What Is My Car Worth?

$500 worth car was towed and need $1000 to get it back, what to do?

  • This is a question for my friend. She is a college student live in Queens, New York City, and She parked her car at street, and come visit some friends here in Boston. The cab driver made a mistake, so she missed the bus back to NYC, and she was late for 3 hours reached home. and at that time, she missed the street cleaning and her car was towed. she is not sure if her car was towed because she didn't quiet remember where she parked, she spend next 3 days looking for her car and didn't find. now she know her car is in the towing place, and it only worth $500. paying for the towing that's $300 a day, so 4 days now that's $1200, is it worth it for her to get her car back. she doens't have that money any way now.but they have her plate and information in the car, if she left their, will they sent her a bill of huge amount of money some day? what can she do?

  • Answer:

    If her car is only worth $500. Then why go pay $1200. to get the car out? I would go to the inpound lot and sign the title over to them. This way she doesnt get hit with the fees. Then she can go buy a better car for the $1200. she would have spent to get her car out of the impound.

she needs to make some sort of payment arrangments or just sign the title over to them if she doesn't want it. NY is bad you should try Philly they are worse...LOL

GO TO PAID DAY LONG THEY GIVE YOU THE MONEY BUT YOU GOT TO PAID THEY BACK

There seems to be something fishy with this scenario. I would understand an initial $300 towing charge, but $300 daily seems to be a bit much, even for NYC. I'm not sure what she should do, but she certainly needs get the vehicle out of there because it would eventually go to collections I would think. A $300/day charge just seems like highway robbery in my opinion.

She should call them and tell them she doesn't have the money and what can she do? Usually they will allow a person to drop off the title and they sell it for what they can get. Will she still get a bill ? --- depends on the place she should ask them- different places different rules.

No way! the towin does not charge $300 per day. its a scam your gf is using on you coz you dont leave here. Dude dont be silly, is she your real gf or you picked her up on your way back to boston...she probably thought you have some money but you wont give her, so she's trying this on you
