Default Rumbleon?

Anyone ever use rumbleon online motorcycle buying service? I have sold cars through True value and USAA buying service and came out way over trade in and book value. Wondered how folks experiences were with rumbleon. They make an offer on your bike and pay you that guaranteed amount within 3 days according to their site. This is the same way car buying services do.

Why don't you try it and let us know what you thought of your offer? Sounds painless, no tire kickers.

Did you sell your bike to them?
I am in the process with selling them my Harley, but I am very skeptic of the whole process. I don't like sending them my signed title without payment or anything.

There is another thread that talks about them. They don't pay you a guaranteed amount in 3 days, You have the 3 days to decide if you want to accept their offer. Sending paperwork back and forth, getting your payoff and check takes longer than that.

I recently got a quote from them. It was about 75% of what I thought it should be. On the other hand, they seem to have great prices on the bikes they sell. I suppose they buy cheap to sell cheap.

It's really hard to find a review of them. I am thinking about selling one of my two bikes and the estimate they gave me was in line with a trade-in value. I let the offer expire and they didn't try to contact me again, which I thought was a little odd. I would just like to hear some first hand experiences from people who have sold to them.

Did they come pick up your bike or did you have to take it somewhere?

Did they charge for pickup/transportation?

Did they adjust their offer when they got the bike?

They came and picked up the bike with a tractor trailer full of bikes.
No charges it is all part of the deal
No adjustment was needed bike was sold as the pictures represented. I got my check before the pick up.
Price was more than the dealer offered me. I had it listed on several sites without any responses. What I got for the bike I am happy with. It sold the day I accepted their offer. I needed to move the bike so I could move on.
