CA DMV tops their customer service I started using the site as a buyer and made a few bids on csrs that interested me but unfortunately, I was not the winning bidder. As an anthusiast, I buy cars where ever I find them, enjoy them from a couple of months to max one year and sell them to get something else. I "applied" to sell a couple of my cars a month apart similar to what the C&B site sold a few weeks prior. In both cases, my cars were rejected with the same "boiler plate" response I assume everyone gets. I replied to get more information about the criteria given two other similar vehicles recently sold on their site and simply got no responses after that. When a business with such bad reviews completely 'ghosts' responses from potential sellers and does not assist buyers as the reviewers claim, it makes sense to be cautious about listing or buying. My guess is they are doing very well to not care about customer service.

No explanation on why rejecting my car… I tried to post a vehicle and I always get this response, Hey Ricardo, thank you for submitting your i3, we really appreciate it. We are focusing on a specific set of vehicles that we think best fits our community. Your BMW looks great and we appreciate you sending it, but will need to pass for now. Thank you again for your submission and please consider us for another sale in the future! Every time I ask why they stop replying to my msgs so communication stops there. My vehicle is a 2017 BMW i3 clean tile and paid off. But they don’t provide me with a reason why don’t. I tried to post the car 2 times and nothing My car is not special or a specific vehicle. Cars and bids post a range of different cars including BMW i3 so why not my car?

Pushy sales tactics. Declined Application. Like many others posted before, if you do not accept their very low reserve offer, they will reject your application. They are essentially functioning as a dealer and will move your vehicle far below even a trade-in value. What ever gets them the 4.5% commission. They rejected my 2021 Tesla Model 3 after offering a reserver $10,000 below KBB. The issue is not with their analysis team. Their business model is just like many other action sites. It does not benefit the seller at all. It is meant to push hard for lowest possible reserver to ensure most sales. It would be too much work to re-click and re-post the same unsold car with a lower reserve. It can border line be compared with the unethical standards as home brokers. Marketing your service as special or unique is false advertising.

Bad service Man, CarsandBids is such a bad service for selling your car. They demand hundreds of photos, are always complaining, and the reserve price often changes, usually for the worse. For example, CarMax offered $4k above the reserve price offered by CarsandBids. I would not recommend them

Great experience, ignore the negative comments I really have no idea why there are so many negative reviews. It honestly made me nervous after I decided to list with Cars and Bids. The experience was top notch from top to bottom. I got more for my car than I thought I could (listed a car for sale only, did not buy). The communication and requirements were top notch. I could not ask for anything more, they were great and I highly recommend them IF YOU WANT TO DO THE WORK AND SELL YOUR CAR.
