Best place to sell your vehicle.

Cars and bids is a great place to sell your vehicle. They make the process extremely easy.
I was able to get the price that I wanted for the vehicle. The post auction steps were also easy.

10/10 would recommend

I sold my car to a person accross the county with no issues. Every step was communicated clearly. I appreciate the folks at C&B for making the selling process easy.

However,
Purchasing a vehicle turned out to be terrible. I had the winning bid on a listing, but the seller refused to process the sale due to the bid amount. The post is still up 2 weeks later. A heavy fee should be placed on the seller that refuse to commit to the seller agreement. I was not offered compensation in the form of a waived bidding fee in the future or anything of the sort.

I will change my opinion/review if steps are taken to better the situation.

1971 Datsun 240z Selling Experience with Cars and Bids

That was probably the easiest selling experience I have had in my lifetime. Cars and Bids did an excellent job of communicating all the steps necessary for the successful sale of my 1971 Datsun 240z. I would definitely recommend selling your classic or exotic car with Cars and Bids!

C&B seller experience

Communication was quick and easy, and it pushed my auction to a true enthusiast market that knew the value of my car and was willing to pay what they thought it was worth! That excited me and earned me a sale with less stress and a higher selling value quicker than any other platform would have allowed me to achieve. I was nervous about a no reserve auction, but it paid off greatly in the end.

Cars and Bids allwed me to sell my car for a great price!

Cars and Bids was the perfect place to sell my 2015 Corvette. I set a reasonable reserve, and remained engaged with bidders and prospective bidders the whole time, answering all questions and providing additional photos and videos on request. My car sold for $5,000 above my reserve price. I'm very happy with my Cars and Bids experience.
