Anyone try this to sell their MINI??

I put my MCS on sale through Craig's List and I received a solicitation to sell it on this website: http://www.minitraderonline.com. Anyone ever heard of this?--tried it? If so, what was your experience.

It seems to me that it's easier to advertise through the local paper and other well-known means.

I listed my Lexus for sale on Craig's List and got the same website, except it had Lexus substituted for MINI. I never went to the link as I'm scared to death of viruses through unsolicited emails.

I think they wanted $29 or something. I, being the untrusting soul that I am, thought it was a scam.

I have seen horror stories concerning that site. Stay away is my advice.
