Here are the answers to the most common questions people ask...
Galves' history dates back to the 1920s, and the company claims to be “perhaps the oldest automotive wholesale company in the United States.” By the 1950s, the company was selling hundreds of used vehicles every month, and “recognized the need for a truly accurate and reliable price guide to help dealers function effectively in the rapidly expanding marketplace.” The first Galves book was published in 1957—and the rest is history!
Since the company has a storied history as a leading used car dealer itself, dealers trust Galves to provide accurate valuations. Over the years, Galves has continued to expand its data. Contact the expert team at Laser Appraiser for more info.
Galves publishes two types of values for each vehicle: “Trade-in Value” and “Market Ready Value”. The Trade-in Value is for vehicles that need some work to get them market-ready, while Market Ready Value is for cars in excellent condition or have been reconditioned to be “market ready”.
