Vehicle Value Guidebooks and Your Wrecked Car

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, January 22, 2013

Your car has been in an accident and you need to sell your wrecked car.

How do you sell your wrecked car? Where do you start? The experts at DamageMAX can tell you where NOT to start…

Don't start with Kelley Blue Book - KBB's values are inflated specifically for Auto Dealers to use on window stickers for their used vehicle inventory. Kelley is notorious for very high retail figures that the dealer can discount deeply and make the customer feel better about the purchase price (like they got a better deal). Consider this…would you PAY Kelley Blue Book Price for a used car on a dealers lot? No! Then why would you ask Kelley Blue Book for your used car? Why emulate a process that you seek to avoid? Start high & work down? Car dealers get a bad rap for this same exact sales tactic but the average everyday person presumes to resort to the same strategy?

Folks the process is broken and due for an overhaul…

NADA Retail is more realistic and a guidebook that utilizes transactional data that comes from New Car Dealers in the US. That said, NEVER use retail as a starting point for pricing any damaged vehicle because that vehicle will never be CLEAN again, nor will it be RETAIL material.

CARFAX will show vehicle history that the vehicle has been in an accident. This is called STIGMA history and it is indeed derogatory.

Car Dealers will not want your vehicle for trade-in, and they will unfortunately avoid giving you a trade-in figure at all costs. They will have no choice but to tell you it is better to sell on your own, because the number they are forced to give you will be so low, you will most likely leave the dealership incensed. Is this the dealers fault? No. Did they treat you unfairly? Absolutely not. Your vehicle is no longer worth what it was after a collision and it never will be. No matter how much you owe, or how attached you are to your car, it's worth at least 30% less after the repairs. This is proof that DIMINISHED VALUE exists and can be substantiated in every state.

Whether your wrecked vehicle is repaired or not, the best way to trade-in the vehicle is with a firm offer from DamageMAX – the damaged vehicle experts. Our Clean-Break TIP (Trade-in Program) lets you walk away from your wrecked car and ride today in a new vehicle at any new or used vehicle dealer in the USA!

It's your right not to repair your vehicle. You may request the settlement check and not repair the vehicle. If you wrecked your car and simply just don't feel comfortable driving the car again, please consider selling or trading-in your damaged vehicle to DamageMAX. DamageMAX will buy your wreck and you keep the insurance check and ride today in a new car!

Selling your Wrecked Vehicle Fast & Free

Joseph Coupal - Monday, January 07, 2013

Online may appear to be the best option, but the internet can be a scary place. Especially if you are in distress and trying to get rid of your wrecked vehicle quickly because you are paying storage at a tow yard and have liability insurance only. Craig'slist.com sounds good, because it’s free. But it does not attract international buyers and parts buyers that would maximize the price you can get for your wrecked vehicle - it attracts bottom feeders looking to take advantage of your difficult situation. AutoTrader and Cars.com are focused on "front-line ready" vehicles that could be retailed immediately - not wrecked vehicles. There are auctions out there too - but eBay can't guarantee you a price instantly on your damaged vehicle, in fact a listing can take days or even weeks to produce a single bid.

DamageMAX can instantly price your wrecked vehicle and pick it up for free! We are wrecked vehicle experts and can pay top dollar, instantly!

If you have comprehensive insurance coverage and your repairs are covered, you have the right not to repair your vehicle. You may request the settlement check and not repair the vehicle.

Rent-a-Car Companies Don't Repair their Wrecked Vehicles - Should You?

Joseph Coupal - Monday, December 31, 2012

Car Rental Agencies, Leasing Companies and Manufacturers only repair cosmetic damage to vehicles in their fleet. These repairs are generally under $2000. Vehicles that have more significant damage are sold instead of repaired – especially if there is structural damage. Why? Because the pros know that a damaged vehicle's value is permanently diminished, even if it is expertly repaired. Factor in the cost and time associated with repairing the vehicle, it is a no-brainer for these large institutions - sell the vehicle immediately after the wreck - TIME IS MONEY!

If the "smart money" vehicle pros are selling instead of repairing - YOU SHOULD TOO! Just like the stock market, the big banks and multinational companies always seem to make the right move - and you are left holding the bag. DamageMAX can't help you with your stocks, be we can give you the advantage the big guys have had for years - we will pay top dollar for your wrecked car AS-IS. Don't drive that subcompact rental waiting around for the body shop to fix your car - take the cash from DamageMAX now and buy a new car.

Big institutions have been selling their wrecked cars for years - it is time for a paradigm shift for the wrecked vehicle consumer. Just as you would not repair a broken television, clock or microwave, don't repair your wrecked vehicle. Sell it to DamageMAX and let us worry about what to do with your wrecked car. We buy damaged vehicles every day and specialize in your once-in-a-lifetime problem. DamageMAX lets you be an insider!

It’s your right not to repair your vehicle. You may request the settlement check and not repair the vehicle. If you wrecked your car and simply just don't feel comfortable driving the car again, please consider selling your damaged vehicle to DamageMAX.

Don't Drive your Wrecked Car off the Fiscal Cliff

Joseph Coupal - Friday, December 28, 2012

DamageMAX buys your WRECK and you keep the insurance CHECK!

Fiscal cliff” is the popular shorthand term used to describe the conundrum that the U.S. government will face at the end of 2012, when the terms of the Budget Control Act of 2011 is scheduled to go into effect.

Among the laws set to change at midnight on December 31, 2012, are the end of last year’s temporary payroll tax cuts, the end of certain tax breaks for businesses, shifts in the alternative minimum tax that would take a larger bite, the end of the tax cuts from 2001-2003, and the beginning of taxes related to President Obama’s health care law. At the same time, the spending cuts agreed upon as part of the debt ceiling deal of 2011 will begin to go into effect. According to Barron's, over 1,000 government programs - including the defense budget and Medicare are in line for "deep, automatic cuts."

Big multinational companies are rushing to pay dividends and sell assets by the end of 2012. The smart money is on selling - don't be left behind. In the 2008 financial crisis the little guy got left holding the bag while Wall Street got bailed out. Used vehicle values are at an all time high - don't be fooled again – sell now, before vehicle values take a dive.

If you own a wrecked car, now is the time to sell. Don't add insult to injury by driving off the fiscal cliff. DamageMAX will buy your wreck and you keep the insurance check! DamageMAX specializes in damaged/wrecked, inoperable and problem vehicles.

DamageMAX pays the MAX!

How CARFAX kills Wrecked Vehicle Resale Value (WVRV)

Joseph Coupal - Wednesday, December 26, 2012

Vehicle history reports such as CarFax and AutoCheck are a critical part of the used vehicle transaction. If you are selling a vehicle with a "Bad CarFax" you can expect to see up to a 16% reduction in selling price - and this is after you've sunk the money into repairing your wrecked car!

Nearly a quarter of a billion (250 million) vehicle history reports are purchased every year in the United States. That's one for every car on the road. However, that statistic is somewhat misleading - the average car for sale has 4-5 vehicle history reports pulled - by multiple potential buyers (consumers and dealers). An independent consumer study indicated that 3 out of 4 used car buyers bought a vehicle history report as part of their research.

What do these incredible statistics mean? Even if you repair your car after a collision, there is no way to hide the accident from potential buyers. Even if the car was repaired to your manufacturer's specifications, its value is impaired permanently because virtually every buyer will know it was wrecked and they assume the worst. This is called STIGMA history - a scarlet letter for the wrecked vehicle owner.

It is time for a PARADIGM SHIFT on handling your vehicle post accident. Just as you would not repair a broken television, clock or microwave, don't repair your wrecked vehicle. Sell it to DamageMAX and let us worry about what to do with your wrecked car. We buy damaged vehicles every day and specialize in your once-in-a-lifetime problem.

It your right not to repair your vehicle. You may request the settlement check and not repair the vehicle. If you wrecked your car and simply just don't feel comfortable driving the car again, please consider selling your damaged vehicle to DamageMAX. DamageMAX will buy your wreck and you keep the insurance check! Thought you could not have your cake and eat it too? Not so with DamageMAX!

The Sum of the Parts are Usually Worth More than the Whole, Especially in the Damaged Vehicle World

Joseph Coupal - Monday, December 24, 2012

DamageMAX announces education series for consumer awareness.

The sum of the parts are usually worth more than the whole, especially in the damaged vehicle world.

Here are some great examples:

  1. The Engine from a 2006 Nissan Maxima is worth about $500
    • FALSE – an complete engine assembly sells for $1500 on average
  2. The Right Front Door from this car is worth:
    1. $250
    2. $500
    3. $650
    4. $850 – if you guessed $850 you are correct
  3. The transmission from this vehicle is worth:
    1. $500
    2. $750
    3. $1500
    4. $2000 – yes, on average the transmission will fetch $2000

2/3rds of all accidents are front end collisions which creates demand for those parts from the windshield, forward. That includes the engine and the transmission in almost all configurations. If your vehicle has a good engine and transmission and the miles are below 85,000 it has significant value left that you can convert to cash. Sell your wrecked vehicle to DamageMAX and get a head start on a replacement vehicle.

Don’t Fix your Wrecked Car – Sell It Now

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, December 18, 2012
