Shameless 1995 E300D sale promotion :D

Hey everyone,

I'm selling my E300D on eBay due to financial necessity. I hate to see her go, but I would love if one of my fellow fanatics could buy her and love her as much as I have!

The listing is at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4561711821.

Of course, if the auction falls through, I'd be willing to negotiate price. Frankly, it's more important to me that she gets a good home than that I make a gigantic profit. Times are tough, etc. etc.

Best,

Damon

I don't think there is any connection.

Additionally, the price on this one is very attractive when compared to the dickhead's vehicle.

i'd say this is one to go for..... 7.5-8k would seem to be about right.

If I were staying in america, I would probably make you an offer and attempt to fly down there to get it. That is beautiful, I just can't rationalize buying a car then not using it for a year while it depreciates. Good luck selling it.

Has anyone noticed that these "fellow fanatics' and such that are posting cars for sale lately have posting numbers in the single digits? Sorry. You are not one of us. Spam your eBay cars somewhere else.

Luke, lots of folks lurk for months until they finally register. I did look at his ebay profile and he is buying lot's of MB parts and repair tools --maybe to quick to judge on him

He had been a member here for nearly one year.

The "spam" comment is not appropriate.

Sorry Damon, and those assembled. I stand properly corrected. 'Guess I got up on the wrong side of bed this morning. The posting just had that look about it.

Believe it or not, I am legit...

But thanks for your apology, Luke. I know it's tough to separate the wheat from the chaff.

I do admit to being somewhat of a lurker here, but mostly because all the answers to my questions are found by a simple search.

Don't think I'm not eternally grateful (and quite a bit "less poor") thanks to all of your advice and expertise!

FYI everyone, the reserve is $7500.

Best,

Damon

That is a quite a pickle...does one post a question and risk being told to use the search button...or remain in the shadows. I've tended to post questions and run searches, I've found the dialogue here to be very enlightening. I even tried to help a good doctor in Altanta with an overheating problem with his E300D....

Good luck with your sale, I bet you'll see at least $7500.

I kinda follow prices on W124's as I owned a 1993 300E (3.2) "E320" for so long.

If the condition is good, I think $7,500 is about at or perhaps a little below market value for a diesel model.

It would be a stretch for a '93-'95 E320 with similar mileage to go for even $7,000, but with relatively few E300 Diesel's sold in 1995 (just over 5,000), and the number of people looking for diesel's, I think your expectations are right on.
