Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I have a 2006 Lexus RX with about 200,000 miles. It has been a great car and I have been shopping for a newer 2015 Lexus RX to replace it (I will do a separate email about my adventures in shopping for the newer Lexus). Retail value for my old car on Kelly Blue Book and NADA is around $6-7000. The Lexus dealer only wanted to give me $3,500 for my old car. Carmax would give me $4000 ( I must say that dealing with Carmax was very easy--if you don't want to sell a car yourself Carmax is the better way to go.) I decided to try to sell the car myself but I was hesitant to list it on Craigslist. So I listed it on Next-door which is a neighborhood social media site that has classifieds as well as neighborhood news. I felt safer with Next-door because with Next-door you have to register to use it and in order to register you have to prove you live in the neighborhood. Anyway I was contacted by someone through Next-door about the car. ( I was able to find out quite a bit about the person interested in my car, turns out I know their relatives). I was not concerned about the Next-door buyer test driving the car and was not concerned about counterfeit money, etc. I got $6000 for my old car which I am very pleased with.
If someone wants to sell a used car and does not want to use Craigslist I suggest Next-door.
