I emailed this guy 4 times and he never responded to any of them

Also, don't you hate it when you click to enlarge the photos on some ads and they are no bigger? That sucks..

That would certainly seem like a bargain if it's actually a clean car underneath. A rusty project car would run you all of that + once you fixed the panels, etc.

Sweet little car.

His other ad claims he sold the car the same day?.

I personally think $6,500 is $6,000 more than I'd pay for that car. Wait I wouldn't buy it at all!

If he really needs to sell it he should try advertising elsewhere and not complain about no buyers. After all kijiji is a free site to advertise, and most of the time you get what you pay for.
Biggest obstacle when selling a car is....=PRICE!

 

I'm not going to quote anyone here because it takes up too much space but I have two comments to make.

First, the key to selling a car is not price.  It is called supply and demand.  If your buyer doesn't want to pay your price, he doesn't want it bad enough.  Price can be used as a tool to sell a car when you want to but if you have a car someone wants, price is not an obstacle.  The key to selling a car is making it available to as many people as possible.  Someone will pay the price, you need to find them.

Second, the example of someone offering 50% and then having 90% of the sellers except the offer is only true when you are buying a car no one else wants (supply & demand).  The guy who admits he is cheap, is not making offers on cars that are in demand.  He is buying cars that very few other people want (i.e. old Fleetwood).  He feels that he has buying power because he can walk away but actually it is the seller that has the power.  He is using the price as a tool to sell something that is not a hot item.  He lets the buyer feel like he is submitting to his buying power.  That makes for a happy buyer and a happier seller $$$.
