I did check…I always like a paper trail, and, as they say, a bird in the hand…Especially with the difficulty of getting a human contact at Carvana…the thought of the money not showing up and then having to chase it down…
I didn’t need the funds ASAP, so it didn’t bother me that it took a few days to clear.
Have you reappraised in those two weeks? Hopefully it went up. I had the same situation, def not 12k profit lol, but they would not honor the highest initial offer because 7 days had passed and the offer expired even though I uploaded and did everything g I could on my end. Still never heard from them and ended up selling to Carmax for $100 less than Carvana initial offer.
Have a Tundra from last summer that is $8000+ in positive equity with dealer buyout via a Carvana quote.
Carvana won’t accept this based on previous posts. How much risk in buying this with taxes and early penalty fee included and then flipping to Carvana directly from me? Still stand to net $5000+ with those pulling me down.
Also any recent data points for Us Bank dealer buyout direct to Vroom?
Waiting on Carvana to reach out may not be the best tactic. I used their text feature to get a human, and continued to “bug” or ask questions daily until I had it in writing (in text) that the deal was locked up. From here things seemed to go pretty smoothly. That business model is a hot mess. It is really a wonder they are making any money.
Process wasn’t so bad. Submitted on Wednesday. Heard back from Carvana on Monday. Uploaded requested additional documents. Picked up on Wednesday. Made a little over $2,000.
