Car sold reasonably well and had no problem with the overall experience
However
Some of the advertising options are a bit sketchy
Not real keen on the constant upselling
Tends to be a bit tricky to NOT say yes by mistake

Advertising through carsales made the process very clear and reduced the risks and stresses of selling a car - especially if you are not familiar with the process. It was easy to put up the ad , and carsales provided very good advice on all the steps involved in selling a car - pricing, advertising, negotiating, inspections, payments, and then what to do when you have sold the car. Also carsales had very useful statistics on ad performance. I recommend carsales highly.

Carsales gets a lot of coverage so many people see my add. I sold my car in 3 weeks. Thanks carsales.

Advertising my car on Carsales was effortless and very cost effective. It took about 5 minutes to place the advert. Then my car was sold within a few days. The site was so so easy to use and any updates were actioned within seconds. Thank you

This is the first time I've sold a car privately. The website is very user friendly. The "help" section for sellers had some great info and tips. Would use again

People that contacted me on Carsales have genuine interest in the car and not time wasting. This is a stark difference compared to other platforms I've tried.

Was selling an older car (around 12 years old). Platform for uploading photos was fast and accepted high resolution data resulting in good quality ad photos. Ad overall was easy to set up and within 4 hours started to receive calls and emails from interested parties. Sold the vehicle the next day for the asking price.
This is probably outside the control of Carsales.com but a word of caution though. Received a call from an individual who was posing as a private buyer seeking a car for his wife but was in fact a wholesale dealer. I don’t know how prevalent this is but it’s something to be mindful of because in my case the individual had no desire to pay anything near the asking price,

So professional and found the extras you provide so supportive especially when I'm not used to doing this. Very helpful!!
And my car is sold, and for a good price :)

It was an easy process from start to finish. Car was sold to first person who viewed it. Wouldn't hesitate to use Carsales again.

Over all had more genuine interest on Carsales.. Callers were more genuine and not time wasting. I can strongly recommend Carsales to all my friends.

Not having sold a car in 23 years, I chose Carsales because of your reputation. I got the first enquiry three hours after putting the ad up and sold the car to the first caller. That is as good as it gets.

Carsales has the best platform for buying and selling cars, we sold our Subaru XV and also bought a car on the same day....I honestly don't know how you can improve.

I feel the fees are a bit high when you want to sell a car over $5000. The message system didn't seem to work all the time. Some messages never came through.

Listed premium ad $150+ the only contacts we got were from carsales themselves offering extremely low offers.
By comparison we posted the same thing on facebook for free and have had dozens of messages.
Complete rip-off carsales definitely doesn't have any reach to get buyers.

The system allowed me to post photos of the car and auto-inserted many specifications of the car that I may not have known. This makes it easy for buyers to find and compare cars.

This is the third vehicle we have sold via CarSales with minimal effort.
From posting the add to taking a deposit it took just over six weeks and we had the xmas new year period in the six weeks.

600 views in 2 days and sold for full price. So easy to use the website and great help with sale process.

Easy to use site, was a joy to set up and post the ad, being fee below $5000 was not expected, good choice of methods of communication between buyer and seller, all worked well, very satisfied. When I had a problem very quick reply and sorted out no trouble, Problem was even though I have changed my address it still gave the distance to buyer as old address. Excellent place to sell your car.

Honestly I do regret listing my car and wasting that amount of money. I listed same cars on Marketplace and ended up selling both there. I do recommend Marketplace as first option.

Way too expensive, not one enquiry after 2 weeks. Sold on Facebook marketplace in 3days with zero cost. I would expect carsales to continue to loose business, I will not be using again, other than the ridiculous price to list my car, I received so much more spam and dodgy scams . Lift your game
