General chit-chat in "For Sale" threads

[bkp_duke]

I would NEVER buy a car that the owner would not let me test drive. Even if it was 2 months old.

You are cutting your (already small) buyer pool drastically that way.

OPs picture is definately not OEM Tesla cci.

I believe it is OEM, right?

It looks like an original Tesla version. Same one in my Tesla.

Strike 2. You really should just quit while you're behind. Maybe if you weren't so concerned with trying to impress us all with how smart you are this wouldn't have happened.

The way the staff of this forum allows people to disrespectfully crap on for sale threads is atrocious.

Ok i feel a little silly now. Didnt know telse made 2 version of the center console. Sorry op. My appologies. U should have uploaded that pic from the start.

To the other, you are trashing this tread just as much as me. Op can speak for himself.

Not trying to be pedantic, but don't blame OP for not uploading the picture that made you happy. you didn't know something, leave it at that rather than telling OP what pictures to upload after you erroneously called them out for pricing something wrong.

The EV market is not the ICE market. If someone can post what the charge rate.current range is on the car that can hold up in court then I already know what it will drive like

If people arent allow to say something because they didnt know about a subject, the internet would be so empty.


Plus i still stand by my pricing.. even if this is oem. They are discontinue for a reason.

Anyways, i out this thread. Please PM if u guys want to take.

Another bump for op for sale.

The difference here is you could have said, "Hey OP this looks like an aftermarket CCI and is priced pretty high" or "is this a Tesla or aftermarket center console?" You didn't approach this with any curiosity, you approached it with a matter of fact opinion that you continued to defend until you were definitively proven wrong.

The internet would be empty of rude, inaccurate, comment if people just took the time to ask rather than accuse.

It's also not your place to *sugar* on the pricing OP determined. Let the market determine the price they can support.

THANK YOU!
I’m not selling a ‘94 Chevy Blazer... A new Model S is a new Model S. Go to the store if you “want to see how it drives”

 

[kcseay]

Just letting you know, your thread is publicly visible now. Pretty car, I just ordered a Raven X in blue.

Thanks. I ended up pm'ing a moderator and it was manually approved

What’s the deal with all of the Tesla inventory deals clogging up this forum now? It’s making it hard to find cars actually for sale from members. Can we make a separate section for “Tesla Deals”?

Good idea. I hope it gets done. This is just one guy with some inside deals working for referrals.

what is a realistic price for a 2012-13 base model s with over 150k miles?

60 or 85?

There appears to be a floor on Model S pricing, because EV conversion companies and those using the batteries for other uses buy up high mileage used cars and/or wrecked and salvage vehicles for disassembly.

KBB says a 2012 Model S 60 with 150k has a private party value of 11,923 to 16,294, which I have never seen one go for remotely that cheap. Last I checked with people I know parting out these cars, the 60 pack itself was worth 10-12k, and the motor worth another 3-4k.

KBB says a 2012 Model S 85 with 150k has a private party value of 13,499 - 17,644, also far below what you will see the 85 battery pack and motor sell for alone.

Best estimate, I would say a 2012/13 Model S 60 with 150k of miles is worth low 20s, and a Model S 85 with 150k of miles is worth high 20s. And at those prices I would expect a pretty quick sale.

There are a lot of delusional sellers out there. Good for you for doing your research.

I was called "disillusion" too by someone just like you (it may have actually been you since you seem to love spending your life telling everyone else how to live theirs) but got my asking price after a few months of perseverance & dealing with low-ballers who couldn't afford what I was asking. It shouldn't matter what a seller wants to ask for their car if they're willing to wait for the right buyer. What's NOT right is people like you pretending to be some authority on what others should sell their car for. Talk about arrogant.

 

[Bishop]

Wasn’t looking to start an argument your right a seller can ask whatever they want for a car personally felt that price was a bit extreme which is why I asked the question ... doesn’t bother me at all one way or the other
