I disagree with the don't be too honest. I've had my used car dealers licence and I've sold a ton of cars via both CL & news paper classifieds. I've always made it a point to tell people everything I know about a car when selling it.

I agree with everything else though, but I've always had good luck just being honest with people. In all the cars I've sold I've only had one issue which was with a Class B RV and the woman whom bought it was in over her head and tried to use a bunch of BS mechanical claims from her brother's mechanic shop to back out of the deal.

One thing I'll add though is always stick to your guns on your low ball price. There are a lot of cheapskates out there and as long as you aren't selling a POS and are in the right ball park on the price it will eventually sell.
