We appraise your vehicle with industry-leading market data and hand you two aggressive, market-based offers — side by side.
Pick the payout that fits
Instant Cash — we take the vehicle, you leave with a check. It's really that easy.
Profit-Sharing — an upfront payment now, then a second check for your share of the profit after we recondition, market, and sell it at full retail value.
Pick your payout
Two ways to sell your car — cash today, or more when it sells
Every appraisal comes with both offers side by side. There's no wrong choice — just whichever fits your timeline and your target number.
Option 1 · Fastest
Instant Cash Offer
A firm, market-based cash offer for your car — good for 7 days. Accept it, hand over the keys at either Missouri location, and leave with a same-day check.
- Firm number online in about 2 minutes
- Same-day payment — check in hand before you leave
- $300 more than any physically reviewed competing offer*
Option 2 · Highest payout
Profit-Sharing
Skip wholesale pricing entirely. We recondition, market, and sell your car at full retail value — you get paid twice and never lift a finger.
- Reserve-price check upfront, at drop-off
- We handle reconditioning, listing, and the sale
- A second check for your share of the profit when it sells
$300
The $300 Best-Offer Guarantee
Have an in-person offer from another dealership? Just take their offer, bring it to us, and we'll pay you $300 more — that's the whole deal. Online quotes with no physical inspection of your car don't qualify. Why not get one more offer?
Same two offers at both Missouri locations — sell your car in Cape Girardeau or Springfield.
Sounds complicated? It's not.
Here's the entire process,
with real numbers.
Say you bring us a 2019 Nissan Rogue. Here's exactly how both paths play out.
Your 2019 Nissan Rogue appraises for
$15,000
We verify the condition in person and determine the current market retail value: $17,000
Your offers — good for 7 days from the appraisal date
Instant Cash
$15,000
Paid in full as soon as we get the vehicle. Done.
Profit-Sharing
$17,000*
A $14,500 reserve check at drop-off, plus your share of the profit when it sells.
Take Instant Cash?
That's your final step — get paid at either Missouri location and hand over the keys.
Pick Profit-Sharing?
Collect your $14,500 reserve check, and we recondition your Rogue and list it at full retail.
A few weeks later, your Rogue sells for
$17,000
You get paid the profit
- Sold price
- $17,000
- Reserve price, already in your pocket
- − $14,500
- Profit
- $2,500
- Reconditioning costs
- − $500
- Success fee**
- − $995
- Your second check
- $1,005
+$505 more than the Instant Cash Offer, in this example — for zero extra effort.
* As soon as we get the vehicle, you'll receive a check for the reserve price. Sell My Car MO will recondition and market your vehicle at full retail value. After the sale closes, you'll receive a second check for your share of the profit.
** Success fee is $995 or 5% of the sale price, whichever is greater. Example figures are illustrative.
