Well, although, I haven't seen it, so based purely on the above, seems a very fair price and a good buy for someone  ;-)up

Well I was pushing my buggy down the road the other day (the brakes had failed) and two people stopped me asking how much to buy it :D

Or eBay?

Theres a bloke over the other side looking for a buggy, I'll try and point him this way, but they can be a bit funny with the links, so I'll pm him.

Was going to say there's a guy looking for a buggy over there, was even swayed to offer him mine for the right money! :D

dont try and sell it on ebay,try it in the upper class classic press.go where the money is.or try a classic auction(with a reserve).the only slight thing that goes against it is the wheels,not shiney enough.slot mags n centrelines realy do make a buggy

eBay is ok'ish - at least you get a bigger market view. But there are an awful lot of buggies on there at the moment.

Pete is spot on, try to target upper end market with classics etc. certainly the way to go. More likely to get an over seas buyer (where a lot of buggies are going these days) plus potential buyers may not be familiar with the sort of prices we may think they sell for at the lower end  ;)

I think the wheels look awesome,very nice buggy,stick it on ebay with a good description and nice detailed pics,start the bids at 99 p and put a fixed reserve at what you would take bottom line,run for 5 days....too many people are being greedy at the moment because of the weather it should fly......good luck
