I could have gotten more if I sold it private party but there is no way I wanted to deal with idiots on FB marketplace or people in general.
So I got online buy out quotes from both Carvana (the car elevator people) and Carmax.. the exact same car was valued $1400 higher by Carvana.
Not sure what the car I sold listed for (I'd assume somewhere between $18k-$20k-ish but I got the cash in my account the same day.
So Carvana paid me more and put the cash in my account within 5 hours. Not to shabby.
