Trade-in, private sale or dealer price: what's the difference?
The trade-in value is what a dealer would likely pay you for the car today. The private-sale range is what to list it at: the low end sells in about 2 weeks, the high end in about 6. The dealer price is what dealers ask when they resell the same car, which includes their reconditioning, warranty and margin.
How does Offro calculate these values?
