Suggestions on selling my car quickly... Ebay?

Here is my posting in the for sales section... do you think it would be worth posting on Ebay?

FS: Modded Single Turbo 93 FD - 98K on Body

Reason im selling is a lay off and having to move to the east coast.... Im thinking price wise im pretty low...

Ebay is not a good place to get top dollar. Your car may do well at the 10k price point. Lots of people looking to get a great deal, not many looking to get a good deal.

Without the intercooler on the car and the damage it will be hard to get over $10-12k for the car although it is worth more. Unfortunately that is just the market.

Wow. That is a ridiculously cheap! I'd take it with me. I moved NY to CA and dragged my FD out here.

Don't even! Put it on eBAY with a $9,000 listing price and go from there. You might just get more.

Man - if I hadn't dropped my stash on a ******* water softener for this house, I'd come grab it from ya. Good luck - hopefully you can get what you need from it.

BTW, what's on the east coast? Where you headed? I'm from MD originally...

Problem with eBay is the flakers. With that price it should sell quickly but there is a very high chance that the buyer will not come through. Demand a high (say, $1000) non refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction close to discourage this.
