Bike evaluations

rsatd · 9 Jul 2012 at 15:55

Hi guys,

I went to get a valuation on webuyanybike and the valuation came back much higher then anticipated as they don't want to buy it as I can sell it privately for much more.

How realistic are their valuations? It came back as around 1400 compared to what I am trying to sell the bike atm at 800.

Having never dealt with said company i couldn't say how accurate there evaluations are, it could be a case of them offering more than it's worth online just to get your custom, then revising there offer downwards once they've seen it in person.

If your not sure what it's worth, just check MCN, Autotrader, Ebay etc to get a rough ball park figure.

Personally I think 800-1000 is reasonable but they are hitting the ball pretty high with that one... Doubt anyone would actually give it that much (not that id mind), but was just wondering really. They didn't want to buy it themselves though ¬_¬.

Why would they give a high valuation if they didn't want to buy, surely it would be the opposite?
