Do car haulers like Carmax?

Im not all that familiar with Carmax but $199 is pretty low. Not worth a carriers time to mess with it. If it was me and I was in Jackson, TN headed to Chattanooga I still probably wouldnt pick it up. Just not worth it. Im sure the transfer fee is the problem. Probably need to throw another $100-$200 at the transportation cost. Good luck.

 

I've had 2 cars transported. I paid $1000 each time. One was East to West and the other was North to South. What the heck is $199? That's insulting. It would cost more than that to pay someone to drive it.

 

Ask for your $199 dollars back then have them pay you an additional $199 to go to Jackson to "transport" it yourself. That's what I would do.

i went to that carmax in Chatt a couple years ago when I was looking for a car. I wasn't impressed. The salesmen seemed pushy and desperate to make a sale. I took my business elsewhere and they kept calling me for 6 months asking if I was ready to buy yet, even after I informed them that I had already purchased a car.

 

They have their own in house transport trucks. Met the guy that ran one of them in OH. Said he stayed mainly within a days drive of the Dayton, OH. So they must not have any other transfers to go along with yours either.

 

Doubt it. No one is going to undercut themselves. I'd be surprised if that even covered the hauler's insurance.

 

Most dealerships would have 2 guys drive over to Jackson and pick it up and bring it back to Chattanooga. Having a car hauled is a first-class method of transport. If Carmax can't afford it, then they need to find another way to get the job done, or tell the customer to go get it themselves.

 

Let me understand. 3 weeks ago you bought a vehicle? Did you give them money? #1- I would not have given them money for a vehicle that I am not driving out with. A deposit maybe, but that's it. #2-They must not be concerned about you getting your vehicle if 3 weeks have passed and it is still not here. Somebody is blowing smoke up somebody's Hiney. They made YOU pay to move the vehicle?

 

I didnt buy anything.
