Are there companies like mycarauction.com or CarStub that operate in Northern California? Have a lessor released title (well coming today according to Informed Delivery), but just learned that Carvana, CarMax, etc. won’t work with those. It looks like both mycarauction and CarStub are in Southern Ca…

I am mean. If it would be my driveway, I’d call them and say: " i am waiting until end of day today, tomorrow morning car goes into public parking where you pay when you leave the space locked. Keys are sent usps priority. Best of luck" But that’s just me.

I sold my car the carauction in Aug and went through the same process even though I didn’t have to wait for the tow driver to to pick up my car. I gave the 2 keys to the driver who gave me the receipt after a quick inspection.

@kaz5 Do you mean you are still waiting for them to pick up the car since August?

No, they picked up my car within a week. I actually deliberately delayed the pick up unless the MBFS posted the payment in my account. There was a delay in payment in carauction’s side and when I contacted the person who inspected the car, it was resolved quickly. You can try to contact their centra…

American honda does not allow 3rd party buy outs unless its at a honda or acura dealership which offered me $23000. I called up mycarauction did an appraisal and wa…

I wish the individual I spoke to late last week knew the proper steps and relayed them; their buyer told me I would have to buy my car first (which I was going to do anyway). I would have sold my vehicle immediately had I known he was incorrect. Then, on Monday, three days after our conversation, I …

Kris is the guy who bought my car as well, can confirm that the purchase part of the process was drama-free. Car finally picked up today, almost a month after they bought it. Turns out the transportation company wrote down my phone number wrong… :man_facepalming:

I am going to contact the person again with this information. If he still insists I have to purchase the car, perhaps I can reach out to Kris. Now I am not sure whether I should get the repair to the car done before selling it or sell it as-is and submit a new quote with the damage disclosed.

I was going to pay off vehicle and sell to carmax but they wanted me register title and I would have to pay taxes

I talked to them late last year… I think they got bought out by a CDJR dealer or chain. Got a decent offer but I went elsewhere.
