Had a great experience selling a car here. Would absolutely do it again and/or buy from here.

This place is a waste of time both for the seller and the buyer. The representative may not care any way. He is getting paid. Sell your car at market place in Facebook why am I paying big money to sell my own property.

buyer beware, my girl was sold a complete lemon through this lot. just do your homework and demand a third party mechanic look over the car because you never know what you are going to get.

The owners here have a good business model for used car sellers and buyers. They're very professional, respectful people, and so was the lady who sold me her car from here. I had a good buying experience, and I would consider selling any of my cars with them in the future. Imagine selling your car without the headache of having to make appointments and meet up for the test drive only for the buyer to determine they weren't interested in it after all. Conversely, imagine finding a car you want to buy but have a limited schedule to test drive or check it out. Well at Buggy Bank, buyers can just come anytime during opening hours for their car(s) of interest. If interested, the seller is contacted and a meeting time is set for purchase. Everyone wins.

these people are shady and dishonest. buyer beware. they are not going to tell you what the hidden history or current mechanical issues are with any of their cars, nor are they going to recommend to their clients that they be open and straightforward with potential buyers. not cool! they also don't allow you to take their vehicles to a mechanic, which is a huge red flag. MAKE SURE you do your homework. run the VIN # on the car you are considering to look for open recalls. more than worth it to invest in an inexpensive carfax report to learn the vehicle history to make sure the mileage hasn't been rolled back, that there haven't been any serious collisions, and to see the ownership history (do you really want a former rental car that's been used and abused)? there are cars on this lot that have SERIOUS issues and they just leave it up to you to discover them. you've been warned.

Jerry at Buggy Bank was a pleasure to work with, zero hard sell, all smiles. Smiles at every step of the process. Carvana offered $7,000, I was thinking more like $10,000, Jerry said "I'd try for $13,000". Jerry handles all the first contacts, and routes copies of insurance cards for those who want to test drive to the seller (me). He also handles questions from buyers, and allows them to test drive the car under careful limitations.12 days later I had a certified check in for $13,000.Great easy process, that takes most of the worry of scam buyers out of the picture. Highly recommended!

If you have a car to sell but do not want to deal with all the risks of selling it privately then Buggy Bank is your solution. The people at Buggy Bank, Jerry and Glen, take all the anxiety out of the equation. They helped me figure out an asking price then did all the work to post my car up on their website. I had inquiries the next day and a full cash offer in two days. The best part is that they supervise the transaction between parties then they do all the paperwork. It was the best experience that I ever had selling a car.

Buggy Bank is such a great service. The dealer offered me $2k for my 2008 Prius, but I sold it at the Buggy Bank in less than a week, for several thousands more. Jerry and staff are straightforward and low BS. They advised me on the asking price, and did the detailing on site. (Had I known they also do smogs, I would have had that done there as well.) The hardest part about selling your car yourself is coordinating all the showings. Buggy Bank handles all of that and makes it painless. As I was leaving the office, another customer told me she had bought 2 cars there and how happy she was. Both buyers and sellers value the service. Thank you, Jerry!

If you do trade in or sell you car to "car max " or "carvana" you are getting half what your used car is worth. We just sold our 3rd car with buggy bank because Jerry knows your car's real value and will advise amount you're likely to sell for and he only charges one flat fee. He guides you through the process so everyone involved is safe and paperwork done correctly. Also you can get you car detailed for extra fee which I always do since all my cars sold were dog mobiles full of embedded fur sand and mud stains. They make it look like new. Also they have a smog service referral to take care of that obligation necessary when selling a vehicle also for a separate fair fee paid directly to smog service. Highly recommended as the best way to sell and buy and I'm so grateful to have this option nearby.

BuggyBank offers a unique and worthwhile service. The private sale of a car can be a real headache, but BuggyBank makes this really painless. Many cars sell quickly using their method and I was pleased that mine sold in less than a month using BuggyBank. I think this is a great alternative to trying to either sell your car completely on your own or getting minimal value as a trade in or as sale to a dealership.

I was recommended to Buggy Bank by many local Berkeley friends ... I had not sold a car myself before , so I was somewhat nervous about the process ! From the start Jerry was very patient and willing to help me make this happen .. I explained to him I was having a problem with my eyes and he graciously read out all the documents etc to me. The car was detailed beautifully and while on the lot was always immaculate. When the right buyer came along , Jerry spent so much time making sure the Smog requirement was met and all the D.M.V paperwork done with seamless efficiency and goodwill ! Thank you Jerry for being my eyes and making it possible to sell my car ! P.S I would definitely recommend getting the "concierge " service .... ( Which includes Advertising and better lot placement )

Highly recommend Buggy Bank! I didn't want to sell through Craigslist because of Covid. Glen and Jerry were very professional, and made it super easy to sell my car, which sold in about a week. They took care of everything. Awesome experience!
