Suburb listing

published

I do not understand what is so hard about listing the suburb, it is waste of everybodys time if you cannot list the suburb. Had a look at a car at a dealer the other day and the price listed on car sales was different to what was presented at the dealership. Very disappointed in using car sales.

CarSales Hidden Charges

published

Sent some enquiries to dealers selling the type of car I wanted as I wanted to trade in my current one.
Was shocked to learn that each dealer I contacted was charged $45 for my enquiry.
Because CarSales doesnt list the exact suburb where the car is or tell you who the dealer is some of my enquiries were a waste of my time and their money.
CarSales enquiries to private sellers are free plus the private ads list the sellers name and location.
Im not a fan of car dealers but this sounds like a rip off to me.
I did end up with a car from a dealer - that I found on Gumtree...

Rip off fees & no help with selling

published

Firstly I put my photos up & Carsales put blurring over the whole front of my car (not just the plate) then they did nothing to help me sell it. They add great price tags on other cars in the same category as mine, that are more expensive than mine, with more kms than mine yet I dont get a tag on my add which is actually the best value in its category & $1000-$4000 cheaper than the competition. I cant see the value for my $68 I spent on this add.

Not as good as it once found it.

published

I received no real enquiries other than online scammers and predatory auction yards despite sensible and realistic pricing. My previous experience selling on this platform several years ago was good. However, my thoughts now are that they may have lost their market share of the buyers to other free online selling platforms such as gumtree. I complained to their customer service and was told that I needed to spend additional funds to upgrade my listing as this was my only avenue to rectify the poor response to my ad. That is not helpful.

Sold real quick!

Great result with the ute selling the next day after advertising.
Its been a few years since I last sold a car on Carsales and the site has definitely improved with various options on presentations and layout.
Cheers

Sold my car through carsales.com.au

published

Listed my car on carsales.com.au, carsguide.com.au & Autotrader and Gumtree, but got all replies through carsales.com.au and none though the others. Used their messaging service exclusively and sold my car sucessfully after inspection . Was contacted by several dealer companies but they were only offering peanuts.

Successfully sold

At the start I had no real view as to what the vehicle should be priced at. My initial price was too high, and Carsales feedback resulted in an immediate price adjustment.. With very few early responses I progressively revised the price until I got a lot of interest. Then success. Thank you.

Terrific Site To Use

published

Carsales.com.au is a terrific site for selling motor vehicles. This is the second vehicle I have sold on here in the last 12 months and the customer service from the carsales team is fantastic.
I would highly recommend to my family and friends to sell their cars on this site.

Easy to place the add. Within 10 mins I had my first call and he was the eventual buyer. Over the day I had 12 genuine buyers. Very pleased with the result. Sold the car hours after I placed the add.

Great Car Sales Venue

Car Sales was a great venue on which to advertise my car. It was also very cost effective.
It was very effective at advertising the car and very easy to use.
I will use Car Sales again.

Would never go past this site to sell another car.

published

We purchased our replacement car through Carsales.com.au so decided use them to sell the old one. The car sold incredibly quickly and we had quite a few genuine enquiries. The website is very professional and easy to use, both transactions were incredibly smooth with no problems. I highly recommend this site.

Good site but FB marketplace is better

published

I paid $68 for my ad on the site and got zero inspections after two weeks while FB marketplace had over 20 enquiries and many inspections. Needless to say I sold my car to a person through FB not carsales.com. Once upon a time coming on this site to purchase cars is the way to go, but reality is if you selling a cheap car that's under 10k, just use FB you prob will get more enquiries. I wish I never wasted my money on here. However good website though.

The only way to sell your car !

published

I have had great success selling my cars over may years using Carsales. Because you can attach a heap of photos potential buyers know what the car looks like before they come out and see it. Usually the first person to see it purchases my vehicles.

Ease of use.

published

The carsales site is easy to use & once your ad is set up it's there until it is sold. You can easily edit & update details and the weekly stats email is excellent to keep you up with how things are going. We are not very computer literate but found it very easy to set up and are very happy with all communications & how our ad was managed.

Hey Donna, when your ad is saved it appears as "unavailable" to those that saved it. They can't get in touch unless they've already contacted you via the enquiry form or phone.

Hopefully that helps but if you do still have any questions, our customer service team are available for a chat on 13 72 53 if you need :) -Kate
