If you’re trying to sell your car in Southern California, you need to consider how you can get as much cash as possible for it. Kelley Blue Book has been the poster child for determining the value of cars for a long time, but their faults are beginning to show with the sheer amount of information they have to keep track of. It can be too much for them sometimes and their pricing might not reflect what it actually is.

To learn the reasons why Kelley Blue Book isn’t always accurate, continue reading below.
Their Data is Locked Away
Dealerships might not always be the most accurate when you’re trying to collect used car data. The majority do not use Kelley Blue Book for their trade-in value. Instead, they use National Auto Researcher’s Black Book or the Manheim Market Report. Both pricing lists are not available to the public and usually value the cars at a lower price than KBB so they can pay you less. If Kelley Blue Book is using this data to calculate their prices, then their listed price tag can potentially be lower than the actual value.
Each Car Varies
With all the factors that go into Kelley Blue Book determining the price, people often forget to consider the condition of the car. When trying to sell a car, they’ll often find they aren’t getting anywhere near the value listed on KBB. Dealerships and private-party buyers can claim that due to the condition, it’s only fair to shave off an additional hundred dollars or more. Kelley Blue Book can account for all these various factors, but unless someone physically looks at your car, the listed price might be misrepresented.
Low Balling Isn’t in Our Vocabulary
When we say we always beat Kelley Blue Book, we mean it. We never go below the KBB listed pricing and give you cash the same day. When selling your car, it is not unusual to base your asking price from KBB. Even then, you rarely get paid the asking price because then it falls into a negotiation of how low the buyer can attain your car. Don’t fall into that trap, reach out to us today.
Thousands of Data Points Bogs Them Down
That amount of data circulating through KBB can have some serious lag time for prices to be properly analyzed. The value reflected may not always be up to date yet. Trends and economic conditions can change at the snap of a finger. Kelley Blue Book may have not adjusted their pricing when you happen to check.
