I raised the reserve verbally in the auction so ebay cancelled it saying I was trying to get around fees. Also they cancelled it because of the keywords I used in my title. I was trying to attract people who had forgotten all about these machines with off base keywords, I guess that is not allowwed. Yes I raised the Buy it now on this one. There has got to be some big money people out there for one in this shape. I sold my other one on monday locally for $5900. keep in mind though these machines are sweet. it may take a while to sell it but I know I will get what I want for it . they just dont make these anymore and as we all know they are fast and fun as all hell to ride.:beer

I saw the Key words and thought to myself that was very SMART marketing and would attract someone who may have never been looking for one.

Thanks, I thought it was a pretty good idea also but ebay didn't like it, now i am stuck with the same buyers as everyone else who is only looking for an atc 250r. I was hoping to find some NEW money.
It was working great. I had about 6 emails from people who said they had one when they were 16 years old and were buying a hummer now and had all but forgotten about their 3 wheeler. They actually thanked me for bringing back some awesome memories.:beer

here is what you do.

put all the key words in the title and then list then in the listing say you will also include an autographed (by you) picture of all those rides. just make a compulation pic and send if the buyer request it!!!!

it is sneaky and bends the rules but it works.:w00t:

Youre right, I did something similar using other machines in the title of one of my auctions.... I included COPIES of the brochures of those other machines to the winning bidder.

or go Wal mart buy a matchbox car of the Hummer and Jeep and include them in your auction with a picture of them as well.;)

:lol: :lol: ebay would probably kick me off.
some good ideas though. we need to get a 3 wheeler in a new movie or a rap/ rock video. Everybody with hummers and escalades would want one.
we just keep selling to the same people most of the time. So don't make fun of me if you see my 250R on ebay for quite along time. I know it will go for that price or more to somebody someday. :beer
