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.

Scam website they price vehicles… Scam website they price vehicles extremely low so when you want to trade your vehicle at a dealership they use Kelly blue book to value it but when you buy a truck from a dealership its 10 times higher then what Kelly blue book prices. The only reason it exists is so that dealerships can scam you out of what your truck is actually worth.

F this website offered me 1,000$ for… F this website offered me 1,000$ for my car then sold my phone number to every dealership and I got phone calls all night and 7 in the morning to y on a Saturday form dealerships in hell not interested in. I work hard all week and look forward to sleeping in before my kids wake me up and these sales people call me to ask if I want to buy a car!!! Even if you tell them to remove your phone number they have some one different call. F this company it’s trash!!!!!!

I would not listen to what kbb values… I would not listen to what kbb values your car at. They low ball the crap out of you. I bought my car for 49000 dollars. This car is immaculate with low miles. These dirtbags gave me a value of 9800. Without seeing the car at all. I take it to car max and guess what it’s worth 14978. No wonder the car market is like it is. These people lowball everyone. BY PASS THESE RIP OFF ARTIST!!!!

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.
