Hi,

I've never used auction/for sale sites on the web, any ideas on whether they are any good and if so which one/s are the best. I've got many items to sell including a large number of 4x4 mags.

Thanks

Ray,

I've always found eBay good at www.ebay.com.au or you might look at posting your stuff at the Trader on this site.

Good luck,

JimLead, Follow.....or get out of the way!!

Have used eBay about a dozen times - no problem- but suggest if buying you look at a sellers history (lookout for negative reviews.)
Happy Easter

As others have said check out the persons history first. I wont buy from people without 20 sales, and all positive feedback. Ive bought about 200 things over time off Ebay and Sold.com.au(Im into N scale model trains too), and never been bitten once.

In once sense, Sold is better as not many use it! I scored some Pratus seats(over $1000 at ARB!) for $200 a pair on there, set on Ebay month or 2 earlier went for $700..

Also buying electonics from O/S, some things come with NO WARRANTY... EG digi cameras... So savings arent as good as they seem.

But then other things are fine and 50% of the aussie price.

auction
www.sold.com.au
www.ebay.com.au
www.stuff.com.au - this place is a mess!

forsale
www.tradingpost.com.au
www.offroadimages.com.au(trader section)
www.offroader.com.au(trader section)
