Why Has Webuyanycar Taken Off Half The Price I Was Quoted
I'm looking to sell my 17 yo car. When I got a quote from webuyanycar online they quoted £600, but when I took the car to them in person, they said £300. Why the half price knock down?

I don't know, I haven't seen your car nor know anything about it.
This is a typical tactic of that company. They offer you a price that you think is acceptable then 'lure' to their 'office' to complete the transaction. I have never heard of anyone being offered more but often hear of people being offered substantially less. The company relies on you feeling pressured to accept because you need the money as soon as possible and because you have taken the time and trouble to get there.
Did you ask him why he knocked £300 off? Did he mention paintwork, dings, chips, fraying seats etc?
See how much a scrappy will give you

Treacle, it's part of Webuyanycar's way of operating.
They make you an offer. When you get there the agent will be very friendly but be apologetic that the condition means they can't offer that much. What people don't realise is that the agent gets commission on the amount he knocks off it.
A significant number of people take the lower offer.
