Selling a Car on ebay have you done it.

I have listed cars on EBay before.... EBay is pricey when it comes to cars. Your car is not unique, so Craigslist may fare you better. The car listings get expensive, as you probably don't want a "no reserve" ad starting at $1.00...

I would seriously try Craigslist first.

Some general tips for placing the ad:

1. Clean the car really well, including engine
2. Take complete pictures, including all problem areas
3. Take a picture of coin in center of tire to show depth
4. Describe condition acurate, including problem areas
5. List all recent service
6. Include VIN

A comprehensive description and pictures of a clean car will really help you out. As for pricing, I'd put it at 10-20% off of what KBB says Trade-In value with Best Offer included.

Good luck and keep us updated!
