Default Options for Selling an old golf cart vs trade-in

I had a functional 2002 Electric Club Cart that I needed to liquidate. One option was to list it here and go through all the effort of meeting buyers, determining price, assuring payment, etc. It just wasn't worth the hassle to me.



So, I called a number that frequently advertises in the paper that he buys old golf carts. Out came Villager Angelo Delmonte (after giving me a rough estimate over the phone). He gave the cart a quick once over, we negotiated a price, he handed over cash and away it goes. I probably gave up a couple hundred $$ in potential free market sale, but, the ease and quickness of the deal was well worth it.


For those buying a new cart with a trade-in, you get very little value on the trade-in. It would be worth a call to Angelo to see if he will beat the trade-in quote.


Phone #: 352-661-0838 Angelo Delmonte
