'Sold parts in 4 hours of listing'

Author: Joris Bergsma Monday, 22 November 2010

Can you get your system to generate one invoice / for multiple paid adds. This would make it simpler for the user, and reduce the transaction amounts, and save all work for all.
Cheers
Oh, sold parts in 4 hrs of listing, so it does work.

Free Advert Feature

Author: Bill Coates Thursday, 21 October 2010

Dear Editor,
                     Just to say that I really appreciate your free advert feature for relatively low value parts which might otherwise be difficult to find a home for because of advertising costs elsewhere.  Thank you for allowing this space in the web page. Yours sincerely,
Bill Coates

overnight sale of Bugatti GP project

Author: Joris Bergsma Monday, 11 October 2010

Re. Bugatti parts for sale – enough to start a GP project with part original body and engine:

Last Tuesday the advert was activated and immediately emails and phonecalls started pouring in.
In less than 12 hours about 12 had replied. Interest came from several countries: UK, Germany, Czeck Rep, Poland, France, Hungary, USA and Italy.
Phone calls came in fast as well and by Wednesday morning 17 had either written or phoned. One person called at 07.00 am. to inform that he was setting on for a 12 hour drive and could he visit the same evening! That done he had a good look and went away for the night to contemplate. By next morning the original engine parts and the body parts had been sold and loaded, while the complete T35B kit off parts had been sold separately already the night before.

I still have the big T 46 engines, but they are reserved as well. Only a few parts remain now.
So the moral is, that one has to be quick whenever Bugatti parts come for sale.

Both buyer and seller were happy, but I of course had to disappoint a lot of others. Still I made many nice contacts and had great car conversations with fellow enthusiasts around the world.

Thank you Joris and your friendly team.
