do this, you need to study the cost of other cars of the same model as yours. Perhaps you need to lower the price a little if you need to sell faster or, on the contrary, make a markup. It is also worth taking advantage of the life hack that many sales giants use in the price tag. It is not necessary to make a rounded price in conditional 565,000 tenge. Set the price to 564999 tenge. This psychological trick of 99 at the end of the price is used because most people read from left to right, and do not give importance to the last numbers, assuming that they will buy the item for less. A number of studies have shown that rounded price tags result in fewer sales by an average of 33%. You can also increase the chance that someone will buy a car.

Meeting with snacks.

Often, first of all, outbids will write or call you, who will try to bring down the price. Usually, outbids begin to bring down the price of a car at a meeting, inventing or paying attention to minor defects. If you want to keep a decent price, and you don't need an urgent sale with such potential buyers, you shouldn't negotiate. Such buyers are only wasting your time and even in the event of a successful transaction, you will receive less than you could.

Where to make deals.

If you were able to negotiate a deal with the buyer, you need to choose a meeting place. The best option would be a crowded place with cameras to avoid scams. So you can safely sign a sales contract in a fair deal. The buyer will need to register the car after purchase within a certain time period specified by law. If he does not do this, fines will come to your name, since the car will be with state numbers. Having a sales contract in hand, you can prove your innocence in court, but it will take time.
