For sale ads. April 01, 2014 12:55PM
If I had a dollar for every time something is listed in the for sale section with absolutely no hint as to what engine it fits, I'd be rich. Sometimes the seller mentions who supplied the part(s), that is a bit of a hint at times, but still doesn't really mean much.

Guys will have better luck selling parts if we know what they fit.


End rant.

subject should have atleast a brief description what it is.

should have price in base as some people think they have gold and other people lose a sale because people look at ads that if they dont want to list price then they most likely are asking to much

No prices and no pictures bother me. But then in the ad it's call or text for price and pictures

I have posted many ads on the for sale page and agree that price is a must in the ad.

But some of us are technologically impaired and don't know how to get photos on the computer from my phone to put on here for the ad, hence the can text pics phrase as that is within my technology ability Smiling

Just a few things #1 You can never go up on a listed price, if you ask 1000 and go down to 500 people feel as if they got a deal (even though you would have sold it for 400) #2 No one is forced to read a add or buy the part, price is realy only good or bad to you maybe the next person will think its a good deal. #3 Some people dont want to build everything, if you can buy it for what you think is a good price and you would rather spend your time working on somthing else it you cant afford not to buy it.

My favorite is wheels without the backset diminsion listed. With a big percentage of tractors having weld on hubs that's kind of critical information. I will not call or give a second look at adds without all pertinent information & that includes price. At least a state for location is also appreciated so I don't have to look up zip code.

How bout on Racing Junk where they don't put what the part fits.
Usually it's a smallblock chevy guy, the rest of the world does not exist to them!

No one said you had to buy it. Go buy new with your daddy's cash then.

Why wouldn't those who advertise on the "For Sale Page" price things high? Many people (not all) are always wanting "a deal", Those individuals that I'm referring to don't think they've gotten that deal unless they buy something advertised for half to two thirds the advertised price. In my case, lets be honest. There are some things I bought at a decent price, some I got "a deal" on and others I paid to much for not really knowing better. Those things that I have bought were paid for with hard earned money. So, if I want to ask a high price when I do sell them, that's my decision. If someone doesn't want to pay that, or at least make an offer, that's up to them.

If it doesn't say what engine the parts fit, assume it's IH. That will be the case most of the time, it seems. Popularity has it's advantages (or drawbacks).

I fail to see the prices you listed as crazy high. The p pump example could be roughly half price of new and in some cases less than half. Rims aren't cheap either, especially if they've been widened and professionally painted.
