You 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!

KBB Insta Cash Offer - UNLESS YOU ARE DESPERATE All KBB does for a Insta Cash Offer is lower the value of the car to a price that is extremely attractive to dealers. It’s the “I am desperate” price. Adding insult to this, you have to go to the dealer where they find every reason to lower the price further. Stay far away from this scam. If you can find a family member, friend or just anyone you remotely know sell the vehicle to them at a great price (but higher than KBB Insta Cash Offer) you will feel good about it.

KBB Vehicle Valuation Request -- DON'T BOTHER! On August 8th, I began helping a friend who needed to buy a new car and sell her old one (mechanic said he wouldn't advise fixing it anymore). We completed a request for Kelly Blue Book to value the current car so she could get an idea, for budgeting purposes, of what to expect in terms of sale price/trade in value. Just received the KBB response today -- September 10th -- after my friend's been driving her new car for over a week! If it takes 32 days for KBB to provide a valuation, why bother? In today's car market, you have to move quickly or new car options are snapped up and you must then wait weeks for another shipment to arrive, often from overseas. KBB was a major disappointment.

Three 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.

This is the worst website to check your… This is the worst website to check your the value of your car. After entering all the details of the car they still do not give you the value. DO NOT WASTE TIME ENTERING DETAILS OF YOUR CAR !!!!
