Flying Wheels
Hi Craig, I sell cars for friends and family out of my driveway so they don't lose money on trade in. I hate marketplace but unfortunately it's where people look so I am forced to list the there. However I have found something that helps to comb through the crap you mentioned in this video. I have found people don't read the description and only scroll through the pictures. I take amazing photos of the vehicles I sell so the first one always stands out the second picture I now have a PDF photo saying the price and reasonable offers considered by serious buyers in person only. Online offers of any kind will not be considered and will be ignored. It has practically eliminated the problems for me.
Oh great idea 💡
👌
Smart. I like it. I bet there was a lot of people who do not read the description 😂
Good ideas
I sell cars online too but because you don’t accept offers through text, would you consider it a waste of your time when people come to look at the car in person and only offers an amount you’re not willing to take?
During 25 years of being a used car dealer I never once let a "sold" car be driven. Craig just demonstrated why.
Yeah I agree, especially when it's personal use. One deposit is down, park it up and light prep for buyer. But each to their own I guess 😜
I wonder if his online dealer school has a section on how not to drive something that has a deposit.
My dad brought a used car year's ago it was a old banger £1000 probably twice that now with inflation he paid for it ( I think in full ) and when he picked it up it had a extra 210 miles on there attitude was it has 130000 miles on it so what he said it was sold you did this on my car
I think that crash was before it got sold.
This is a deal breaker for me. If I have a deposit down, you touch that car for cleaning only. I'll watch your videos but wouldn't recommend you as a dealer.
Omg I died laughing watching you go through all the offers 💀💀💀💀
I sold on marketplace for years and stopped a couple years ago because of what you just showed 😂
Solution? State in ad:
"ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE proof of valid DL / current insurance and funds / pre-approved loan / or confirmation through our lenders to test drive, no exceptions period" what's your thoughts Craig? Anyone?
@@alexisstarsmith1477 that doesn’t work. People don’t read.
@@DunnDifferent oh cheezo your right! 🙀idiots🙀
People don't care to read the descriptions
@@alexisstarsmith1477 The problem is people don't read the ads. I used to sell cars on FB Marketplace (and Craigslist) and had lengthy ads that fully described the vehicle along with any damage/defects. I also took pictures of any damage. If I had a nickle for every person that asked if there was any damage, I'd be a millionaire.
You should make a compilation of the worst and funniest Facebook conversations, I would definitely enjoy it
Yes!
I'd watch that!
Car sales especially on market place is brutal. Everyone is an expert and everyone has a friend who bought one for cheaper. It’s a joke. Kudos to you for handling it so well. I’ll do a few flips a year for some passive income but definitely not quitting my day job anytime soon
Everyone’s got a Buddy 😂
I had a 99 boxter, did a lot of work on it. Love that car so much!
I thought you said you NEVER take deposits?!?
You are a great wheeler dealer. Your operating style is the best. I am a loyal fan. Take care.
FB Marketplace is a supreme PITA when selling almost anything. The buyers with the stupid questions, the low-ball offers and frankly, the threats and the sellers with the unreasonable expectations just do not make it worth it for me. Good video.
I woulda painted the entire front bumper. Not much more work and it would have looked much better. I think that's taking care of the customer more than blending.
Once I forgot to use the parking brake on my 370Z. By chance I went to my garage and the car was right by the garage door. If anyone would to open the garage door, it would have scratched the bumper at the least. I quickly move it and engaged the parking brake - a must on every manual.
You need to hire someone just to go thru the bad offers and send you the valid offers only. Someone who is desensitized to the pin pricks. Someone who can take the flames, the insults, the name calling, the low balls, etc. Then you'll only hear of the best offers. It could be someone working remotely. Send them a few bucks.
I’d do it
The messages brought back ptsd when I sold my infinity. My goodness lol.
Sharing the Urus motor? I didn’t see the vehicle in the teaser but I’ll guess the Audi RS because there are plenty of used Audi around.
I get the same here in the UK over cars like these to the point were I don’t answer emails anymore as I have found the serious buyers will always phone and talk to you in person, so know how you feel..
Just a suggestion when parking a manual transmission car with or without a hand brake or e brake always leave the car in second gear or fourth gear. The stick will never pop into neutral..
Market place is 80% salvage cars and 90% “is this available”… 10% are actually willing to buy a car and not give stupid offers.
Hey Craig, thanks for the vid today. Sold a truck today on market place and man it was wild dealing with it. Thanks for the awesome content always and showing us even you an experience salesman becomes frustrated. Happy holidays.
Excellent as always Craig 👊🏼
If he wrapped a z around a telephone pole, he wouldn’t be walking away…maybe carted away and buried somewhere a couple days later.
When I listed my 92 Nissan Sentra for $1,500 on MP I had one person in particular ask if I would take welfare checks as payment.
I recently sold a 21 year year old motorcycle on Craigslist. It ran well and the price was fair. I mentioned in the ad that I didn't want it anymore because I now only ride my much newer motorcycle. I had a couple people ask me if I could give them the bike for free since I already had another one. I also had a couple of people that wanted to set up a payment plan with me (and the total payments was still less than my asking price). I ended up selling the bike to a middle-aged man who bought it for his son. Since the price was more than fair, he didn't try negotiating. He gave me a check, we went to his bank, and I got the cash. Why can't everyone be like that?
Craig,
Can you do a "shorts" series with all the funny/ridiculous conversations you have with tire-kickers? Lol
Will do
totally agree. trying to sell a 2016 low mileage wrangler unlimited in the family. i know the market. the stupid offers keep rolling in. finally agreed to sell to a dealer in pa, for less than i was hoping, but a fair price. unfortunately, the owner passed away before the bank released the pay off, so we have to wait for power of attorney. luckily, it seems the dealer is willing to wait due to the condition of the vehicle. if i get interested in a car on fb, ill try to haggle a little, but some of these clowns you get are rediculous!!
I thought you didn’t take deposits or checks? Your Facebook Marketplace experience is exactly what I had selling a bunch of stuff on there while moving. It’s absolutely maddening and your needle prick analogy is perfect!
Mate. Love your attitude . I’m in Australia and I was a flipper a few years ago and used to sell cars for mates before marketplace. I’m now renting cars and buy and sell a bit. I can’t do marketplace for exactly why you’ve just done through. Now all my surplus goes to auction. Not only does it remove the need for me to be a dealer here legally, but it removes the agro that marketplace idiots cause. These jokers need to be told.
Facebook is a joke to sell things. I sold a Ducati Panigale R and had an idiot trying to offer 9k for it. I ended up selling it for asking price of 17.5k. Book was 21k, that Facebook guy kept trying to negotiate his last offer was 12k which was below trade price that a dealer would offer. He was rude to the very end saying it wasn't worth my asking. I blocked him after letting him know it sold for asking and to stop wasting people's time.
Craig, wait you sold the Audi S4? I have been waiting and waiting to see it up for sale on your website? And it's gone? I am not saying I would have definitely bought it, but I was intrigued. Shame.
Still working on it
Your FB Marketplace schtick was hilarious. Let me know if you need someone to filter those responses for you. Gratis. I'm retired in Florida and bored. Great video - thanks!
After a while I posted on marketplace, i just quit responding to anything on Facebook unless it was a serious reply. I listed below what dealers was selling for.
Hopefully modified exhaust systems will fade away like custom chopper motorcycles. They both suck. Don't care how much you spend, or how good "you think" it sounds.
NO COMMENT 🙄
Marketplace sucks.
When they ask the lowest price
I tell them FREE happy ? Then come and take it and give them fake address.
The car you have purchased that shares an engine with the Lamborghini urus is an Audi s6 great purchase
I completely stopped replying to the “is this available” folks. I figure if you can’t take the time to personalize your message you’re not really interested.
I'm surprised that you guys in USA still have checks, we don't have them, haven't seen them for 15 years
NZ
I love looking at your channel as we're pretty much doing the same over there and we bought about 2 months ago also a 370z that we've got to sell pretty quick at a good price too. You're right they start to be pretty rare in an unmodified condition and those are really good values on the market right now.
A lot you said in your videos are pretty common with us even being in another part of the world and this is very funny actually ;)
Did you get an RSQ8 Or RS6 finally for winter driving? Gen Z anti theft…lol. My 17 y/o drives a 94’ Miata 5 speed. Seems like Gen Z is liking manual shift more and more.
When they ask me “what’s the lowest you’ll take?” I respond with “the lowest I’ll take is the best offer I get” …why would I take less than the best offer I get?
If it’s an rsQ8 I’ve been searching. I’d love to buy a bit over wholesale 😅. Loved the marketplace segment! Very funny
Auction Tips- we do a "tag team" approach to pre-auction. Much quicker & easier, one hooks OB2 Scanner, other checks tires, wheels. etc, One starts engine guns engine, other is looking under hood at engine same time, and exhaust, brake lights, and fluids etc.. All options and windows checked out, total time 5-8 min per vehicle. Alone, a 30pt inspection would take 20-30min. Or go visit a new car dealer, for all his over 100k trade-ins, no auction needed. Brandon Ford, Tampa, will not keep any trade-ins over the 3yr/36k factory warranty, everything else is auctioned.
Audi Q7 or a Porshe Cayenne......I'm thinking Cayenne...NICE
The thing I really like about the 370z, is that the interior shares the upmarket fitment of the R35 Skyline. Where as the 350z’s are shabby looking IMO. The 370 is a really nice improvement in overall fit and finish quality from the 350.
Wow what a pile of sheet that guy was to have a baby fit and claim he would ruin your car and tell you it's on you and then throw a fit on top of it.
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S. That is what you are getting that has the same engine as the Lamborghini Urus.
If I may ask, why do you wait so long before releasing your videos? Thanks, love your posts!
Great Video! I do believe the car with the same engine is a Audi RS Q8
Everybody wants to think they are buyers until they have to put real money where their mouth is.
Two thoughts: 1) The Boxster is a fantastic car to drive, regardless of which motor it has. Even the tiptronic transmission version is fun to drive.
2) That particular motor in this one sounds exactly like the motor in our Sienna minivan. Not especially thrilling unless you're into that sort of thing. Smooth, yes. Great sounding... meh not so much.
I enjoy your perspective.
100% agree, I sell on FB, but I have to put up so much crap on there. Why are people such idiots on there.
My guess for the Urus is that it's a Cayenne. Definitely a Porsche Cayenne.
You're awesome by sharing it with us!!!
I am 50. I'm fine with showing you proof of insurance. You should vet your customers, but I have walked off of lots with bank checks because of being grilled about my finances. I'm not a buyer because I'm in Tennessee, and not in the market. But never fall in love every car has identical cousins out there.
I commented early. after getting to the end I realized you are swimming in a pool of stupid, I apologize.
FB Marketplace is a disaster for both selling and buying. Ever since CL started to charge for their listings, FB seems to be where people list. Their search and filters are useless as is their recommended results. Communication is difficult at best. Then every idiot with a phone or keyboard feels empowered to weigh-in on your item, its condition, price, etc. I feel for you Craig. Any profession where you have to deal with the public is generally awful now days.
I sell most my cars on fb marketplace. Craig if you don’t put FIRM in the ad, you’re opening yourself to these ridiculous offers. Put in the ad that you do not respond to offers below asking price. That will save you plenty of hassle. 👍
Awesome video. FB marketplace is such a challenge and I enjoyed you calling out the myriad of time-wasters.
2020 Audi RS Q8 4.0l V8
Did you let the buy know about the damage that was done or was it part of hidden damage that buyers are no aware of?
It's tough selling a car like that right now. It's winter so not as many people would want to have fun with it now. But at the same time it's good to sell it before car prices start dropping
It’s such a stupid phenomenon. As if it’s never getting warm out again
I'm in West Texas. I sell several Corvettes every year, no matter the season.
@@davidr6865 yea it is honestly, but it goes to show most people don't completely buy with logic. Most of it is emotional
Why are you driving someone else's car, that's very stupid
If someone told me "I'll come up from New York.." I would add another 5k to the price just to deal with the BS.
Audi Q7 or Q8 is what he got possibly a Porsche Cayenne
Hey Craig, love your videos, I have a question though. How many cars does your dealership usually sell monthly or yearly? I'm looking into starting my own dealership with my brother here soon and your videos help a lot!! Thank you
I blame all the "flipper" tv shows for how people attempt to negotiate now. And it's on literally everything now, not just cars. Being a reseller of anything is a pain in the ass now.
I think the Audi q8 and Porsche Cayenne have the same engine as the urus but toned down. it could also be an rs6 but I doubt it
I said sq8 forgot all about the Porsche ! But maybe some crashed shit
You should know better and check the parking brake😅
I have 3 different guessis, Audi RS6 Avant or Porsches Cayenne or Panamera.
Tnx for taking care of the telegram scammers Craig 👍
19:03 i had to laugh at your response! People get so mad and talk crap about your car even though they wanted to buy it!!
I hate fb marketplace everyone lowballs you and get mad when you tell them no like I sold a lot of pc’s and had some that were listed from 500-2k and would always get some weirdo go to one of my expensive ones and be like I can do offer me an old Xbox and $600 cash for a $1800ish and I’ll just say no on this one but I have another one in that budget and send them a photo and specs then they would be like, no that one ain’t good enough I want a highend one. It was always annoying but that’s what marketplace is like
Marketplace sucks! But unfortunately for non dealers it’s the only option where the listing will be viewed. Whenever I list something I will add a picture with the description or a picture stating to read the ad. Smh people only look at pictures and then turn around and ask you the same questions that are answered in the ad. Once I’m annoyed at someone who didn’t read the ad I will just tell them to either read the ad or go waste someone else’s time. It’s tiring dealing with people. Is it still available messages are automatically ignored. If they are really interested they will send another message. Out of 30 messages only one or two will be a someone who really is interested in buying. I generally give out the address of a 7-11 up the street from me and once they say they’re on their way they automatically lose contact and will ignore you if you try to get an eta. Lol I don’t revolve my time around someone who’s on the way because 9 times out of 10 they never show up. For the one who actually shows up I will shoot over with in two mins of them arriving but I won’t stop what I doing just because there’s a high chance that the person disappears from the face of the earth.
my guess is a Porsche Cayenne or an Audi RS of some kind
again bay audi r8 or audi suv whit lambo engine ???
This is an awesome video on fb marketplace bs. 😅
As long as the IMS bearing has been changed you should be ok on the Boxster, if it hasn't, you are in trouble, unless you find someone who doesn't know or care about the hand grenade sitting behind them. Oh and a Q8 though it's detuned in the Audi.
Something you forgot to mention about the dashcam... It's pre-order only. Not available until at least March 2023.
I currently have a 2013 370z, 64k miles, auto but I'm sending it back through copart when I receive my title because I don't want all that headache
normally i just go to look at it at first then i will show up the next day with the cash and Insurance with me if i am buying it 100% some dealers need a appointment to test drive
Sad AF for the Talon - might be hard to find parts!
He said it was a parts car so he doesn't care he got lucky
Price is fair for the mileage and year make and model
So you took a cheque and let them drive away without clearing it??
My guess is between an Audi Q8 or a Cayenne GTS
Oh no not the Talon... I've totally done that before except I forget to shift into park and when I went to get out i fell as the car rolled off ended up in the ditch across the street.. feel your pain 😂 All in all could have been worse good thing it was just a little cosmetic touch ups
It was easier to sell cars on Craigslist because the people on there a little bit more serious and professional. Facebook marketplace puts you with the lowest common denominator and it's just a waste of time. Now I don't sell cars, only sold like a couple in my life, but when people come to me in the first thing they say is a lower offer, I reply back with the higher offer. It always makes people questioned why would I raise the price when it's listed at so and so..... Say because you want it lower and I want more.
I don't care if I'm selling the toaster, I'll only want serious buyers
Craig, am from Canada, it’s next to impossible to buy anything by check up here unless it’s a certified check or money order issued by the bank to guarantee the funds. How do you accept them?
I'm from Canada too and said the same thing. Even certified you have to be careful because the stamps and punches can be faked.
Here the car doesn't leave the lot until the funds are actually in the dealer's bank account.
I am in Canada as well and I once had someone try to give me a fake cashier cheque. The only way I buy or sell with a cashier cheque is both parties go to the bank and the buyer buys the cheque on the spot in front of the seller. The best scenario (which rarely happens) is if both parties use the same bank.
Even certified checks can be denied payment when presented at the bank, at least in Texas. It simply requires buying a bond from an insurance broker. I once paid $50 for a bond to avoid being scammed by another used car dealer and his mechanic shop. I wholesaled the car after the other dealer test drove it. He thought he had a buyer. When his deal fell through he tried to get me to take the car back. I refused so he bounced the draft. He took the car to his mechanic and they contacted me saying I owed $500 . They claimed they had disassembled the tranny and it needed a syncro gear. They told me the put the tranny back together but didn't install the $50 part. I handed them a cashiers check and when it hit my bank my bank refused payment as I had already given them a copy of the bond.
I have a very special way that I handle low Ballers. if they pursue it after I say no and they just basically waste my time. I’ll agree to the lowball price instead of a place to meet and then ghost them. When they text me and ask me where I’m at I say ‘You don’t like it when people waste your time? Crazy, me either’
Dick move and you can't afford to do that if you own a dealership and get a bad reputation. Reputation is everything when you run a used car dealership.
I do that too to the disrepectfully low offers.
Then I guess you spend every day driving around ghosting people lol
Love this video. The nightmares of selling on market place video def on point. Lol
Love the videos man. Been watching your channel for a while and I’m always dumbfounded by the people you deal with 😂 I’d be mad too if someone came at me with the most ignorant offer of all time.
Porsche Panamera or Cayenne as the second vehicle?
Bravo. I’ve sold many cars in my 66 years, going back to print newspaper ads. They always do one of two things. Either a ridiculous lowball swing-for-the-fence like Alfred E. Newman hitting on the prettiest girl at the party, or the “what’s your best price?”. First one’s easy. Second one, i take them to school. “The price is in the ad.” “Yeah, but…”. “There’s no ‘yeah, but’. Here’s how this works. You make an offer, i make a counteroffer, and we either meet somewhere between them or we don’t. But I’m not going to negotiate with myself. That’s stupid.” By that time, most of them have that look toddlers get when you try to explain the Second Law of Thermodynamics. These people are out walking freely among us…
i dont have any issues selling my srt8 jeeps its kinda my thing i like suvs and the srt8 platform ive sold about 7 of them alone and have several more
Is it perhaps a Audi RS Q8?
Q.- do you disclose that you damaged you caused to the bumper and headlight ? What happens if the paint starts to peel off? That small damag itself the value of the car and of course it won’t be on the CARFAX.
Why would a scratch be disclosed or on carfax....
Really enjoyed this one. Great insight into what it takes to see cars on FB. Keep it up!
Love the videos , and my guess is that you got an Audi RS Q8 …
I know exactly how you feel. I’ve sold several vehicles on FBMP. People suck. Low ballers all day long. I hold firm. Price is the price. I know what I have.
I'll give you 10K cash
"I know what I have" lmao boomer
You should buy a cheap grand marquis to winter daily and hopefully the Audi is a rsQ8
man I'd say you also got lucky the 370z missed the 2g talon as well. thing is sooo damn clean.
Next car is a Audi SQ8 I’ll bet!
"$2500 offer... $6500"... Wow, that's highly insulting... I always get the $1500 or $2k offers with $2500 or $3k cash cars.
Those were pretty rough to hear. Seems everyone thinks their junk is worth gold prices while your "junk" is somehow only silver prices... Only fairness I could give us is that the market is trash right now. Saabs in some states are selling expensive while in others they can't be sold unless it's a stellar deal. Same with BMW and Benz etc
