It might just depend on your perception (and location)...

And I was just reading an article where the east side of Oregon wants to join Idaho! 😆
Hey, where the heck is Michigan in that map!? 😳

2019 Buick Regal TourX - Carvana

Used 2019 Buick Regal TourX Essence Wagon 4D for $29,990 with 14,872 miles. | Carvana

www.carvana.com

There it is with a purchase pending. Fun stuff.

For pricing, they'll probably add $3,000 to whatever they paid you.

Actually $3,600, but it is still a win-win for both sides. Carvana can pay top dollar because they can sell for top dollar.

I received an offer of $34.5k for my '20 GS with 13k miles from Carvana. Vroom only offered $31.6k I paid $33.5k back in November '20. I'm a serial car shopper so I had to at least check but I'll be holding on to my GS for a while longer.

 

[Mordor67]

26300 is what they paid me.


19 Essence with just Sights and Sounds. 15k miles on it.

Looks like I bought your TourX. Anything you can tell me about it?

Ran great. LCAs were replaced under warranty.

It was a sweet car.

Weren't you tuned too?

 

[RedX]

Weren't you tuned too?

Correct.

If Mordor would like to buy the cable I could also email the tune to him/her.

It ran perfectly with no issues. It really is a great car.

That's great to hear. Where do I get the cable

 

[RedX]

I can sell you the cable and email you the tune. It runs for like over $400 new.

PM me if you are interested.

Since this car sold so quick, I am wondering if carvana can offer better prices for specific vehicles since they can see what people are searching for. They probably knew they had X number of people searching for one and knew they could turn it over quick. If they are doing that, I wonder if you can game the system when you are looking to sell. Just search out your vehicle from several different IPs and maybe you can get a better offer.

Fun story. The first offer was 26300. I went back a week later and re ran the offer to see if it went up or down and it went down to 25300 or something. I didn't save that offer so when I sold it they still had 26300 in their system although the updated offer was less. Since I didn't accept it they reverted back to the previously offered number which was higher.

But I wonder if you searched as a buyer if it would have changed something in their system.

Also when you posted this thread, I along with others checked out their offer so they may have seen the potential to get a bunch of TourX's so started to drop the offers in case they got multiples.

 

[RegalMN]

I have to admit the story of redx selling to carvana and then finding the buyer is fun to read. I don't know why...maybe just an example of how small our world is now

I am sure they just go by their sales and reported sales from other dealers. They don't go by clicks, but by actual sales.

I wanted a very specific TourX. Been looking for months. Had a Sport Red preferred for sale here in FL awhile back but I let it get away. Found many white,gray,black, silver but I wanted red dammit! And beige interior, and Essence. When I saw those Brembos, sold!

 

[idahoguru]

Tourx will be picked up tomorrow. I have a black set of 3D SpiderMax floor mats (5 piece set that include the cover for the floor hump in the second row). I will also include the 4 doors storage pockets that fit in the handles and 2 key fobs rubber protectors. All for $110 shipped. I can do paypal or arrange for pickup if you are in southeast Idaho or SLC area ($20 discount for pickup).

So one of my Tourx is sold. Have mixed feeling about this decision and hate to see it go but I did not want to go into retirement with 5 cars. Will be selling couple of cars in the next couple of months leaving my truck and Yukon XL.

Bummer, but understandable... Did you pry the keys to the Pearl out of the wife's hands or did you get rid of your Merlot?

Sold the Merlot. I will start driving the pearl soon though it will be next to be sold though might do it on my own because we bought it new and has been pampered since it joined our family. Trying to see if I keep it but our plans to travel months at a time and not sure I want to deal with storage
