Hey guys I've been trying to sell my Mom's car for almost the whole winter. What I dont get is at first I thought the car would sell within a few weeks for sure. Its a year 2000 with low kms, fully loaded and its in immaculate shape and its a good color. Its been dealer maintained and we are asking consideribly less than the suggested used price for it and what other people are asking for similar cars.
I've advertised in the Herald, on Beyond, Auto Trader and Bargain Finder and I have had barely any calls or inquiries about the car let alone people coming to see it. The only person I thought was really interested in the car lowballed me by $4000 and wouldnt budge on his offer. So what I dont get is if I'm doing something wrong, or if theres a better place to advertise or if selling a car is just going to be this tough.
Any tips/suggestions would be appriciated
I didnt put the actual car down because I didnt want this to get moved to the marketplace by moderators.
