Ad to sale in three days...
This is by no means the first bike I have sold via BIKESALES. Always get top dollar (as advertised), enough interested would-be buyers (only need one!), quick sale (five days to pick-up by buyer this time), and it's hassle free.
BUT - a gripe - you should state the maximum number of words and photos allowable under each selling package, otherwise one is guessing.

Hey Lawrence, Thanks for your feedback. It's great that you found a buyer so quickly and got the price you were after. I'll pass on some feedback about a word limit notification, re the photos, we don't have a limit, so you can add any many as you like. See you next time. -Alex

No leads, not worth the money
Sold bike from garage.
Paid and had very little leads.
Sold on gumtrees with dozens of leads much quicker.

Sold in less than a week
I advertised my bike on a Monday and had 3 enquiries by that night. I agreed to sell for the asking price to a buyer on Tuesday and he picked it up the following weekend and settled payment for the full purchase price.
I was most impressed as I also received at least 6 other genuine buyer enquiries. Sold in less than a week, can't get much better result than that.

Painless selling process for sub $3000 bike
Easy to use with selectable criteria and free to sell for <$3000 bikes.
Excellent messaging system although i was a little surprised by the number of people (scammers am assuming) asking to call offline from the first interaction.

Easy to use platform but I feel less and less people are using it now giving less views. The price for the add is rather steep especially when you don't get any interest from this site
