Questions Phil gets asked

How did you come up with that number?

“We use a variety of sources, including local and national auctions and the latest data from independent websites that track vehicle pricing and value through the most recent transactions.”

Do I have to buy a car here to sell you mine?

“No. You do not have to purchase a car from us to receive the offer presented to you. I would point out that we also have a great sales team and a large inventory of new and used vehicles, but the offer stands on its own.”

Can I get more money for my car?

“The offer I have presented is on par and competitive with other vehicles in the area of the same year and mileage.”

If I get a higher offer later, will you match it?

“The offer made for your car is our high offer. We understand another dealership may give you more, but we feel confident our number is fair.”

If I clean it up and replace a few items, can I get more?

“We would be glad to reevaluate your car once you have done anything that helps its value. Text or call me when you are ready and I will take another look to see whether the offer has increased.”
