metcars 397 Posted June 28, 2018 They are obviously not keen on returning to the old pre internet days when hardly anyone turned up to daytime sales apart from a few salty old traders? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick M.K. 574 Posted June 28, 2018 I could've guessed these results even by the average time it takes me to find a parking spot for one of their sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grant8064 219 Posted June 28, 2018 Last year most stuff I typed into WBAC was quoted online at pretty much bang on book value. So far this year i've noticed that the vast majority of things i've typed in they've been offering 20% - 30% below book money for...and that's just the online valuations. Have to say we're not complaining, nicked some cheap cheap stock from them in the last few months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't really touch WEBAC now on.. mostly full of crap. I don't mean buying their stuff out of auction (no way jose)...I mean the prices they are offering Joe public online seem to have dropped about 20% behind book compared to last year when they were offering book money online. Obviously they feel the brand is strong enough that they can squeeze the prices they're offering. It's been good for us as we've had a few punters come to us for a double check on prices and been able to offer just that little bit more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EPV 631 Posted June 29, 2018 Always check WBAC prices when pricing up a swapper, I'd say 90% of people who want to chop something in know the value (despite lying and saying they don't know what it's worth) as they all check WBAC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a Sportage someone was looking to sell yesterday. Glass £5600, CAP £5730, WBAC £4250. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
