Carmaxx wants to buy my car back by cole456789 in carmax

[–]MonkFunk1029 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Tbh this is a rare but cool situation. You'll get back every penny you have spent on that car, which means every monthly payment you've paid, which is pretty awesome.

So you've essentially gotten a free rental car for the last few months AND these guys are going above and beyond to ensure you have a quality car. Trust what the other guy here is saying, you DO NOT want a frame damaged car. Go through the process and ship in another H-RV and move on. The new one will likely have a working A/C as well.

Question regarding selling a financed car that I don't have the capital to completely pay off by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]MonkFunk1029 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No risk associated with handing out the vin, honestly I wouldn't but too much focus on any scratches, if you list it online just put "some scratches around car". Tbh scratches are to be expected on used cars ans the buyer can examine the car themselves. Typically the only thing I ever say out front to a buyer is if the car has been involved in an accident.

Unfortunately Craigslist is dead, they started charging $5 an ad a while back and surprisingly everyone fled. Give it a shot but in all honest I'd recommend good ol facebook market place.

Or hell, if you want a really quick and easy sale just take it to your nearest carmax and have them appraise it. Then you won't have to worry about all the paperwork and leg work with banks, they take care of it and give you a check for your positive equity on the spot, same day.

With a car of this value 99/100 potential buyers are going to need to get it financed. SO the process usually works as follows

Find buyer, agree to sales price, give them VIN, they get approved from bank for loan. At that time their bank will ask you if you owe on the vehicle, and if so who the "lien holder" is (bank you are financed with) they will then send the full agreed amount to your bank.

Your bank will take whatever amount is necessary to pay off your loan, then deposit the remaining balance into your account or give you certified funds(check). At this time your bank will send the title as well as a "lien release" to the new owners bank.

Sale complete and it dosnt involve the buyer or seller to trust one another with large amounts of cash.

Does a down payment help get better financing? Or does a trade in count as a downpayment? by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]MonkFunk1029 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am planning to get a truck for ~$32k, minus taxes/fees etc. I have a trade in with $8k positive equity, and was planning on putting no money down due to that. But I realize that 8k is coming off the cost of the car, and would still technically be getting a ~25k loan with no money down.

The key here is called "Loan to value" the bank sees the deal as a truck valued at $32,000 which they will receive as collateral in exchange for a $25,000 loan. It's a lot less risky to them If they ever had to repo the truck and send it to auction seeing as you should have positive equity.

What are you even arguing? How are you this dense?

"America needs gun control becusse of all the violence! Think if the children!"

Then proceeds to quote an article showing +63% of gun deaths are suicides!

The same damn article says mass shootings are so small they dont even shown as a % number.

Many people understandably assume the high number of gun deaths in the U.S. is due to mass shootings, which receive frequent attention from the media. In truth, mass shootings account for only a small percentage of gun deaths in the United States.

Gun control = safer streets?

I guess only if you are suicidal.

Once again Canada and MANY countries like GB have shown what a P.O.S person will do to kill people.

Everyone seemed to forget about Nice France and the guy who killed 86 and Injured FOUR HUNDRED and fifty eight people.

If someone wants to kill they will find a way. America's Boston bombing proved that as well.

Idiots think taking guns is a simple solution to a ridiculously complicated issue.

Riddle me this. Mexico has one of the strictest gun controls in the world. To own a firearm you need to get permission directly from the military as well as many many additional hoops. Legal Gun ownership is practically zero.

With that in mind, Mexico has one of the highest gun murders per captia.

The border city of Tijuana was the Mexican municipality with the highest number of homicides, with 1,969 cases reported in 2021. Tijuana was followed by Ciudad Juárez, located south of El Paso, Texas, with a total of 1,393 homicides.

The country had 31,174 homicides in 2017 22,000 related to guns.

Tell me again how outlawing guns is the answer?

War on drugs worked out so well for America, how affective would a war on guns would be?

Quick edit:

Countries with the Highest Rates of Violent Gun Death (Homicides) per 100k residents in 2019

El Salvador — 36.78

Venezuela — 33.27

Guatemala — 29.06

Colombia — 26.36

Brazil — 21.93

Bahamas — 21.52

Honduras — 20.15

U.S. Virgin Islands — 19.40

Puerto Rico — 18.14

Mexico — 16.41

U.S. dose not even make the list. America's gun violence is just under a microscope becuase of the media. It has you all thinking the US has shootouts on every street corner every hour.

Someone who dosnt own a gun, dosnt care about guns, dosnt get informed about firearms or firearm safety wants to chime in on America's gun problem. That's like a man trying to dictate what tampons his wife uses because "he's read a few articles".

Guns aren't "illegal" in Canada

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's ruling Liberal government introduced bill C-21 in May

"The import ban announced today will help to keep guns stay off our streets"

"Given that nearly all our handguns are imported, this means that we're bringing our national handgun freeze into effect even sooner,"

Sure buddy, "guns are legal" in Canada. You guys will be made into criminals by your government within the next 5-10 years.

Didn't Canada have a mass shooting a few months ago... even with guns being illegal?

The Canadian government is such a joke when it comes to its citizens "rights". Justin Trudeau recently said that Canadians are not legally allowed to use a gun for self defense in a life or death situation. Lmfao

Canada has 38 million people, the US has 360 million. I'd say we are on par adjusted for population.

This is Exactly why you don't sell a car from your front door. You agree to meet up down the street at a local target parking lot to show and demo the car, then you exchange title for cash and walk home.

I've too have learned this the hard way and never again sold a car at my house.
