Selling my Maxima on Craigslist
Ever thought about selling you stored items over the internet? My votes goes to craigslist. About a week ago I decided to try and get rid of my broke down nissan maxima. My car overheated on the freeway and there was no shoulder to pull off on. By the time I found somewhere to pull off the engine was fried. So whats left is a 95 maxima that will cost about the same amount to fix as it would just to buy another one. I decided to go ahead and throw it on craigslist at $600. I did find a used engine on car-parts.com for about $600. I figured some mechanic could install a used engine and come out ahead. Within 30 minutes of listing it I had calls. The first call was a junkyard wanting to tow it out of my driveway for $500. In no hurry I decided to refuse the offer just to see if I could get the full price. Since then, I’ve had numerous bites but no takers. As it still sits in my yard, I’m thinking I should of just let it go for the $500. I’ll probably drop the price on Craigslist tomorrow and see what happens.
