Best place to list HJ 60? (1 Viewer)

[Drewid]

I'm hearing mixed opinions about where to list my 1988 HJ 60. I'm planning to list it in about a month.

FB Marketplace and Bring a Trailer seem most common. Having never sold on online, I appreciate any advice you can offer.

Well Bring a trailer is an auction site that caters to mostly top tier/rare/restored/interesting vehicles, and there is an application process (same with cars and bids)

Craigslist is for anything, and costs $5

there are other marketplace sites that are free to list and browse (i run one btw)

and then there is FB marketplace, a free for all that is free to use and you get what you pay for

and the classified section here on Mud is quite active

first, youre gonna need a lot of good pics and details

Not sure the condition of your HJ, but don't assume like most people do that BaT or other auction sites are an automatic ticket to the best profit. Mint, rare, excellent condition examples can bring top dollar, but the comment sections there can pick apart every single flaw based on the pictures and imperfect trucks plummet in bid activity quickly. Many on BaT don't meet reserve pricing, or risk non-reserve and low offers.

Start by posting here, Mud folks generally know what they're looking at and are willing to travel and make fair deals.

^^This. I'd try here first and see how it goes. My experience of Craigslist recently is that it has much lower viewership as people have migrated to FB for selling items. That said, both FB and Craigslist come with warning labels as far as scammers go. Bottom line is go with the site/format you feel most comfortable with managing and are familiar with the pros and cons associated with said site.

Purely out of curiosity, what a decent condition no rust hj60 worth these days?

I'm not sure. I see a wide range out there. I need to repair a window motor before I post it here.
