Selling a bike on Ebay
Has anyone here ever done it or know any one that has?
I am debating on whether or not to put my bike up on E-bay before I put it in Cycle Trader and other local papers..
Just looking for some advise as on how to do it, and not put myself into a position to get ****ed over.....

My brother in law sold his 2002 Fat Boy on ebay; it sold in the first day and worked out great. Every buyer is different, but it worked out great for him. The guy was out of state and sent a truck up to crate it and deliver it, etc. I also sold a couple of my scooters on ebay. One sold to a guy from out of state and he actually drove here to pick it up. I believe the vehicle commission is capped, unlike the regular auctions.
Well I found a bike I was interested in.. I talked to the seller a few times over the phone. We worked out a final price that I would pay.
There were already bids on the bike, so I outbid everybody and then he closed the auction right away. I sent him a $200 deposit, he sent back a "receipt" that had some terms on it (don't know how legally binding it was but it was a nice gesture), and then in about 3 weeks (cuz of school) I trucked out to PA to pick it up.
I inspected the bike the best my novice *** could, paid him the difference in a cashier's check, and U-hauled it back.

I'm selling mine on e-bay right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2428758601
Within 24 hours the bid is up to 1,400. Hopefully it keeps climbing. Send me a PM if you want some advice.

My dad sold a customized Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 for $7500 (he was expecting around $5000), and a '86 Honda Magna for $7000 (he was expecting less than $1000 since it wasn't running!)
I'll probably put my Goldwing up on e-bay if it doesn't sell easily locally.
Like someone said...you can sell bags of **** on e-bay and someone will buy it!
