Service is reducing trade-in prices Service is reducing trade-in prices. It used to be that consumers trusted KBB to help them determine the fair trade or resale value of a car. Now, what KBB does is provide obscenely low cash offers AND broadcast those obscenely low offers to every dealership in your local area. As a result, you not only get spammed by every dealership, you also lose out on fair offers for your car because ALL of these dealers know that KBB sent you with an obscenely undervalued offer, so they can offer you one or two thousand above that - or even less than the KBB offer - and appear "generous" when, in fact the trade-in value of your car was much higher. Reported this to the FTC. In my case, every other "Book Value" service valued my car at several thousand dollars more than KBB. I also checked around on the used car prices and private seller sales prices of the same model car - again several thousand higher than KBB.

KBB Instant Cash - Worked for us Turned in a honest KBB cash back evaluation on our 2009 Ford Escape. Went to the dealer not expecting positive results. A 20 minute evaluation was done by the manager who came back and asked if we are willing to accept the KBB Instant Cash Offer. We came back in the evening when we were both available to sign over the title. A different manager took care of us and we were in and out in a short time period. The check was mailed to us and arrived 3 days later. Cochran VW and Infiniti in Wexford, PA was up front, attentive and professional. The experience was beyond expectations.

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.

Bait-and-switch scam - don't be fooled They gave me an instant price quote online, and when I visited 2 local dealers both of them reduced the price by about 10% even though they both agreed with the condition and all criteria I entered online. The first one added a $1000 "certification fee" and the second one just said they adjusted it because of "the economy". I had gotten the price quote 3 hours earlier. This is a complete BAIT-AND-SWITCH - save your time and don't use it.
