We have so much more power now as consumers when it comes to car pricing. Clark has long talked about using CarMax and Carvana to find your car’s value. But a new study just discovered that they are no longer giving the highest offers! Clark shares the top two sites that are more likely to give you a good price. Also, many products that you see on Amazon are from third-party sellers. If an item is potentially dangerous or even recalled, Amazon has long believed that it’s not responsible.
