Tips for best bargains

Here are a few of our top tips to get the best results and deals on ebay using our website.

The default settings for your selection of Cars-Motorcycles-Vehicles, are items for 99p or less, Auction only, UK items, in ending soonest order, however you may wish to refine your search with a higher limit, distance or additional options.

Don't forget to enter your postcode to obtain results by distance.

Once you are happy with the options click the OPEN EBAY PAGE button and the ebay results will open in a new tab.

When buying Cars-Motorcycles-Vehicles, consider the following:

Selecting "on ebay UK" will include overseas suppliers where the delivery charges are often many times the sale price, so watch the cost.

Items can be cheaper from local sellers, as delivery/collection costs could be high especially with heavy items. There will also be less competition on "collection only" items. Click here to go to the Collection only search page.

You are unlikely to find a car, boat, aircraft or motorcycle for 99p, it will probably be a listing for a part or breaking. Try £600 for a cheap car listing. Remember a car would scrap for over £100 in weight alone.

Check or ask if it has 2 keys/fobs as these can cost a small fortune to get replacements and programming

Check the insurance for the car, it can make a difference.

Check the value on a car valuation website (We buy/want... .com) if there is a registration number. It will give you a guide on the rock bottom price. Don't be surprised if the valuation is very low from these websites. It's why they make millions and why people sell on ebay. If the vehicle goes for less than their valuation it should be a bargain, assuming it is as described.

Google - A Google search for a specific item could also give an insight into the value, availability and highlight any problems or things to look out for.

Gumtree - Check other website such as Gumtree to check the prices of Cars-Motorcycles-Vehicles items.

Refine the Results - If there are too many results, on the lefthand side of the page in grey, there are even more options together with the number of items in that selection in brackets().

Timing - Often items are set to end at a number of days after submission and this can be at any time during the day. Watch out for the items that are ending either in the early hours or during the working day. There are fewer people able to surf during the day and the items can often be had for far less than those ending in the evening when the competition is higher.

Check the previous ebay sales for the item - There's a quick way to check an eBay product's market value by looking at those already sold. Open ebay in a new page and fill in the search box and tick 'completed items' on the left-hand grey bar. It'll come up with a list of prices for similar auctions that have ended. Then sort by "price: lowest first". If the price is red, it means no one bought it. Green means it sold.

Remember even at 99p it may not be a good deal, so shop with care (probably will be though).
