Selling a car in this day and age can be tough. Especially if you do
not own a car dealership. However, individuals in San Diego, California
can still have success in selling their vehicle. Many options are
available for people who are interested in selling their cars in a world
full of car dealerships.
Option #1- Craigslist
San Diego is a busy town, and many people are in need of transportation. Craigslist is an online advertisement website for people selling all kinds of items. Cars are one of the many items selling on Craigslist all over the United States. Utilizing Craigslist to reach out to car buyers in the San Diego area is great way to find buyers. Craigslist for San Diego assures you that buyers are local and not from out of state.
Option #2- Ebay
Ebay is another viable option. Recently Ebay has a category called Ebay Motors. This allows sellers to put their car up for sale on the internet for all the users of Ebay to see. Sellers can list their car up for auction or sellers can have a Buy It Now Price. This allows the buyer to ask the price that they want to without having an auction. The seller can list their location and in San Diego on Ebay. This will attract buyers in or around the San Diego area.
Option #3- Newspaper Classifieds

Putting a car ad in U-T San Diego is another option for selling a car. Thousands of people in San Diego read the paper every day. This will attract locals into buying a car based in the area. Running an ad in the paper will cost money, but nothing too expensive.
Option #4- Car Dealerships
Car dealerships are the last resort for selling a car. If you are in the market for a new car, many car dealerships will buy your old car. In many cases they will use your old car as a down payment. Many dealerships in the San Diego area are willing to do this. However, I would not advise on going to a car dealership as a first resort. Typically, they will not give you the amount you are asking or deserve for your car. In particular cases though sites like this one may be able to offer you more then you can receive on your own.
Selling in San Diego doesn’t have to be limited to local buyers. Using the internet as resource is a surefire way to sell your car for the price you want.
