You can always just give it away. When you want me to come pick it up, and do I need to bring some fuses?

:D

Seriously, Auto Trader is a good magazine with good circulation. Not free like Craig's is, but it works.

Most grocery stores have billboards for people to advertise stuff on, just as you walk in the store for free(atleast they do here), you might wanna try putting some up on those if you have any that allow that in your area.

I'm selling a car and have had no luck with it on Craigslist. Wjat are some other possible avenues I should look into.

Thanks.

Have you taken it by Carmax? People often scoff at the idea, but we've had luck there twice. You may be able to make a little more selling it yourself, but to me it's worth a little cash not having to worry about any shenanigans with shady buyers, etc.

yeah, you have nothing to lose with carmax......it's free to try...craigslist people want a deal and usually don't have much cash so if you're selling for more than $4000 it's a hard sell.....why don't you call me though I may buy it...everything has value just be honest with me.

and call me we'll take it to the auction if you really want to get rid of it....

While Carmax will give you a pretty no hassle appraisal and buy your car, they definitely undercut the hell out of the real value you could see. I went to them with my Audi A3 a year and a half ago and the price they offered me was over 3 grand below what I ended up getting when I traded in the vehicle at the local VW dealership (I do understand though that you'll always get the best deal on a trade-in when its done at a place that sells the same make as you are trading in. ).

carmax can make it quick and easy, but remember Carmax has to make a profit, and to do that they can only offer you lowball prices for the convenience. If you want top dollar, you always have to sell it yourself. Trade-in prices are bogus, they can give you an inflated offer for your car because they have super inflated the price of the car you want to buy.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
