How to Get Cash for Your Car—And Keep Your Dignity
For better or for worse, in sickness and in health—no, we aren't talking about your spouse. We're talking about your car. The two of you have been through a lot, but you don't have to wait until death do you part.
You're only human, and your life changes. Maybe you need to make room for a new baby or a new puppy; maybe you're concerned about the environment; maybe you just want to be wild for a change. All good reasons! It's your call, but rest assured, when the time comes, you can get a good bundle of cash for your car.
The Old Ways Aren't Always the Best Ways
Statistics show you'll make more money from a private party car sale than you would with any other method. But those numbers don't reflect the reality of a personal sale. You'll play phone tag and rearrange your schedule to meet with strangers. Your precious set of wheels will be invaded by all sorts of visitors, some of whom have no intention of making a serious bid. After you've sorted out the gawkers from buyers, you'll have to haggle over the price and finish up the paperwork.
Don't think of this cash as pure profit, though. Before you can lure buyers to view your car, you'll have to pony up for an ad in the newspaper or another major outlet. For example, you'll part with $80 for a listing on eBay Motors, and the venerable Auto Trader charges $39 for a three-week run. On top of that, you'll have to pay for title check reports, auto inspections, car detailing, and more. Combined with the pure grunt work you'll put into selling your vehicle, you may end up making a heavier investment than you intended.
Where else can you turn? Oh yes, the D-word: the dealerships. Granted, they're always lurking, and they'll take your car, no matter what the condition—we'll give them that. But they present a different sort of obstacle course. You'll face their high-pressure sales tactics and their shell-game-like numerical manipulation—all so they can give you the least cash possible for your car. If your auto could talk, it would tell you that you both deserve a little more dignity.
