      glad to know the check thing has changed. I disagree on the low balling though. Yes, there are plenty of times when the customer thinks their car is mint when it's a jalopy(just browse Ebay for proof) but no company is going to pay anything more than it has to to satisfy a customer. The dealer doing a trade in is the same way which is perfectly acceptable. However, the insurance company should be making their client whole. If the client can sell the car outright for x amount in a private party sale, the insurance company should not be saying trade in value is y and that's all we will give you, especially if y is 70% of x. I consider 70% a low ball.

      BTW my suggestions come straight from consumer advocates, they aren't my own.
