Frequently Asked Questions

How do you calculate the value of the cars listed?

We use an algorithm that analyzes various data points, including market trends, mileage, car condition, and historical prices for similar models. This helps us determine a fair market value and compare it to the listed price

The charts compare the car’s current price with average prices for similar models. You can see trends for different factors like the car’s age, mileage, and condition. This visual tool helps you understand whether the listing price is above or below the market average.

The price is influenced by the car’s make, model, year, mileage, condition, and location. Additionally, supply and demand in the used car market can cause price fluctuations. Please note that we don’t set the price, but the seller does.

Our pricing data is updated daily to ensure accuracy. We continuously track listings and sales across multiple platforms to keep our data current.

We provide a comparison between the car’s listing price and its market value based on similar models. If the listing price is below the market value, it may indicate a good deal. We also highlight the price difference on the page combined with a label Good, Bad, or Fair.

The mileage data is provided by the seller. We recommend verifying the mileage during the inspection and checking the car’s service history for any inconsistencies.

We don’t directly offer financing, but we provide links to trusted third-party partners that can assist with financing options tailored to your needs.
