Start with Craigslist, you'll sell it faster for that price. it's a good deal.

agreed, stay away from selling your bike on fleabay.

yes i already started at craigslist but still no bites and my price is 1275 on with a lot of extras on it (check sig below)

why don't you just convert yours? you'll never get what you want for it. Everybody wants something for next to nothing nowdays.

You're price on Craigslist is $1275? I'd go down to 1g and ppl might start going after it I'd take no lower than $750. You'll give someone a good deal even at a bit higher price.

in my area 1275 is completely in the ballpark a lot of 00-02 blaster are $1200-$1300 on there in MN

you'll be damn lucky if you get that $1275, with 450's in the mid/high $2000 range nowadays

yea just a starting price made room for a offer but how can i attract buyers... should i take the reserve off and have a bid war????
what u guys think

 

[Awk08]

nope, don't take off the reserve, wait for a craigslist buyer,
for what you want for it $$, or be prepared for a beat down on ebay

sucker born every minute, wait for yours to swim along
i wouldnt give over $1000 for anything without tons of mods, mainly suspension, or an 03+

I agree.it's hard to sell a complete Quad on eBay . It would have to be someone local considering the cost of shipping. Most of the time you can't go check it out before you buy on eBay . Most people stay away from buying it that way.

It's a tough market right now. Keep in mind just because there are several listed at the price you would like to get, doesn't mean they are selling. You have to make your's stand out. Make sure it's as clean as possible.
