Hey guys,Ok, so after 2 weeks in the trader I've had precisely two kick-the-tire calls with 0 follow-up. My new car is in, and understandably they need me to **** or get off the pot... so I have to sell my car soon!

Has anyone had any luck with methods other than the autotrader? I was considering e-bay, but that's mostly a US market, and with the weak US dollar my car is just way too expensive for that market. I've been called by a car-locator service that will advertise my car and e-mail its particulars to clients who may be looking for something similar... for $150. It smells fishy, so I'm disinclined. Are there any places people know of that will sell a car on commission?

Is there a 'classifieds' website/system where you work? I've worked a a few large places that get a *ton* of traffic on internal classifieds systems.

Vancouver papers and Calgary Herald Autofocus sections as well as the added online Canada.com or Driving.ca sites seem to work.

Sorry Craig, couldn't help but try the sales pitch ...

Fire me an email with the details and I can post it on our classified system at work.
Tons of cars posted, and 40,000 potential viewers. Worth a shot...

PM me if you're interested, and I'll give you my email.
