One drag each, once. After this, a Copart page is one click from a filled-in calculator, and a KBB, Carvana or CarMax offer page is one click from landing in your exit price.
Press Ctrl + Shift + B to show it, drag the button up, then press it again to hide it if you prefer.
There is no guess at the repair cost anywhere in it — that is the one thing a search page cannot tell you, so the badge tells you what you have to spend on the repair instead. Non-repairable titles, altered VINs, burns, floods and no-key lots go red whatever the money says.
About the ones with no retail value. Copart genuinely does not publish a figure for some lots — its own record holds nothing for them, so no amount of reading the page will find one. Those are the VALUE IT badges, and the figure they fetch is the same kind of number Copart prints: what an undamaged one retails for, so your rebuilt percentage still does the title discount. A badge rated off a searched figure wears a dashed white ring and says searched retail, so a number off the web never passes for a number off Copart. Each one is a search, so the panel button tells you how many it is about to run; answers are kept for a month and cost nothing the second time. If the search cannot price a car, the badge says so and nothing is invented in its place. Third-party lots — Purple Wave trailers and the like — stay grey: there is no retail value, title or damage code on them to work with.
The lookup has to happen in that separate window because Copart's pages are forbidden from connecting to any other site, this one included.
It reads the page you are already looking at, and follows it as you filter and page. It does not click through to other pages and it does not run on its own.
It reads the page you are already looking at. It does not click through to other pages and it does not run on its own. Sold prices are only included if your own account shows them — Copart keeps those behind a membership tier, and nothing here works around that.
The same button does two jobs, and works out which one you need from what's on the page.
The two tabs talk directly to each other, which is how the VIN gets across without going through anybody's server. So open their site with the Open button in the calculator rather than typing the address yourself — otherwise there's no link between them and it can't fill anything in.
None of those three publishes a way to ask for an offer — it only exists at the end of their own form. A server pretending to be a browser would work for a few weeks and then quietly start returning stale numbers that still look right, which is the worst thing that can happen to a figure you're bidding against. So it reads the page you're already looking at, only when you click it, and shows you what it found before it counts.
If it grabs the wrong number, hit Cancel and use the pencil on the card to type it in.
It reads the page already open in front of you, only when you click it. It sends nothing to anyone — the vehicle details travel in the part of the URL after the #, which browsers never transmit to a server.
It reads what's on screen, so let the page load first. If a field comes through blank, type it in — everything stays editable.
This is already filled in correctly — leave it alone. It is only here for the rare case that you move the calculator somewhere else; changing it rebuilds the button above to point at whatever you type.
