    Probably because they will cut you a check on the spot good for a week and you can take it to the bank that same day. No fuss, easy and clean way to get rid of a car quick without all the BS.

    My brother worked or Carmax for a long time and I've purchased and traded in several cars with them. Typically a good experience.

    just my .02

    It had to be a situation where he needed quick cash. I can only speculate at this point.

    * A Hit on someone
    * Going through a divorce
    * He is stocking up on New Nike apparel
    * A large alpaca farm is in his future.

    Who knows.

    This is what I've heard/read as well. Can't comment on the alpaca farming angle though. :)

    I have sold several cars through them. Really easy. No bs. They look at your car and give you a 14-day quote. You like the price, sign the papers and get a check. It every case, Texas Direct has paid over Carmax AND Manheim.
