Venue to sell a bike

[Default]

Looking for a suitable venue (in UK) to advertise selling my bike. Any recommendations?

Is eBay really any good?

Ebay is a buyer's market for whole bicycles. Ebay is a seller's market for bicycle parts.

I have seen people who buy bikes on ebay, then turn around and sell the parts at a profit. So if
your bike has collectable or high quality parts, you might consider "parting it out" on ebay. I am
frequently amazed at the low prices for entire bicycles (some in very nice condition) that are
paid on ebay.
