What resources, besides Kijiji, does everyone here use to sell their used vehicles?

I have a vehicle I need sold in a fairly short period of time due to space limitations. Looking for the most effective way to advertise and find potential buyers.

Kijiji or Facebook Marketplace. Get ready to deal with low ballers regardless of platform. And price it cheap if you want it gone fast.

Craigslist if you are out west. Kijiji if you are out east. Autotrader is okay for everywhere too, and if you are on a lease, consider leasebusters, etc. That is mostly it.

Another vote for Facebook marketplace. I used to be a huge Kijiji fan, but I couldn't believe the response rate (and quick too) on Facebook. Price it well, clean it up nice, and it should sell fairly quickly.

There are much more people looking at kijiji than RFD BST Section if they are shopping for a car.
People in RFD are also in Kijiji, but people in kijiji are not necessary member of RFD. Kjiji has much larger potential buyers.

Lowballers and tire kicker exist everywhere. Be prepare and raise your EQ when reading PMs or kjiji messages.

If you're in ontario, get the UVIP, cleanup the car well and have service history in the glovebox.

I would try Autotrader, Kijiji and Facebook but honestly, everything I've sold recently (no vehicles), I get about way more traffic / interest on FB that I do from Kijiji so if you don't want to bother posting on multiple locations, post there.
