We had to sell our Hyundai Getz 2010 1.6 Litre engine 96K odometer. They quoted 2000 to 3000 in phone but after seeing the car they asked for 500$. It was so embarrassing with the quoted price the car was roadworthy , running in road , recent tyres , battery - less than 4K kilometres on the new tyres. On the top with 8 Month Rego left where i will get half of the quoted money back if I cancel the rego.

The tech guy was showing his car and told that he got it for free and he is doing us a favour by offering 500$ and literally was standing In our door step for us to say Yes for his 500$ offer.

I politely denied the offer and advised him I am not willing to discuss on this anymore.

Had made a deal and signed a contract to say they were to buy my car for $8000. A few days later they called to say that the car wasn’t the model they thought it was and I could either accept $5000-6000 or cancel the deal. In the meantime, I had declined other offers to buy the car as I was honouring the contract I had signed. Very disappointed with them.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!!!

I had contacted them as I was selling my car and I was told they would come to me to get valuation on the car to be later told that I had to drive 2 hours. When I refused they soon made arrangements for me to go to a ultra tune mechanic for valuation. During notations it had been agreed upon that ther was not going to be a car pick up fee and when money was paid they charged me the pick up fee. When I tries to ring they were trying to tell me that I was just a just hungry and on such arrangement was made and...

Where do I start. I obtained a quote from them to purchase the car and sometime later a rep called me and said he could only offer me $7000 less than what I was quote. Their reason was the car had too many k’s for a car that was less than a year and half old with full service history. I arranged with them for there guy to come and inspect the car only to be told that they would only offer $15000 less than originally quoted. At this point a told the guy my thoughts and managed to raise the purchase price. I explained my reasons for selling my ca...

Made a deal with them signed paper. A couple of days later called me to say didn't wont car any more sorry. That was it. I advised the as per contract they must do that in writing and not just by a phone call. Took two weeks to get confirmation in writing. Which meant Lost money by cancelling my Adverts ( as I signed A deal with them ). I also couldn't resell car for a couple of weeks until they sent me confirmation of cancelling contract in writing. They were good at quoting contract which says they can cancel anytime . But forget the part about doing it in writing.

They tell you a price then offer you way less, when cars in perfect condition. I've had two cars go through inspection and both immaculate.

I sold my car to these guys last year. All seemed OK - i wanted to keep my car for a few weeks (dad was sick) and advised them of that from the start. Firstly they =really pressed me, I mean really pressed me to make an immediate decision. I did but wrote on the contract that pick up was in a few weeks. They then deposited the money into my account early and immediately started hassling me to collect the vehicle- phone call after phone call. Rude and pushy. Also be minded they take almost 200 from the figure for fees. They dont tell you this upfront. AVOID

My car did not get an offer. After 1.5 weeks i get a text saying my car does not meet criteria for them to buy. Listed everything that was wrong, so they could do a fair price. All they want is cars that they can flip quickly that they can buy cheap. Will never try and use again.

Their ad says top dollars and their quote was reasonable. However, they call you before they check the car and tell you stuff that's all wrong and try to degrade your vehicle to slash 50%+ off the quote. i had to argue with them to tell them to see the car first but they were adamant to give the lowest price ever. This is a car worth around $10,000 and they were wanting to buy it for $2,000. The car was in great conditions and never had a crash and low kilometres.
Not impressed, and lying about their promises and what is on their ad.

I filled out the details of my vehicle on their website and was given a quote between 6000 and 8200 for my vehicle. I filled out all my details for someone to contact me. I received an email telling me how eager they were to buy my car and to call them back ASAP. I called a number of times and heard nothing. I sent another email asking what was going on. I then received a phone call from a man named [name removed] who offered me between 5000-6000 with ought even seeing the car. Felt tricked into to speaking to anyone and found them very dishonest.

They gave a quote, and once I tried to cancel the sale, they couldn't be bothered answering the phone. They made sure the money went through and the registration was all done prior to me getting through and cancelling. Primarily, because it was a 4x4 dual cab ute, they just wanted it full stop, regardless of any objections. Would love to see these guys chased out of Australia again. If you can avoid dealing with them, avoid it at all costs. Personally, I wouldn't give them any stars at all as they are a total con.

I'll save you the time, don't bother. They provided an instant quote online, how ever when they called, they reduced the number by over $8,000. Even though the quote was based on exactly the same information provided online. I advised them I have a quote from sellmycar.com.au which was $5000 more than their offer. They declined, even when I pointed out they have a best price guarantee. Worst experience, I'll take my chances with someone else that is more willing to help. Unbelievable they have a best price guarantee on their website but refuse ...

Started out fine, I was offered $26,500 for my immaculate 2011 Subaru STi. Booked an inspection and the price dropped on inspection to $24,000 and I negotiated back to $24,500. Got an email that day for a payout letter and I obliged instantly. Weekend goes by, nothing, another week, nothing. Then I rang their number and it rang out for 2 days, so, I called the sales rep, he gave me a number I had already been calling and I rang it. Funnily enough, this time they answered.The lady on the phone was nice enough and seemed to show empathy with my s...

Gave up front information over the phone. They came and viewed the car and said it was in good condition for its age and kms then offered a third less than their phone offer. The phone calls are just a hook and serve no indication of what they will actually pay. The guarantee they provide of paying more than anyone else is also crap.

Wow! What a disappointment. I contacted you to sell my bike. I heard nothing for weeks and then after I sent a follow up enquiry received an email saying that you were based in Melbourne and wouldn't be interested as I live in Sydney! From your website: "Are You Selling operates right across Australia, including (but not limited to) the following locations: Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide and Gold Coast." and that you weren't interested in buying 'imports' anyway. From your website: "We buy all makes and models" THERE ARE NO AUSSIE...

Promise me $16,500 for my territory then tell me the car is unsalable and they cant pay me the amount the guaranteed over the phone as they claim didn't know i had so many K's (mean while I was open and honest about everything) drove 100kms to their office only to be played by a bunch of British backpackers, BUYER/SELLER beware these guys keep the used car salesman stereotype alive and well.

I sold my Lotus Elise after THEY contacted me. The prices they say they will pay vary greatly between when they first contact you to when they finally sign. It's a bit of a con from the start but NOT my main complaint. I signed all their paperwork and transfer documents. You even pay a fee for transfer. They didn't complete their side and as a result Dept Of Transport have suspended my license because this company did not do what they should have and dispite taking a fee for! They tell you you don't need to fill in transfer forms as supplied by DOT as theirs is enough. But if you don't you will get your license suspended, fined etc for them not doing something they should have done and took a fee for. BE VERY CAREFUL.

- Says they're going to offer 7-8k, sees my car is immaculate condition and owner wants it (said so himself) then wastes my time for another 40 mins saying "we'll be right with you" when you're twiddling your thumbs on your phone, making phone calls to your "buddies".

- Highly unprofessional.

- Says one thing and does another.

- Blames the market or other staff for mistakes.

- Bad mouthing another customer to me in the most disrespectful way to a mother and daughter trying to buy a car they knew nothing about and just wanted information.

About 17 days ago i talk to sales manager and owner, it was really urgent so i agreed to sell my car on 24000(car value 30000 plus ), also mentioned need money asap n they said u will get in 24 hrs.

Another 2 days waiting ring them back and they saying now our owner is on holiday so u will need to till monday otherwi...

Quote you really under the value.
Promise you a price 2-3 grand under value.
When you get there take a further 5 grand off.
Time wasters and the owner is rude.

I spoke to are you selling a few times over the past few weeks. One the first call I was told that my car would likely be worth around $14k (its a 4-year-old, Hyundai i40). I said I was hoping for more like $15k. The lady I was speaking to said she would confirm with her manager and get back to me. I then started to receive an annoying number of SMS every few days asking if I was still selling. In the meantime I have had an offer from a private seller for $14k so I thought I would see if I could get a higher price from Are you selling. I called...

i rang about selling my car and spoke with bobby he told me that he would give me $3000 for a 2006 ford fiesta auto. I said no as i wanted to sell it for more like $5000. So today i rang back and said i found a new car that i wanted to buy so i was going to take his $3000 offer then today he told me that my was only worth $1,700 i was shocked its worth way more than that. He told me that in 3 weeks that my car was worth less now than before i said to him in 3 weeks whats changed. HE WAS VERY RUDE TO ME ON THE PHONE WOULD NEVER USE THEM.

They tried to get a 2013 Yaris with some damage for 4000. LOL.

I can tell these people prey on the poor and desperate but since I'm neither I certainly wasn't going to take that price.

There is probably a couple of thousand dollars in damage due to someone driving into the back and dislodging the edges of the bumper but to try and get it for around 8000 less than resale value is horrible unethical.

No skin off my nose, I'll just sell privately.

Don't bother unless your destitute and need to leave the country immediately.

These guys are crooks, they undervalue well maintained cars just so they can make greater margins. The claims they provide on their website are just not true. Their vehicle appraisal is nothing but dodgy.

Stay away.

Say they will buy any car below 180k and after 2002 - a lie, they refused to buy my car, and then back-tracked to say they would offer $400... really? For a perfect condition 2009 Proton Gen 2 GX, 58,500km, FSH. They have a price beat guarantee - don't let that fool you - they wouldn't go near the price I had already been offered, $400 was their max!!

Dodgy company - leave well alone and sell privately if you can!
