List Information Accurately:
You’d be surprised how many sellers make the mistake of having errors in their listings. A clean, accurate ad, free of typos and misspellings will go a long way to help you sell your vehicle. Use drop down menus wherever possible and make sure your spelling is correct and only use capital letters in your headline. A good presentation reflects on the quality of your merchandise for sale.
Always Use a Picture:
The old saying is true, a picture is worth a thousand words! People want to see what they are buying. Beyond that, many people searching the ads will not even stop at your ad without a picture, so by all means upload a picture (or two, or three) and watch your prospects improve.
List Your Features:
What makes your car special? What separates it from the pack? Maybe a buyer is looking for a certain kind of engine or options when they look online. Does it have a certain kind of wheels? Does it have satellite radio built in? Are there still items under warrantee? Find the best selling points about your car and list them near the top of your ad copy. Better cars, sell better. Put your best foot forward, but be accurate and don’t oversell.
Price Your Car Right:
Feel free to use our connection to services like the Kelley Blue Book as well as comparison listings to properly price your vehicle. Remember, buyers these days have many resources to choose from and some online buyers are looking to ‘flip’ your car, so price matters. A well priced vehicle has the best chance for a quick sale.

Membership:
To place an ad you must first sign in with your user information. In just one minute you will be a member of the auto selling community and your membership is free! Your information is never sold or exchanged with third parties for any reason.
Your membership registration provide the information for buyers to contact you regarding the purchase of your vehicle as well as entitling you to access all the sites features (including pricing data, car research via Carfax and the Kelley Blue Book, automotive news, links to service providers for loans and insurance and more.)
What’s more, as a buyer, membership helps you find the vehicle you are looking for. By adding a “vehicles wanted” listing to our database, you will be notified by e-mail when the particular vehicle you are searching for becomes available online. Sign up now!
To Advertise Your Vehicle:
Although this is primarily an automotive site, we welcome ads from all vehicle types. Cars, Trucks, Boats, Vans, Campers, RVs, even Off Road vehicles and Jet Skis. We’ve had sellers of all of the above successfully list their vehicles here and we encourage you to do so too!
Once you’ve signed up, go to “List My Vehicle” and type in all the pre-set listing boxes that you want to contain information about your vehicle. (make, model, year, mileage, features, etc.) You should also list other features and details in the box below the features list labeled “Description/Other Features.” Be sure to put as much information as possible to represent your vehicle as this is the only way buyers will know what you are selling.
Once you’ve finished the listing data, go to the Photo Upload section and upload a photo of your vehicle. Make sure your photos are clear and uncluttered. Present your car in the best possible light to attract the most customers. Up to five (5) photos can be added later, once you’ve finished your vehicle listing.
Once your listing is completed, click on the “Add My Listing” button. From there you will be taken to the payment page where you can complete your purchase and your ad will be ready to be seen by buyers all around the world!
Note: If you sell your vehicle before your ad’s expiration date, please log back in to delete your ad listing. This will help you avoid calls from buyers after you’ve already sold your vehicle and will keep our ad listings up to date without a lot of listings for items that are no longer available.
If you have any questions, please contact us at info@laautosales.com.
