I fucking put my car on there a couple months ago, put a high ass reserve, it never hit the reserve, and now i get notices and collection letters about how i owe ebay $50. That shit pisses me off, now i cant use ebay to buy or sell until i pay them money for nothing.

I have sold several cars on ebay, but where are you getting you don't have to pay to list?? You pay regardless the only time I've known you don't have to pay is if you DON'T sell the car...RELIST it, and THEN it sells... lol someone help me out b/c ebay will be owing me a lot of money if I wasn't supposed to pay!!! maybe im just misunderstanding...

I sold a car on ebay once. Overall it was pretty easy. I got every penny I wanted for it. Shipping it was pretty easy, as for the cost I have no idea, the buyer paid for it. Tow truck showed up one morning, loaded the car on, and it was out of my life forever. I think it was about $70 to list it with full pictures and everything. I think it was well worth it considering I made more then I would have selling it around here. It was very convenient and I would definately do it again if I needed to.

On the other hand, I don't know ebay's technicalities about if the car doesn't sell. I believe you still have to pay for it regardless of whether it sells... except under extenuating circumstances (deadbeat-bidder). Just make sure you're clear in the ad about everything and request that high bidders contact you for approval. You should be alright if you're careful.
