Sounds worth it.

You pay $100, they help you find best offer for your car.

If you can find better offer, they refund you the money.

 

Anyone tried using this to sell their rides?

Will appreciate if can share feedback on this system.

 

And thinking whether to use this to sell my car. :)

Didn't had good experience when I sold my van thru them. Their support end right after they introduce you to the dealer. The dealer cheque wrote 2 cheque as the first cheque amount is incorrect. However when I bank in. The 2nd cheque bounced. The dealer says keep come out with pattern and I ask them quotz for help. Their support was non existent. Until today been over 3 years still did not get the cheque for the dealer or the refund from quotz.

Hmm... my experience with them was different, it was good though. [grin] Sold my ride through them recently. Price offered through them was higher than what being offered by my own dealer, documentation went through smoothly too :D

guess to gauge any services as good or no good...it is during problem situation....if they don't bother to help...then the service is no good..

Well, the one that is bad is the buyer (dealer). Dun remember the amount but i think its like SGD50 or so as the buyer do not want to absorb the bounce cheque fee.

When I report to quotz, they say they ask the buyer and the buyer says that the SGD50 is because my car leak oil. Nonsense excuse as the buyer check the car thoroughly before passing me the cheque. Quotz says there is nothing they can do and ask me to contact the buyer directly.

 

Other than that, I would say it is quite convenient.

1) Drive down to Ubi

2) Pay the fee

3) They take photos

4) After 3 or 5 days the auction price is out

5) you decide if you want to sell or not

6) You drive to the dealer and they pay you

 

If you want to sell thru them, you go and ask a few dealer first then u go to quotz so that you know roughly the market price.

my experience with them back in Jan 2010 was very pleasant w/o any hiccups.

 

came down.

they took pics

dealer start bidding next day

i watched online the biddings at home

within 5pm the same day bidding started, i managed to get the highest bidder. last 30mins of bidding was very frantic.

quotz called to say if i agree or not

i agreed, dealer was a young chap who came down to my place and ask me when i can let go my car to him.

settled on a date

dealer came down my mscp on the agreed date and collect my car and i collect my cheque.

I got a higher price from trading in, but it gives you a gauge whether the price Ur dealer quote u for trade in is reasonable.

 

if did not accept dealer bidded price thru quotz, still hv to pay $100?

Means you cleared your own loan first then they give you the cheque for the full sum or they give you the cheque for your "cashback" net of full settlement? Anyway i feel like using them. Do u still have this successful dealer's contact? If yes, can PM me? Maybe i contact him directly and negotiate with him (since he is established to be good).

That's very surprising. Currently without going thru quotz, i already have an indicative offer from a dealer that is +$3k above trade in offered.

yes, i've nvr heard of trade-in prices being good....

the reason why quotz works well is becos they enable the dealers to bid against each other n the car owner benefits fr this competition...

when i sold my car thru quotz a few yrs ago, i think there were >30 bids for my car....imagine u try calling 30 dealers urself! [cool]

Cannot work that way.

Think you better go to Quotz for dealer offers.

 

Reason being :

- Some dealers want big cars, some want small car. You need to approach the right dealer to sell.

- Some dealers are very full of cars now, they will offer low price for yours. Those that have empty inventory will offer high price.

- Some dealers have exactly the same car as you. They will offer very low price for yours, since no point to have 2 of the same car sitting in the showroom.

I am looking to buy a second hand car and was looking into different online source such as sgcarmart one shift cats classifies . Is the price on sgcarmart most honest to the price that I will actually end up paying? I'm a first time buyer and still trying to figure the loan system if I am to buy a picanto yr2005plate I will have to renew my Coe in 2015 how much will I be paying. Will this amount be lump in to my existing car loan or it's going to be on a separate monthly loan. ??

 

Overall I hope to spend 500plus or below per month only on car loan

Yup, the $100 u can only get back if u manage to find a dealer that quote u 1% more than the highest bid from quotz.. and it cannot be trade in
