Best place to advertise a car for sale

[Phildo]

Gumtree is where everyone looks first. And it's free.

Some people also look at Carsales.com.au

I actually bought a Camry Hybrid via Carsales last week. I needed to replace a Falcon taxi with a Camry Hybrid. I had been checking Gumtree at least twice a day, looking for the right deal.

Last Tuesday night I figured I'd have a look through Carsales as well. Sure enough, there was a suitable Camry Hybrid there, which hadn't been advertised anywhere else.

As very few buyers look through Carsales, I was the first caller. I paid $10,000 cash for an October 2010 Camry Hybrid HL that would normally sell for $14-15k here in Perth.

That car would have sold in the first few days on Gumtree. But, after several weeks on Carsales, I was the first caller. Fine by me.
