Hey all! I’ve been trying to do a private sale with my car but it’s a little tougher than I thought it would be. I’ve got an estimate from Carmax, which was decent, but I was wondering if anyone else had sold to a local dealership and gotten a good amount. Any recommendations are welcome!

You’ll never get a “good amount” from selling to a dealer since they intend to resell it at a higher price later. They need to make room for a profit.
Where as selling it privately, the buyer is more likely to pay higher since they’ll be the end user.
