Got a quote for my lease on a Mazda 2018 CX9 29K miles from both Vroom and Carvana with Vroom being higher.
My research on both vendors however has me weary on Vroom, specifically because some of the transactions are FED EX overnights and some horror stories about not getting their check over a month, some 3 months.
Anyone recently sell their Chase Lease through Vroom? Carvana’s online process seems much safer, especially since they pay you the day of the pickup.
I sold my Mazda Chase lease to Shift. Seamless process. It was a few hundred less than Vroom, but the $200 same day pickup bonus and $100 referral credit nearly made up for the difference. Didn’t want to gamble with selling to Vroom; tried buying a used car through them and it was a horrible experience.
Vroom is just awful. I’ve used both vroom and Carvana.
Vroom had issues with my contract, brought the car on a black out date, gave me only one key fob after posting a picture clearly showing 2, took my trade in and are currently selling it with one fob when I gave them two (just shady) and a mountain of other contract F ups and delivery delays. Carvana was 1000% better.
DO NOT SELL THE VROOM! It took them 15 days to pay off my car after they picked it up and that was 25 days after I signed the bills of sale. Long story short it caused a late payment for me and Chrysler capital closed out my account with a 30 day late and hit my credit…
Look at Algo. I am in CT as well and have sold 2 cars to them this year (one of which was a lease). They were the highest offer on both and the process couldn’t have been easier.
I had quoted a wrangler 4xe on vroom 2 weeks ago just for fun. Monday of this week I quoted my grand cherokee to actually sell it to them. I started the process today to sell the grand cherokee, uploaded my license/reg/odometer and was waiting for their docusign paperwork. It came over a few hours later but was filled out with the wrangler! It had the wranglers VIN, the sell price of the wrangler, but the loan balance and odometer of the grand cherokee. My grand cherokee is now listed as “in process to sell” and the wrangler 4xe quote is still “expired”
If this is what I have to look forward to I’ll just take the slightly lower payout of carmax but the insanely more convenient process of driving my car there (15 minutes away) and walking away from it with a check the same day.
So just an update, I did the super fast virtual walk through with Algo, literally 5 minutes. He called me back 15 minutes later with an updated offer, docusign paperwork and scheduled pick up is next. So far its going smooth.
