Selling a car online can feel like stepping into the unknown. Between sketchy buyers, confusing websites, and questionable offers, it’s no wonder some people hesitate to go digital. But the truth? Most of the fears people have about online car selling are outdated or just plain wrong.
So let’s bust a few myths and show you why selling your car to Peddle is actually one of the easiest decisions you’ll ever make.
Myth #1: “You’ll get a better price selling it yourself”
Ah yes, the classic “just sell it yourself” advice. In theory, it makes sense. You cut out the middleman and keep more cash. In practice? Not so fast.
Selling a car privately takes time, energy, and the patience of a saint. You have to post ads, answer endless questions (“Is this still available?”), dodge lowballers, and deal with the dreaded test drive with a stranger. Oh, and did we mention you still might not get the price you were hoping for?
With Peddle, you get a real offer up front, based on your car’s actual condition and market value. No back-and-forth, no guesswork, no haggling in a gas station parking lot.
Myth #2: “Online offers are always a scam”
Sure, we’ve all heard a horror story or two. Mysterious buyers asking for gift cards, shady sites with offers that vanish after you upload photos, or someone ghosting you after promising to pick up the car.
But that’s not the case with reputable services like Peddle. We’ve bought over four million cars from people just like you, and we do it with full transparency. When you get an offer from Peddle, it’s good for 7 days. Plus, towing is always free, and payment is handed over at pickup. No sketchy surprises, no fishing scams, just a smooth, legit process.
Myth #3: “You have to be a tech expert to sell online”
If the idea of uploading car photos, filling out forms, or dealing with digital paperwork makes you break into a sweat, we’ve got good news: selling your car online isn’t just for the tech-savvy.
With Peddle, you can get an instant offer in minutes, literally. No fancy apps, no complicated steps. Just enter your car’s info.
