Scooters - 125 to 300 => People 250 => Topic started by: hypophthalmus on December 10, 2017, 09:01:16 PM

Since I'm mostly convinced that neither repair nor engine replacement are viable for my People 250 with a blown motor, I'm considering other options.
I could possibly part it out. But I wonder how much I would actually make after shipping large, heavy, awkward parts. Assuming anyone actually wants them.
I could attempt to sell the entire bike, hoping that there's someone else nearby that might want it for parts. I'm not sure how much I should charge for that though? And being a pretty uncommon bike, I'm not sure if I'd find a buyer.
Or some other option that I'm not aware of?

I'd run it in cycletrader. Set a price, "or best offer" and see what happens. Or you could break it and sell the cleaned up bits on eBay with a nice couple of photos.....but that is a hassle unless you need a hobby.
I ran an free advert for a clapped-out VW Jetta on a huge VW web site and sold it for a surprisingly good price in just a matter of days - cycletrader might be the closest thing we have to that VW site.(www.thesamba.com (http://www.thesamba.com))
