GBYou won't get what KBB promises - a ripoff! Their fine print says: "the Offer amount may be decreased. Kelley Blue Book and its affiliates are not responsible for Offer adjustments or if a Participating Dealer won't accept your vehicle. Dealers pay a fee to participate in the Kelley Blue Book Instant Cash Offer program." Fact: when I arrived at the dealer, without even seeing the car, the first thing he said was that his actual price would be substantially lower! And he was right! It was about 25% lower than the KBB promise!

GBWould give zero stars if I could Would give zero stars if I could. There are no legitimate offers just instant harassment from local dealerships via text and email. Weeks later I am still being contacted after telling them to leave me alone. Never even got a specific price.

GBWish I could rate this a zero Star Wish I could rate this a zero Star - what a scam - KBB instant cash offer was $9,015 - the Hyundai dealer in Bend Oregon offered me $7,000. I ask why the big difference - they said it was a rear wheel drive not an all-wheel drive - well duh, that's what it said on the Autotrader KBB instant offer! I asked if there was anything different about the car than was represented on the KBB offer - they said no...what a shady operation - can't believe I wasted an hour at that dealership and with the KBB instant offer - this is a SCAM

GBComplete scam Complete scam. Went to 4 different dealers who started contacting me after completing a KBB ICO. Each dealer printed me off a sheet FROM KBB with different numbers for my car in "good" condition and each sheet added an arbitrary amount for the options and mileage adjustment. This whole thing is a big joke. Go to CarMax where at least they don't lie to you.

GBThree words: Bait...and...screw. KBB's "cash offer" will generally be higher than Carvana's. The difference? Carvana will actually PAY YOU CASH for your car. With KBB, you have to take your car to the dealership... and negotiate. (It would be interesting to see if ANY KBB deal is ever actually completed with that value.) Wanna bet they will find enough "imperfections" on your trade-in to reduce their "instant" offer to at or below Carvana's? DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH KBB's INSTANT-CASH NONSENSE. It should actually be illegal.
