Just have realistic expectations about how much it will sell for. Prices now aren’t like they were 6 months ago.

My expectations are very reasonable, if not humble.
However, there's has to be some fair price to cutting down on waiting queue.
I am just trying to figure out the way to sell.

Ebay, Cars and Bids, Bring a trailer, craigslist??, Autotrader

Do your research there isn't one right answer that would work for everyone. You should be able to find a buyer very easy if you list at a fair price on any of those platforms.

Dumb question but why not just cancel your order if you don't want it? Someone still trying to flip and make a profit?

Personally I'd cancel if you don't want it, then maybe someone else who's been patiently waiting for years can get theirs a little bit sooner...

I'm about to sell my Launch edition (about 4000 miles, clear bra front bumper/hood). Is 110k a reasonable price?

Is that a joke? If not do some research to see what other sellers are asking:

Remove all the custom wrap first

Not any more. Not with actual miles on it.

If you list on the sponsor here, Findmyelectric.com, and pay $49 for the "featured" listing, the site owner will give you a really good price analysis and recommend what I found to be a very accurate selling price range. He was dead on with the price I got for my old 2012 Signature Tesla Model S I sold last month.

RE: the R1T, he wrote the following to me on 8/14/2022. I'm sure the market has corrected even more since then:

"Take Rivian R1T for example—we’re just starting to see real, hard corrections there, and it’s taking some time for seller expectations (and buyers too) to catch up.

All the people willing (and able to) to pay $120k - $130k (which is $30k-ish over MSRP) for an R1T just to have one, have already done so. So now, a realistic number is in the $105k - $112k range. Still over MSRP, for sure, but not so crazy. And for people looking to flip them who live in a state that charges sales tax on vehicles, well, the margin is definitely getting smaller."

Honestly, his price analysis was really worth the $49 featured listing fee in my experience. He's very knowledgeable.

THanks, this is helpful. JJSWAN- your comments are not helpful. There is a big difference between asking price and what people are actually getting.
I'll keep the wrap just in case someone wants it, otherwise it is easy to take off.

Can you share why you want to sell it so s00n?

Like everyone else, you probably waited a long time for the truck.

I wasn’t trying to be mean, a lot of sarcasm in online forums so it was a legit question. Just saying do some research. If people are asking $100k with less miles and not selling I doubt you would get $110k. But if you want $110 then go ahead and try, I wish you luck.

Keep in mind supply is increasing so resale prices will continue to fall probably into the 90-100k range for new trucks.

I think $100k asking price is still fair. Be willing to take 5 - 10% less. Definitely not worth my time flipping for a few thousand. Drive the hell out of it for a year, then sell at break even, before next year's registration is due.

I guess it’s all relative but seems like a lot of hassle for such little coin…
