subject: "we Buy Any Car And At A Price You Want!" - An Article Exploring The Truth Behind Such Statements [print this page] In this article, we look to investigate the truth behind the statement commonly made by most car buying firms: we buy any car and at the price you want. These car buying firms buy cars directly from private individuals in the market, and later sell them, sometimes after re-furnishing and repairs, at a profit. In this article we will limit our analysis only to the first action: i.e. direct buying of cars. Most of these firms have established themselves in the industry for long enough to know that most people who intend to sell their cars are actually out for selling cars which are either old or faulted, and need repairs and renovation, and this slogan of "we buy any car" most definitively stems from these firms intention to attract customers who feel that their cars are too faulted to be sold. The next part of the slogan: "at the price you want!" is certainly very inducing for such customers.
Initially, we will make an analysis of the procedure adopted by these firms in such car buying transactions. After having induced people through slogans of "we buy any car", these firms call upon them to visit their websites. These websites are purpose-built and serve as great marketing tools. Moreover, most firms offer online car valuations on their websites. After filling out a few details about the personal contact details and car, the customer can get an estimate of the valuation of his car. Such details include email and mobile number of the customer, registration number of the car, make and model, color and other relevant details. In addition, some firms may also ask the customers to send them an email of the pictures of the car so that their staff may be in a better position to assess the value of the car.
Considering all these details, the firm gives out a first value for the car. This value is basically an estimate of the firm's professional staff based on the details given by the customer online. This estimate is communicated to the customer, and if he accepts it, he proceeds to the firm's headquarters where the car is thoroughly checked. If the car's actual condition is different from that presented by the customer in the form, the valuation is revised. If the customer agrees with this value, he is made to sign some legal papers and the transaction is undertaken smoothly.
Most firms will take around 2 days to transfer the deposit of the value of the customer's car to customer's bank account. It is very important that customers consider the online reviews of various car buying firms before selling their cars to such firms, to avoid falling for the claims of the firms like: "we buy any car".
