Where is the best place to sale my Trek Domane road bike? I just cant ride anymore due to my EDS. So it has been sitting for 2 years and I am ready to sell it.
Ebay? Marketplace?
Our Craigs List is dead so not going to add it there.

DH has bought and sold nice bikes on FB Marketplace. The last one he sold was just a couple of months ago. Shipping and packaging would be pricey, and while I know you can do local pickup on eBay, it doesn't seem like most folks on eBay are really looking for local, though that might work in a larger metro area.

Try Pink Bike. They have a lively buy/sell page there. Dh has bought and sold a couple of bikes over the years.

I've sold most of mine though Marketplace. I'm also a member of several local cycling groups on FB, and have posted there with good luck. Also, not sure what area of the country you are in, but we have a large cycling event here in the spring, and I've had success selling for top dollar when that training begins - especially for a woman-specific bike which is harder to come by. Maybe you have something similar in your area.

Our Facebook Marketplace is pretty active.
If it is a decent bike, I would try your local cycling buy and sell page first (if your city has one). I have always found more reliable buyers and sellers there compared to the general marketplace.

I've sold most of mine though Marketplace. I'm also a member of several local cycling groups on FB, and have posted there with good luck. These are my two suggestions. You're not going to have to worry with shipping, and with the FB cycling groups there will be people who are more likely to know someone looking for a particular size/style bike.
