CARJOCKEY.COM CELEBRATES THIRD YEAR OF OPERATION WITH NATIONWIDE CASH OFFERS FOR INDIVIDUAL'S VEHICLES

LOUISVILLE, KY - Mar. 14, 2003 /Send2Press Newswire/ -- CarJockey.com, a leading online vehicle sales service providing guaranteed cash offers to individual sellers in five days, has introduced their vehicle cash offer nationwide. CarJockey.com provides individual sellers a competitive offer on their vehicle without ever leaving the house.

"We have customers that have told us our offers are $2000 more than what they have been offered at their local dealership," said John Moore, Founder of CarJockey.com. "We have dealers and banks that use the system, but this is really a unique opportunity for individuals. We can provide them a liquid market at a competitive price. No longer are individuals options restricted when they decide to sell or trade their vehicle," added Moore.

After the individual provides CarJockey.com with the details of the vehicle through the company's website, CarJockey.com provides the customer an appraisal for the vehicle based on previous transactions. If the customer would consider an offer within this appraisal range, CarJockey.com solicits bids from the dealer network. The seller then has the opportunity to sell to the highest bidder, which can be chosen from as many as 20 dealers.

Mary Gideon of St. Marys, Georgia recently utilized the nationwide service and had this to say, "I was very pleased with CarJockey.com. The response time was fast and I was very impressed with the whole concept of the company. An individual is at a great disadvantage trying to sell their own vehicle. They need professional help from someone who knows the market. They know the market and help find a legitimate buyer at a fair market price. I recommend CarJockey.com highly and will definitely use them again. It has been a pleasure working with CarJockey.com."

Though individuals visiting the site can browse the inventory, CarJockey.com does not market to individual buyers. "We believe the best way to purchase or sell a vehicle is with a dealer, it is just important to ensure you get a fair price. Besides, many customers who utilize the site have already attempted to sell to another individual. Our service provides them an alternative without future liability, increased advertising expenses, and wasted time," said Moore.

Some individuals have sold to dealerships over 500 miles away, but 90% of the sales take place within 60 miles of the individual. "Toyota dealers can usually command a higher price for a Toyota than a Chevrolet dealer, therefore they are able to pay more for these vehicles. We know how to find the dealers willing to pay the most," said Moore.

CarJockey.com is a privately held company based in Owensboro Kentucky. CarJockey.com is the first company to guarantee individuals an offer for their vehicle. The company continues to market its system to dealers and banks as well as retail customers. Visit CarJockey.com's web site at http://www.carjockey.com.
