Best place to sell Isla Bikes

We have 2 outgrown isla bikes that we want to sell. Does anyone know a good place/method to sell them?

We're not on Facebook...

Thank you!

We were looking to buy a second hand one a few years ago and the only place I could find them for sale was Facebook.

Maybe a local cycling club?

There are at least two very active Facebook groups specific to islabike resales. If you want to get the best price for them, I'd strongly suggest joining Facebook and joining the groups. You can always deactivate your account once sold. Prices on eBay are more hit and miss, and you'd have fees to deduct.

Thank you both, I thought that might be the case. I was just looking at eBay and as you say, the prices are all over the place.

I have actually just remembered that DH has a FB account (that he never uses/looks at), so I will tell him that he's in charge of selling the bikes. Which will make a nice change from me doing it all Grin

Worth setting up FB account just for this.
We put them on the specific Islabike selling page, and had a few people interested, and sold within a week.
Don’t put them on a regular selling page. You’ll just have loads of people commenting on why you’re asking £300+ for a used children’s bike!

We've sold ours on a Facebook group specifically for Isla Bikes
