Listing a boat for sale, what sites?

[ozlongboarder]

I'm selling my Bertram 25 runabout. I have listed it on boatpoint, boatsales and boatsonline. I have also put an add up on Ausfish : http://www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/cla...em&itemid=1003

Any other sites I should list it on?

Gumtree - I got most of my hits from there, but be wary of scammers. They're easy to identify though, they'll be SMS messages asking YOU to email THEM.

Facebook - Every town tends to have multiple buy/sell groups operating via facebook. Hervey Bay, a small town, has nearly a dozen with member sizes ranging from a couple of hundred to many thousands.. Mine sold via this method.

Trading post - Less useful than it used to be, but still worth placing an advertisement in there.

I just sold my Cruise Craft a couple of months ago. I listed it on Boatsales, Trading Post, Gumtree & Ausfish.
Boatsales (Carsales), which is the same company as Boatpoint, was the most expensive at over $100? (can't remember exactly). Trading post was about $40 but they offer your money back if not sold in 4 weeks. Gumtree & Ausfish are free.
If you list on Boatsales, I'm pretty sure they also list it on Boatpoint as part of the deal. All sites (bar Ausfish) attracted both genuine & scam enquiries. I found that Gumtree tended to attract people "on a budget" with stupid offers. I ended up selling it through Boatsales.

Yes Matt, my baby is gone... it was a sad day for me, leaving me feeling empty & lost.
Never fear though, because I have a new boat in my sights!
