The buyer of car is one of those big names that advertise on TV.
Go to the web site of company. Answer a few questions. In less than 5 minutes get an offer. On computer. Make an appointment to visit their local retail store. Within 1 hour at retail store - get a check. The one hour part is that the retail store verifies that the questions answered were in fact true.

The car sold was a 2020 Honda HR-V Touring with less than 10,000 miles.
The car was purchased new for $28,808.
The online offer was $26,000.
Within one hour of appointment. A check for $26,000 was given to seller.
No games. Just some paperwork. And off we go with a check for $26,000.
The car was detailed and washed before sale.

Ah, but what about a replacement car.
A 90+ year old relative of seller decided no more driving. And a nice luxury car AWD had been given to seller. This nice replacement luxury car had less than 7,000 miles. So it was not difficult to choose which car to keep and which car to sell.

Sold the 2020 Honda HR-V within 5 hours total - to get check. From computer to check. 5 hours.

A check for $26,000.
There are horror stories with some of those online car buying companies also. So instead of "buyer beware" it's "seller beware".
