Why it surfaced

The most-evidenced deal in the pool — “only 1 in your area”. Delivered and before tax, this one is $11,402 cheaper than Columbus's cheapest match.

The catch

It sits on a dealer lot in Georgia, not Columbus. Confirm the dealer's remote-purchase out-the-door price before any hold.

NV tax scales with price, so it widens the gap by ≈$1,069 after tax (to $12,471all-in) — the lower-priced car simply owes less tax, wherever it's bought. Registration, title & plates cost the same either way — excluded from both sides.

The market call

Not every car should ship.

The recommendation is the product. A trustworthy scanner has to be willing to say “buy local” when transport erases the advantage.

Find. Verify. Hold. Ship.THE EXECUTION LAYER · NO BROKERING

A delivery quote is not a checkout button. The flow teaches the buyer to confirm dealer OTD and refundable hold terms before booking transport.

01

Find

Compare local pricing against 54+ listings a day scanned across the lower 48 using matched trim, year, mileage, and title signals.

02

Verify

Confirm VIN, history, dealer out-the-door, and remote-signing steps — and what CarScout could not independently verify.

03

Hold

Only place a refundable hold after written terms are clear. The buyer purchases directly from the seller.

04

Ship

Licensed carrier door-to-door (Montway). $400–$1,200 all-in, 3–7 days. You inspect on delivery. You never fly out.

CarScout provides price intelligence and decision support. It does not sell, broker, finance, inspect, or guarantee the vehicle. Transport is provided by a licensed carrier partner (Montway). Quote and timing can change until booked.
