I don't love the Cycle Trader User…

I don't love the Cycle Trader User Interface as I don't find it that intuitive to navigate. I think the price point is too high for posting. I've had mixed luck with responses and seem to do better on FB Marketplace or Offer Up.

Your post will get buried under all the dealership ads

Love the platform and the ability to get my item out to the masses but dealerships just overload the pages pushing mine to page 10+ after the first day or two. I understand it’s about money and they post a lot but kind of unfair to the average guy wanting to post with you guys.

Nothing but scammers and bots on here

So far I've only received a message from 1 person and it turned out to be a scammer. This is the 3rd time I've listed my bike on here in probably 10 years and it has still not sold. What exactly am I paying for?

Way over priced for the service you get

Way over priced for the service you get . You aren’t going to increase sales with your current procedures. You should allow the user to list the product and sale before charging ! Similar to how gunbroker does things . I’m going to list on marketplace which is free
