Ebay CD22 for sale........BEAUTIFUL!!!

Post by ronkberg »

This looks like a great deal on a beautiful '81 CD22. I have no knowledge about the boat just worth a look for anyone in the market.

didn't sell - i am not sure ebay is a great place to sell a boat - IMHO - it's for bottom feeders...

i used to sell camera eqpt on ebay, and I found it a waste of time - had better luck and prices with Craigslist.

My experience with eBay is quite different. I have bought and sold expensive cameras, motorcycles, and boat parts successfully. I believe that this 22 did not sell because the seller had a hidden reserve (minimum). Buyers, understandably, don't like bidding when they do not know the minimum that will be accepted.
Sellers using a straight forward approach of stating their minimum price are much more successful.
Craigslist does have its benefits which include free listings and localized listings which are helpful when selling items not conducive to shipping.

That 22 looked like a nice boat but we have no idea what his minimum asking price was.
