Default What is with this ebay dealer?

Land Rover Discovery SE Southern | eBay

18K for a used 2004 Discovery II?

Even with 52K on the clock there is no way this car is worth 18K.


And this isn't the only one listed either.

Exactly right

Problem is people will get sucked into buying it.

It's way over the top even for UK prices and they are usually too expensive on Fleabay.

discovery 2 2004 | eBay

Just to clarify, V8's sell far cheaper in the UK than TD5's due to the fuel economy thing.

+1. As typically when I sell something, I always overprice it as working on the principle...............it only takes one who thinks it's a bargain or good buy. That said, it does leave some room for haggling, assuming anyone answers the ad.

I learned that years ago. I listed my car at a low price (just wanted rid of it) and no one called. I raised the price and started getting calls. Guess they figured if it was too cheap, there was something wrong with it!

Obviously, you've ALL missed the highlight of the vehicle that makes it worth 18k. And I quote: "4 Matching "MICHELIN" tires in good condition".

They MATCH!!! AND, they're Michelin!

Matching... Michelin... Let it sink in... Now, go buy that truck...
