Conventional wisdom says that if you sell your car yourself, you'll probably get a lot more money than you would if you trade it in to a dealer. Still, many sellers lose $1,000's by trading in their vehicles. After an hour or more of battling with an aggressive dealer, many people are simply too worn out to resist, so they take what they can get from the dealer, even though they know it's probably a costly mistake. Buying or selling from a car dealer can be very stressful for all but the very experienced. Many people even avoid buying a car at all until they absolutely have to because of bad experiences they've already had with high-pressure dealers. Fact: of the approximately 42 million vehicles sold last year, almost 30 million were sold by private parties!

Maximum Value: sell your vehicle for $1,000's more than a car dealer may offer you -- money you can put towards your new vehicle, use to pay other bills, or spend on a family vacation. Fast Results: at Private Party Cars, 80% of the vehicles sell within two weeks. If for you, "time is money," then selling your car quickly is as important as selling it for the right price. Lots of Exposure: you get the same kind of mass exposure large car dealerships enjoy, but without the high cost. No Sales Commissions: Private Party Cars has low flat fees, and does not charge any sales commissions, which can sometimes be 10% or more of a vehicle's selling price. Safety: vehicles parked "for sale" on public streets are frequently targeted by vandals, ticketed and/or even towed. Also, meeting strangers at your home or office can be dangerous. Potential Buyers Will View Your Vehicle First: only the most interested buyers will call, no more wasting time waiting for buyers who don't even show up. Free Kelley Blue Book Appraisals: helps you price your vehicle to sell as quickly as possible -- and for what it's fully worth. Many vehicle appraisal guides marketed to consumers are unreliable or confusing. Car Wash Services: clean vehicles sell much quicker -- and for more money. Large Selection: Private Party Cars has the largest selection of privately-owned vehicles in northern Nevada. Most people prefer shopping at places with a large selection. "Must be Seen to be Appreciated" Vehicles: these vehicles have a much better chance of selling when on public display, buyers don't get as excited or motivated when reading a small classified ad in a newspaper.   No Salespeople: no one will pressure or harass you, shop in complete comfort, and at your own pace. It's much easier to make a wise decision when you're relaxed and not feeling pressured. Save Money: buying directly from the owner can cost thousands less than buying from dealers who have to charge more to pay for expensive advertising, sales commissions, high overhead, etc. Save Time: Private Party Cars has the largest selection of privately-owned vehicles in northern Nevada. Saves you the time and frustration of searching through often misleading newspaper ads, calling individual owners, and driving all over town just to see a few vehicles. Vehicle Histories: buying directly from the owner allows you to find out much more about a vehicle's history. Many sellers can provide maintenance records and answer specific questions you might have about a vehicle. Dealers frequently do not know, and even mislead people, about the history of their vehicles. Highly Convenient: Vehicles can be viewed in person Monday through Saturday at Private Party Cars, and 24hrs a day, 7-days a week at PrivatePartyCars.com. See vehicles when it's convenient for you, not just when the owner is available. View Vehicles Before Contacting the Owner: saves you the time and frustration of setting up appointments to see vehicles that you don't like as soon as you see them in person.
