Currently looking at this vehicle listed above. the back bumper has a crack in it and not sure if I should get it or not. They're selling the vehicle for only $2,000.00.

Good deal or should I keep looking?

Thank you in advance! :)

Hi,

If this is the largest issue with the vehicle then it is a good deal. General book value on these vehicles is about $4,000.00. Even if you have to replace the bumper it is still a good deal. Again this is assume there are not mechanical issues.

From the sound of it, it sounds like a good deal. However, anytime this is such a good deal it is one of two reasons. First, they don't know what it is worth or they are just trying to get rid of it. Second there is something else that they know if wrong and their conscience will not let them ask full price. Just ask them why they are asking $2,000.00 and if there is any wiggle room.
