Online trading websites like eBay or Marktplaats.nl are doing very well. Over 2007, a significant rise was noted. Dealerdirect is trying to squeeze in among them by developing specialised websites for selling and buying cars. The company recently launched its third website, Handelsbod.nl.
The more usual websites like eBay and Marktplaats are platforms aimed at individual consumers primarily. On Handelsbod.nl however consumers can sell their cars directly to car dealers and vice versa.
Online car sale websites matching consumers to dealers are seen as greatly beneficial to the large transactions: they greatly diminish the risk consumers are scammed. People abusing eBay or Marktplaats are known to use counterfeit money or even downright steal cars during test drives: the approved car dealers Handelsbod.nl uses instead are much more trustworthy for consumers looking to sell their car.
