I had a 91 Honda Prelude SI that had bent valves, bald tires worn struts, and the AC didn't work. The car was 10 years old but looked good.
I put $1800 on it hoping to get $1300. Well within 3 hours I had 5 people trying to get the car 3 were at the house at the same time and two went for a test drive together! I got the $1800 easily, I should have put $2500 on that thing.

Now is tax time and everyone thinks they're rich so anything you list for sale will definitely get a few bites. This is why the best time to hit up the auto auctions is between early December and mid January. Everyone is spent from Christmas and waiting for their tax refund but as soon as they get their refund they have it spent in 2 days.
Are you kidding? I bet every person with a mullet within 100 miles was on that like flys on shit. I bet 25% need it to finish their Trans-Camaro!
A friend of mine posted a Dodge Dynasty on Craig's List for $700 and the same thing happened to him. At this point he sick of the calls and the first person that shows up with $600 takes it... Bunch of damn tire kickers..

I've not had any luck selling a '94 Explorer 4X4 in pretty nice shape. Took it to a dealership for them to sell and they are asking 30 - 40% more for it than I was. And they expect to get it. Only been a week and haven't hard anything from them yet.

Weird how that works huh? I put my old boat up for sale last summer and had it sold within a day. I thought $500 was WAY too much for it, seems how it was in terrible shape, did not run, and the trailer was pretty close to junk (and I paid $100 for it...)
But some guy showed up and wrote a check without blinking an eye...even asked me why I was selling it so cheap.
