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!

Report showed a car I was considering had a prior salvage title from a major accident, even though carfax listed it as clean. Messaged seller asking about it and they made shady excuses. Def avoided a scam thanks to badvin!

Bad Vin's vehicle history report showed that the 2018 Audi A4 I was about to buy had been in a major accident that was not disclosed by the seller. The severity analysis helped me avoid a bad purchase. Great service!
