Websites That Sell Used Cars

9:11 AM No comments

You can buy nearly anything on the internet, including used cars. Used car Internet sites function in a manner similar to the newspaper classified sections of yesterday, though now you can often find the exact vehicle for which you are searching. You can often find research tools and financing options online when buying your used car from a website.

AutoTrader offers used cars from private sellers and businesses alike in a search engine format. You can search by make and model on the website, as well as by your zip code. You can create an account on the website in order to save your browsing history. This feature is beneficial for finding used car listings again after you have left the page. When you buy a used car from AutoTrader, the company provides numerous resources for financing and insuring the vehicle.

CarMax offers a used car website in addition to its physical locations throughout the United States. CarMax, unlike other websites that sell used cars, inspects its vehicles for problems before offering the vehicles for sale. CarMax provides customers with a vehicle history report and, as of 2010, a five-day money-back guarantee. CarMax provides financing for your used vehicle purchase if you qualify.

CarsDirect offers a used car database comprised of private and corporate sellers. In addition to its used car search engine, CarsDirect provides research information and reviews on prospective used vehicles. After you purchase your vehicle, CarsDirect can provide financing resources for you.

For used cars in an auction format, eBay provides a search engine for a variety of vehicles. Listings are provided by private and corporate sellers, and vary in auction length. You must be the winning bidder on an auction in order to win the vehicle. After winning the vehicle, you must pay via a secured payment method online, as well as in person for the remaining balance. The company provides a rating system for sellers to ensure that you are buying from a quality seller.
