Dear vintage kart enthusiast,
Due to the start of a new kart project in EU, I unfortunately do not have the time to maintain http://www.vintagekartshop.com. Therefor I would like to sell it in one go or in separate lots.
I would appreciate your view/comment/remarks on this matter!!!!
Or propositions for a approach! I am thinking of eBay or a buyer finders fee.
PS most of our parts are on our website http://www.vintagekartshop.com
Please contact me at this forum or:

Thanks,
Robbin

hi robbin,
sad to hear you're moving on.
easiest way to sell off inventory would be to ditch the high shipping rates and cut the prices 20%.
we are aware of your shop but the best is gone and what remains is too high with shipping to bother with.
the karts i'd just put up on ebay and let the market decide.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your fast reply! Hope you are doing well.
I agree, when selling in lots I will not charge shipping nor handling cost.
The problem is I do not have the time/capacity to sell all separately on eBay or modify our website.
I could leave it as it is now, but I do think this collection could make someone happy.
It will be even possible to make some money on the side and at the same time doing something you like.
What about if you, or someone at this forum finds a buyer and will receive a fee for it?
what would be a reasonable fee?
Thanks,
Robbin

What is a reasonable price? The Cates and Caretta's are kinda ruff but demand a high price. I've purchased parts from your store and was very happy with the items.
I'm finding the hardest part of restoring is finding that last half wheel or that last small part to make it complete.
You might maximize your sale price by parting out your kart inventory.
