How selling in Ruimsig works
Ruimsig is on our regular Roodepoort route. There's nothing to arrange on your side beyond choosing a collection slot — we bring the transport, the paperwork is already signed on your phone, and payment happens before we leave.
Here's how it works: you send photos and answer a short form; we reply with a firm written offer within 24 hours; if you're happy, you accept and sign on your phone and pick a two-hour collection window. On the day we check the cart matches the photos, load it, and pay by EFT before we drive away.
Ruimsig is on our weekly Gauteng run; we confirm a collection date with the offer, usually inside a week.
What we pay in Ruimsig
Most private carts we buy in Ruimsig fall between R40 000 – R180 000, with lithium four- and six-seaters at the top. These are typical private-sale bands (updated 2026-09-01); the offer we send is the exact figure we'll pay.
On the golf estates around Ruimsig, a cart is transport, not a toy — the school run, the clubhouse, the beach gate. That keeps demand high, and it means we can usually resell a good Ruimsig cart within the same golf estate, which is why our offers here are strong. Golf estate rules on speed, lights and roadworthiness matter too: a cart that already meets them is worth more.
In a city the size of Ruimsig the logistics are the easy part: we're in the area often, we drive our own transport and we don't need you to move the cart anywhere. Pick a two-hour window in the booking step and we'll be 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
What we look at in your photos
Six phone photos are enough — front, back, both sides, the seats and the battery pack. From those we can see almost everything that sets the price:
- Battery type and age — the single biggest factor. A dated invoice or a photo of the date stamp helps.
- Tyres, brakes and steering — we look at tread, brake feel and play in the steering.
- Charger, keys and manual — a working charger and both keys make the cart easier to resell, and our offer stronger.
- Extras — rear flip seat, lights, lift kit, sound system, enclosure. Tidy factory-style extras add real value.

Questions sellers ask
Do I need to arrange access for you at Ruimsig?
No — we come to your home. If the cart is in a complex or behind a gate, a visitor code or a note at the gate is all we need.
How soon can you collect in Ruimsig?
Usually within 7 days of accepting. Ruimsig is on our weekly Gauteng run; we confirm a collection date with the offer, usually inside a week.
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.
