AAX... Black Book... Are acouple that dealers use but dealers pay monthly fees for accurate information. I wish it was easy as that but as they say it is what it is. KBB and Edmunds are guides but they are not accurate.

Right here on Edmunds! Some pros over the years have been kind enough to provide this information to those who ask on the Real-World Trade-in Values board.

There is no way for you to find that out. Sorry. You can guess, but even if you find out what a dealer purchases the vehicle for, how are you going to find out what the cost was to refurbish the vehicle?

New tires? Oil changes? Dent/paint work?

Sorry, but you can't get that information.

On the west coast they use a subscription service called Manheim. I don't know of any free site that specifically lists line by line transactions for dealer auctions.
