Default CONSIGNMENT

Ok, so I am trying to sell my car in autotrader and I get a call from a garage in Orlando. They say they will sell my car for me and will get the amount I am asking. They will come to my house, pick up the car, charge me a consignment fee of $370 and within 2 weeks or so they will have sold my car and will pay me the amount I was asking for in the autotrader (thats in the contract you sign when they pick up your car). This is the garage: http://kissimmeecarplex.com/

Is this a good idea if you are having trouble selling your car or is it BS?

How does he make his money? Like any garage, he markes the price up, takes a trade in, and screws the buyer with a high interest rate. Basically the person buying my car is getting screwed but they can't get a loan from the bank to buy the car privately

What do you guys think?

370.00 thats what they probably spend on gas and tolls just to come to pick your car up and go back

Straight off their Website:

We provide good used vehicles at resonable prices. Let us get you financed Bring your vehicle into our car lot and we will take it as a trade in and sell you one of these vehicles from our online inventory.

That says it all!!
