My little 2009 Dodge Caliber had been a good little put put machine for 4+ years. But it can't tow much and it sucked in the snow... so its time to get a Jeep. I read that CarMmax buys cars outright and figured I'd let them make an offer. I KBB'd and Edmunds my car at $6800 tops for trade in and $7600 for private party sale. Carmax offered $8500. I took the money.
Selling the car was fast, 30 minutes for an appraisal, sign some papers and walk out with a check. Easy peasy.
