Accept trade in

[dr. d]

and the sales agent can be the one to sell your car
i see it in sulit.com for ex. a mitsubishi slaes person selling a used toyota

and i seem to feel, that the casa will give a better trade-in price, if the car being traded in, is their brand and not the competition's..

There are casas that have used car dealerships. One example is the Laus group who pretty much have their finger dipping in every pie. Toyota also have their certified pre-owned cars. These generally offer better trade-in prices than those who don't have their own used car dealership.

Dealership trade-ins is very convenient for car owners. No need to look for buyers. Get a credit on vehicle value immediately. But that convenience has a price.

If one is not in a rush, a much better price can be attained by selling the vehicle yourself.

As an example: Back in 2005, I had the dealer assess a 95 Civic ESI M/T w/ less than 60K kms mileage. Dealer offered 90K (trade-in value) which is absolutely ridiculous. Eventually sold the vehicle by myself to a private buyer for 195K.

Those are indeed helpful inputs. Thanks guys!

They said that if you bring your car to the same car brand that you have, the appraisal value is higher that to their competitors? Can anyone confirm.. thanks!
