You don't get a proper valuation for your vehicle using a site like that...

They will buy off of you and sell on for a profit... The price they pay isn't a true market reflection.

£1500 - don't sell yourself short - very economical - no cambelt - Suzuki engine - 40mpg plus - low road tax and as GVW is 2000kg it's not restricted to van speeds. Payload 736kg. Perfect one man band set up with 400L on board.

(I reckon my 56 plate doblo on 38k is worth about £2000 and I keep it as a back up.)
It's a game of three halves!

Werobanycar/van work on CAP prices (the auction average price) minus a percentage, so you won't even get trade in price for it, they then charge a £50 admin fee, and walk around knocking off £50 for every mark on the thing when it lands at their place, the idea being that they can buy them in, and if needs be punt them straight through to auction and turn a profit, conning twunts.

The easiest way to get a price is to have a look at what similar vans with similar mileage have sold for, then if you want it gone quick, drop a couple of hundred quid off of that price.

Not my experience.

I took an old car to them for valuation.  They don't go round knocking money off for every mark.  They expect an old vehicle to be in pretty poor state - they didn't knock a penny off my Jag and its paintwork was pretty duff and quite marked.  They are looking for damage rather than just marking.

Their offer was pretty much OK and I was under no pressure to take it.  The reason the offer was fair was that the auto gearbox needed a £2,500 repair and the central locking sender was shot (£1,200).  Neither of those things came into the equation - they didn't even start it.

So, if you're selling a vehicle with major mechanical faults they are definitely worth a try.  In the OP's case this isn't relevant but webuyanycar can be useful.

No.  I discussed it with the buyer and it's just not part of their valuation procedure.  They take no note of mechanical condition.  So you're talking through your hat, I'm afraid.

OK. I'll bite.

At one point in the purchase process, there was a place to put in mechanical condition.  In my case I put "poor".  I was given a price.

Then when I took it in I discussed it with the buyer.  I was given the money that came out of the valuation on the internet with no quibbles whatsoever.

Sometimes I absolutely hate some of the know-all codpieces on this forum.  State something about what you did, get called "dishonest".  Then get called a liar.  Nice place.

Pot, kettle, black  :P

Cod is now an endangered species, don't go cutting them to pieces, Captain Birdseye doesn't like it.

As Toshimuri would say (I'm not saying I agree here though, I'm just quoting for the sake of bulking out this post and prolonging your ridicule) "You should never allow others to control your emotions", which you are suggesting you do with the word "hate", it's all about every action having a reaction, or as the Buddhists know it, Karma, maybe some meditation may help?

Have a word with Tosh, he can get you kitted out with an orange robe and a haircut very cheap, he has connections  ;D

"Not part of their valuation procedure"

"their" = buyer.  "Buyer" was the last noun, so "their", under normal  grammatical rules refers to the buyer.  Sorry that you're unable to read.

Vin

I'm sorry you feel angry, no, really I am (okay, maybe I'm not, but let's pretend I am just to make you feel better, I can tell you need to feel good about yourself).  :P

The companies terms and conditions are the companies terms and conditions, I never rewrote their website, I just linked to it, I can't help, or alter the fact that the website, and the terms and conditions (which represent the legal contract, should you choose to use their service) differ greatly from your personal experience, but then you always get the one  ::)roll

My wife used to act in a similar manner when I get to see the bank statements, but eventually she saw that the situation was futile, living in denial causes stress, have you tried that meditation yet, it really could help.  ;D
