Testimonials from our customers
As a used car dealer, I rely on badvin.org for checking every vehicle I'm considering purchasing at auction. The comprehensive reports give me peace of mind and help me avoid problem cars. Photos of past sales have saved me from overpaying many times. Worth every penny!
I import used luxury cars from US auctions to resell in Russia. The vehicle history reports from badVIN are essential for avoiding problem cars. For a BMW I was bidding on, it uncovered a salvage title from flood damage that other reports missed! That alone pays for the service.
I was curious what my grandfather's 1995 mercedes s500 cost when new but couldn't find the MSRP anywhere online. badvin had the original window sticker tho! crazy it was nearly $100k back then, worth a small fortune now.
Being able to pull up original window sticker was cool to see what a car cost new. Helped a bit with negotiating price on a used lexus. But was kind of expensive just for that. Still glad I tried it but not sure Id pay for again.
