View Full Version : Russia AC-5M on E-Bay?

I have had my Russia AC-5M up for sale for quite a while now with no
results. I was thinking of putting it on E-Bay to get a more international
exposure. Has anyone ever sold an airplane on E-Bay? Is this a crazy
idea? The plane is like new and we keep dropping the price but I guess
they are not of interest right now. See
http://www.bbbrown.com/bbbrown/Russia/Russia4.html for info. I think we
are able to take almost any reasonable offer at this time.

I did have it there for a while but it did not get much action. Maybe now
that we are drastically lowering the price I will list it again. Thanks.

it's price.price ......price
gliders are selling.I update the Wings & Wheels Want-ads DAILY!
Gliders are being bought and sold......but it's always pretty
obvious....there are a few "hot" selling gliders, though nothing really is
in high, high demand.......but buyers do look for that good deal.....and
gliders that look like good deals get a lot of attention and do get sold...
Gliders listed for "blue sky" prices, or listed without prices don't get
sold, no matter what they are

try again.....

Ok, I will try again. Our price has been slashed dramatically since
neither of us have time to fly it seems.

Tim's want ads seem to have universal appeal... and to serious pilots.
Using some marketer's tricks I found that those who saw my glider on
Tim's page were much more serious buyers than those who responded to
my Soaring Magazine classified ad. Take advantage of Tim's service,
and put the extra effort into "selling" your glider. There's someone
out there who wants it. He just hasn't realized it yet. The rest is up
to you.

Thanks everyone for your feedback. We just want to find a good home for
our "baby."
