Detailed Blue Book Value Used Car Pricing, Compare Pricing Today!

By: Mark Fleagle

Have you ever noticed that some brand names will stick with a product and that is what they become called generally? Items like Kleenex and Band Aids are referred to by these names rather than tissue or bandage. This is because these where the first brands to come out with the product and to people referred to the product by the brand name.

You can apply the same theory as we discussed in the above paragraph. My son and his friend have been involved in purchasing old used cars and fixing them up for about 5 years, and they typically just work on them after work and on the weekends. They each have kept a classic car that they have restored and are now working on one that they hope to sell for a profit. My son and his friend were talking about what they thought their profit would get out of their recently completed car and said they would check the blue book value against what similar cars were selling for at the car auctions, and then determine their sell price.

I have heard them talk about the blue book value of a car in the past, but I have never paid that much attention to where they were looking. My wife asked me if I could grab the blue book off of the desk I have in my office and I went to my library thinking my son may be keeping it there.There were some papers on the desk, but it was generally clean. I could not see a blue book anywhere. My wife decided to find out what was taking me so long. She walked right up and took a tan looking book out of my library case. I started laughing and said that I was feeling quite foolish. I was looking for a book that was the color blue. I did not look at the title of the tan book.

When the price of used cars were first published in an effort to establish uniformity in cost one company published the pricing they were published in a blue colored book and were referred to as the blue book value. Soon after other pricing publications came out from other sources but they were not as detailed, unbiased and accurate as blue book value so this is the measured that anyone who wants to get a value of their vehicle before they do any selling.

Nowadays there are multiple publications for car pricing that are very accurate but they are all referred to as a blue book value for a used car. The details included inside the blue book are determined by the number miles, the manufactured year, any special options, and what kind of condition the vehicle is in. You can still dicker some pricing because there is some margin but the how a car is valued is pretty much set in stone.
