Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

          If you are negotiable you should put the lowest price you will take today and stick to your guns. You'll attract much more interest and sell your car faster and waste a lot less time showing your car and washing it. You'll also get the money sooner and save on insurance. The longer your car is on the market the less it will be worth when you eventually sell it. In time, your competitors will drop their prices too. The trick is to do so first by leading with your lowest price first up, then you can be truly firm instead of just pretending to be firm.

          PS - when I suggested this approach in another thread some tosser chimed in with the comment that they had "sold many cars above market value". This, of course, by definition is not at all possible unless they are a con artist or taking advantage of particularly stupid people, but given the availability of comparative date online this is unlikely and more likely they are deluded.

          If the answer to the Monty Hall problem was 50/50, the contestant, on average, would win the car 50% of the time simply by sticking with their original guess...but you can only win a one-in-three guessing game 33.33% of the time so it can't be 50/50, can it?

            Thanks for the comments, however I always leave a small amount of negotiating room in the advertised price, because, let's face it, everyone is going to try to bargain me down when selling, I understand this because I know I'd do the same

              Let them try and bargain you down, then stick to your guns. They can only succeed if you give in.

              The more confidence you show in your price, the more convinced the buyer will be that that is what they will have to pay.

              A lower price will also generate more enquiries and the more prospects you have the more confident you will be about your price, so sticking to your guns should not be a problem.

              Best negotiating technique: Just say "No".

              PS - Nice looking "R". The black looks really good with the, er, black!
