Title: Are aircooled parts struggling to sell nowadays? Post by: beetletom on September 26, 2016, 11:02:16 am Have listed a few various parts up , for a couple of months now, not even an enquiry
Where as a few years ago, had no problem! Am just about to take on selling a load of NOS classic car parts for a friend, but will I struggle to get these gone? Possibly has something to do with brexit in the uk?! ??? Even the recession 10 or so years ago, wasn't this bad? Title: Re: Are aircooled parts struggling to sell nowadays?

Really aircooled parts have always been difficult to sell. And it's been getting harder since we're seeing fewer cars on the road. Yes a few nice things will always sell, but only to a limited audience. but in general the quality stuff that isn't year or model specific is much easier to move on. How many times have you seen rare in an ad, i bet the number of people who'd buy it at top dollar are even rarer! |
