Buy My Scooter |
How does it work?
If you're buying a scooter . . .
It's Simple! All you have to do is check out the listing and contact the seller via email or phone (if their phone number is listed). The entire transaction is between you and the seller.
Buy My Scooter's role is to simply connect you with the seller. We also allow sellers to give buyers a peace of mind by having the scooter inspected by one of our mechanics. These scooters are listed in the certified section. These sellers have taken the time to have their scooter inspected and make sure everything is in a safe working order for you, the buyer. We highly recommend purchasing a scooter that has been listed in the certified section.
If you're selling a scooter . . .
It's simple! Follow these easy steps to get your listing online!
1. Read the different listing options below and decide which fits your needs best. Rates vary depending on the section, length of listing, and the number of pictures you would like.
2. Make payment for your listing on our scooter listing payment page.
3. Go to our scooter listing form page and fill out and submit the form to provide us with all the necessary information to appear in your listing. Once the form has been submitted to Buy My Scooter, it will be approved by a customer representative.
4. Email the picture(s) of your scooter to .
If you are selling, you have 3 options:
1. List in the "Used" Section
This has been a very successful area to sell your used scooter. In order to list in the used section, you must make payment and then submit the listing form and pictures of your scooter. Please see current rates below for listing in the used section below.
2. List in the "Certified" Section
The Certified Section is the best place to advertise a great looking scooter that's also in safe working condition! This is also the place for buyers to look for a new scooter in the best working condition because it has passed our special 35 point inspection to assure both your safety when you start enjoying your new scooter and it's overall condition and value. Buying a scooter off the street can be risky and dangerous unless you are very mechanically inclined and have the knowledge of what to look for when it comes to real and possible scooter operation problems. If not, on the street this can lead to injury and even death in some cases so we can't stress it enough to make sure you either purchase an inspected scooter or have your scooter inspected by us after you've made your purchase.
In order to list in the certified section, you must make your payment and then submit the listing form and pictures. All scooters listed in the certified section have to undergo and pass a 35 point inspection. When you submit your listing form, you will be contacted by a customer representative to have your scooter inspected. If you would like to make sure your scooter will pass the inspection you should review the Scooter Inspection Form. A scooter's inspection rating and inspection sheet will be placed in the listing along with all of the other information. Please see current rates below for listing in the certified section. The scooter must pass inspection with at least a "B" rating.
Inspection Requirements
In order to list in the certified section, your scooter must pass an inspection by one of our mechanics. Inspection fee is $30 non-refundable. To pass inspection, your scooter must clear at least 28 of the 35 inspection points.
Grading System
28 - 29 out of 35 = B
30 - 31 out of 35 = B+
32 - 33 out of 35 = A
34 - 35 out of 35 = A+
3. List in the "Featured" Section
NEW CHANGE! In addition to listing in the used or certified section, for only $10 more, you can have your scooter shown in the Featured section. What's so important about this? Everyone who comes to BuyMyScooter, including potential scooter buyers, first lands on the Home Page. Once there you see the big Marquee Billboard on the upper right where pictures of scooters are rotated on it. This catches everyone's attention and if someone sees your scooter and likes the way it looks they simply click on the picture and it takes them directly to your private, personal listing page bypassing all the multiple listings on the Used and Certified pages so you have a captive buying audiance and no competition! Motivated smart sellers are using this to sell their scooter quickly and you can too! If you need to really sell a great looking scooter fast then consider listing it in the Featured Section. Please see current rates below. No inspection is necessary to list in this section.

Other Fees
1. "Top Five" - Listings placed at the top of a category get clicked first and naturally get more exposure. Make sure that your listing is one of these top five listings! For a small fee, you can make sure that your scooter is at the top of the page. The top five are placed at random, but you are guaranteed to be in the top five. If the top five have already been contracted out, you will be contacted and will be placed on a waiting list. Once someone in the top five sells their scooter and their listing is removed, we will contact you and place your listing in the top five. $5/month fee.
2. Listing Information Edits - You have 24 hours once your listing is placed online to make sure that the contact information and scooter information you have submitted is correctly displayed in your listing. If there is an error in the listing and we made the mistake, the error will be fixed at no charge. If you need to make a change to the information in your listing after the first 24 hours that is different than the information you originally submitted, ie: exchange or tradeout a picture, new email address, new phone number etc., you will be charged an editing fee to change the information in your listing. $2.50 fee.
3. Picture Additions - All listings, both free and paid, include one picture at no extra charge. If you want to enhance your listing to help your scooter sell faster by including more pictures of it they can be added to your listing at any time for an additional fee. Up to 2 additional pictures may be added to a 1 picture listing as there is currently a maximum of 3 pictures total allowed per listing. $2.50 fee/picture.
