Let me post the pix...I have more pix if anyone is interested and wants to see them.

[Guest PTC Bob]

I will entertain reasonable offers!

[Guest PTC Bob]

Everyone says...Let us know 1st when you want to sell! Well, here it is...any offers?

[Guest PTC Bob]

What is going on? It seems we have a major sell-off!

[Dandy Dave]

Looks like a very nice car. It is even the color that I like but no rag top. If it was only a convertible I would be banging on your door. Dave!

[89REATTAJIM]

Dave, with your expertise and a can opener you could work wonders. You will find one yet.

[Guest PTC Bob]

I listed this on E-Bay. #110202282035...more pix available.

[Guest PTC Bob]

Not much activity on E-Bay...what am I doing wrong?

[Dandy Dave]

I do not think that you are doing anything wrong. I see you do have a feed back of 0 so I would assum that you have never done any business on eBay before. Some buyers will be wary of first time sellers with no feed back. It is better to buy, or sell a number of small items to get a good feed back rating before selling a "Big Item". Most of the time everyone waits until the last minute to bid. The best thing that you can do is to type in "Reatta" in the "search" space and see what other car similar to yours in condition and miles are selling for. I see you have been asked a lot of questions and that is activity. Hang on for the last hour or even the last few minutes! The first item I ever sold was a 1941 Packard and the high bidder did not pay. I did sell it to the under bidder although it took some time to clear things up with the first bidder. Since then I have a positive feed back of over 300. Good luck with her mate! Dave!

Hi Bob,

I buy and sell on eBay quite often. I have purchased a vehicle of eBay that was over $10,000 and sold a boat for over $5000 so I have been on both sides of the fence.There are some things I see that are hurting the sale of your car. First, this is a bad time of year to sell cars on eBay. Shoppers are looking for Toys, clothes and other Christmas gifts.

The number one thing hurting you in selling your car is that you have zero feedback. Buyers on eBay are motivated more by them trusting the seller than anything else when it comes to big ticket items like vehicles. They want to know that you have a good track record and have treated buyers fairly in the past. In your case they have no way of knowing how you will treat them after the sale is complete because you have no past history. Whoever buys your car will be someone willing to take a chance in order to get a super deal. Also you should be more willing to work with the buyer by picking him up at the airport only 25 miles away to make him feel like he is getting something for FREE and for heavens sake, throw in the Bulldog license plate.

Other things hurting you are: Having "PayPal account required" at the top of the page scares potential buyers away. Asking for $1000 within 24 hours makes people think you are trying to get too much money up front and throws up a red flag. $500 would be more reasonable for cars in this price range. Requiring the transaction to be completed in 3 days is also unreasonable. Most people can't make arrangements to travel and pick up a vehicle in that time frame. 7 to 10 days in more reasonable. Last but not least is photos. You need more photos. Take them so the buyer feels like he is able to sit in the car and look around. Make him feel he really knows the car before he buys it.

You have a beautiful car. I believe the things mentioned above are keeping it from selling. If it doesn't sell this time. Consider selling a dozen or so other items on eBay to get you some positive feedback and then try again. I think it will make a difference. Good Luck!!

[Guest PTC Bob]

Thanks for the feedback!

The bit about the license plate was a joke! Sorry, I guess my sense of humor didn't come through!

[Guest keith_l]

Hi, I assume you have sold this car?
