Selling a golf cart in Chintsa: how it works
The process is the same wherever you are: photos and a few details from your phone, a written offer within 24 hours, then accept, sign and book a collection slot online. We arrive with our own transport and pay by EFT before we drive away. No viewings, no time-wasters, no transport to arrange.
Chintsa collections are done with our transport partners; expect a date within one to two weeks of accepting, confirmed in writing with the offer.
Coastal carts work harder than their hours suggest: sea air attacks battery terminals, chassis rails and brake cables. We buy plenty of Chintsa carts with surface rust — we simply price the clean-up into the offer. If yours has an aluminium chassis (Club Car) or a recent lithium pack, say so; both carry a real premium on the coast.
Plenty of Chintsa carts belong to owners who live elsewhere. That's no problem: the whole process — photos, offer, signing, payment — happens on your phone, and we arrange the collection with whoever holds the keys. Just tell us in the form who to phone on the day.
What golf carts are worth in Chintsa
Across Chintsa the spread is wide — roughly R40 000 – R180 000 — because battery type, seats and brand matter more than the badge on the front. Below are the bands we see most; send photos and we'll tell you exactly where yours sits.
The things that move a Chintsa cart up or down the range are the same everywhere: battery age and type, brand (Club Car and Yamaha hold value best), seats and lift, hours and condition, and whether the charger, keys and paperwork are all there.
- Mainstream lead-acid (2013–2019): R40 000 – R75 000 (e.g. Club Car Precedent, E-Z-GO RXV, Yamaha Drive)
- Premium lithium 4-seater (2019+): R85 000 – R150 000 (e.g. Club Car Onward / Tempo, E-Z-GO RXV ELiTE, Yamaha Drive2)
- 6-seater / lifted / street kit: R90 000 – R180 000 (e.g. Any brand, 4+2 rear seat, lift kit, lights) — highest demand on estates

Questions sellers ask
How quickly can you collect a golf cart in Chintsa?
Usually 7–14 days of accepting the offer. Chintsa collections are done with our transport partners; expect a date within one to two weeks of accepting, confirmed in writing with the offer. You choose a two-hour window that suits you and we come to your home, golf estate or club with our own transport.
What are golf carts selling for in Chintsa?
Roughly R40 000 – R180 000 for most private carts in Eastern Cape, with lithium four- and six-seaters at the top. Send photos and we'll price yours exactly, in writing, within 24 hours.
I don't live in Chintsa — can you still collect my cart?
Yes. Everything happens on your phone — photos, offer, signing, payment — and we arrange the collection with a neighbour, caretaker or golf estate office. Tell us who holds the keys in the form.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, a faulty charger, a controller fault, a cart that has stood for two years — we buy all of them. The offer simply reflects the repair cost. Tell us what's wrong in the form and photograph the battery pack; that's usually all we need.
Is the offer really free, and do I have to accept it?
Yes and no. The offer is free and there's no obligation at all — it's a firm number, valid for seven days, and you can accept, counter or walk away. We'd rather you took our number to compare than felt pressured.
What do I need on the day of collection?
Your ID, the charger and keys, and the cart where we can load it. We check that it matches your photos, sign off the sale agreement you already signed on your phone, and pay by EFT before we drive away. If the cart lives behind a gate, let security know we're coming or send us a visitor code with your booking.
