One of the questions that people have asked us is why would people want to pay $99 a year to Cars Freak to list items for trade or sale when they can list on other sites for free. It really has to do with that old saying, “You get what you pay for.” For starters when something is “free” it’s the first stop for people to get ripped off and taken advantage of by criminals and their scams.

Top 7 Craigslist Scams
Getting scammed on the internet is unfortunately becoming commonplace — and your ads on Craigslist are no exception. So, how do you avoid getting scammed on Craigslist?
By simply charging $99 a year, most criminals are too cheap to pay to run their scams when they can advertise and promote on websites for free. When they’re having to pay to play, it’s an immediate stopping point since they are entering their credit card information through PayPal in order to sell on our website and pay a fee. This is far better for the buyer’s looking to purchase products from legitimate people, who are actually listing on Cars Freak.
Car Dealerships
Most car dealerships cannot list on sites for free. The majority of larger car classified ad sites are charging dealerships hundreds and even thousands of dollars per month to list their inventory. What about those cheap classified ad sites that are only $5 to list a vehicle for 30 days? Even if a site is charging just $5 to list a vehicle, if a dealership is listing 10 vehicles a month that’s $50 a month or $600 a year to list their inventory. Which is why Cars Freak is a great option for only $99 per year, plus with the ability to link back to the dealership website for better SEO for their dealer website.
Listing Fees
If you are someone who is already selling cars on other sites you know that those listing fees can add up pretty quickly. For vehicles it’s much more money, so you can see the value of Cars Freak for $99 a year to list multiple vehicles. As The Cool Car Guy of CoolCarGuy.com has stated, he pays one listing website $250 a month to list just 15 vehicles per month. That’s expensive advertising compared to Cars Freak where he can list as many vehicles in his inventory as he wants for only $99 a year.
There are no listing fees on Cars Freak, you can post as many items for sale as you want as often as you want and not pay any per post listing fees. Keep selling your products on those other sites, but why not add Cars Freak as another way to get exposure of your products? It’s only $99 a year, so if you’re someone selling thousands of dollars a year on those other sites, Cars Freak is a bargain!
