Hi Bill,

You can try BNO, they have a pretty good place to post buses for sale. It really is a crap shoot in this market. I scan a few adds now and then, you can also try posting on craigslist to get a feel for the market. Post it in different areas like LA, Dallas, Atlanta and don't forget Nashville TN. There is a bunch of others too, like Goodson. Just google until you get tired! ;)

Gonna try it again huh?

Good Luck,

Paul

Bill,
    I know several that have sold theirs on Ebay.  They did not look at Ebay so much as a selling source as they did as an advertising source.  In this economy, the more places it is, the more likely you are to find that one person that says "thats what I am looking for".  Jack

If I understand Craig's List, it is only by region.  Is there anyway to do a nationwide listing.

Thanks,

Bill

Bill, cut and paste the add and insert it in each area you want to list it in, it's done all the time.

Julio, That works good, but you still have to have a listing on craigslist, eBay or wherever first. All that site does is gather all of the advertisements from different locations and put them in one spot. I use sitemash to do a general search all the time.

Good Luck,

Paul

busforsale.com out of Nashville has the most informative site I have viewed. I don't know what they charge, but the features are first class.

Sometimes when my bus overwealms me with whats next, I just go over there and look and it makes me feel better.

Lots to look at and not alot of coaches under $100,000. They also have a full feature area for the "For Sale By Owner" people.

Craig's List is regional. My state has 15 areas listed so just post it in the most populace ones. BNO is another good site to list it. I'd try the free places first.
