In Russia, there is a huge number of car superstitions: if you meet an animal, an accident will happen with a pedestrian; do not draw fire on the hood or on the doors – the car will burn; threw garbage out of the window – you will bring bad luck and fines; whistled in the cabin – traffic cops will stop. Went on a long road and a tire popped? Be especially careful, they warn from above that difficulties will arise. In a word, the entire history of the existence of the internal combustion engine and its widespread use have given rise to their own culture and rituals, and in different countries of the world they can be very different.
Northern Americans, for example, hang a bag from their rearview mirror. What that means is clear to them. At the same time, residents of Argentina, for example, put a bottle of water or some other bright, but worthless object on the roof of a parked car. Why choose the cheapest possible, it’s clear – so as not to get stolen. But why post at all? Perhaps they scare away birds with blinding or tell others that they left the car for a short time and will leave soon, freeing up the parking lot? It turns out that everything is much simpler.
Argentinian drivers make it clear that the car is for sale. They simply attract the attention of those who idly wander there to increase the audience of those interested. It seems strange: a long time ago and everywhere t / s are sold on the Internet. I took good photos, wrote an interesting and honest text – and waited for the client. However, as practice shows, a large number of transactions are carried out thanks to old outdated technologies.
Firstly, many motorists do not use the Internet: the elderly and even only adults still prefer to look with their eyes and only then make a decision. The second group are motorists who do not know what they want. They have not chosen a model and brand, everyone is looking, they are looking visually. Well, the third option is for those who do not want to travel far and watch cars. They choose from options sold near the house. Visually satisfied? We go to the nearest elevator and if everything is in order, we sign the papers.
Despite all the achievements of the Internet, there are a lot of such people in all countries, so if you decide to sell a car, do not hesitate to put a “for sale” sticker on it – this way the probability of sale will increase. It is not for nothing that the sellers of apartments regularly hang letters of intent in every window!
