Depending on the age of the car, you might be better off selling the car instead of trading it.and getting good trade in value in the Columbia area?
Very inexperienced at this! TIA
I would say that is probably the case.Depending on the age of the car, you might be better off selling the car instead of trading it.
Good call on the Kelly blue book. It is a joke. Dealers use that NADA yellow book.my father in law is a used car salesman and like the above poster said, you're better off selling it yourself on craigslist or newspaper. Used car dealerships are in it to make money. Their not going to give you an offer to where they can't make money for it at the auction which is where 75% of trade ins go. In saying that, if your car is in great shape and a newer model they may keep it on the lot and try to flip it quick. Check the black book for your car value before doing anything, don't go by the KBB. Hope this helps a little.
1995 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4wd, my mechanic says it's to the point of diminishing returns! Yeah, I always sell on the open market when I do this, but this time I have to make a pretty quick turn around.
That is most likely to case. If you don't have the yen for selling and buying, get a friend who does to sell it for you and give him an appropriate commission. Sometimes, Used car dealers will put cars on their lots for people - for a commission unless they are very close friends with the seller. Anyhow, selling is almost always better than trading from a financial standpoint.Depending on the age of the car, you might be better off selling the car instead of trading it.
