Why sell with us
LazyChimp's Commitment to Elgin Sellers
LazyChimp helps sellers compare verified dealer interest without the usual private-sale hassle.
Located just 35 miles from downtown Chicago, Elgin is well within the core coverage area that LazyChimp's dealer network actively sources from. That proximity matters — dealers who operate in the Chicago metro market want Elgin inventory because they know the vehicles are typically well-maintained and in demand. LazyChimp harnesses that geographic advantage for sellers by creating a competitive bidding environment that reflects Elgin's actual market position. Sellers get the benefit of Chicago-market demand without having to travel anywhere. The entire process is digital, supported, and free for sellers.
LazyChimp made selling easier and helped me compare dealer interest without the usual hassle.

- When you list your vehicle on LazyChimp.com, we blast out your listing to all the dealerships looking to buy cars similar to yours. Those dealers will then make you offers for your car through our site. If you like an offer, you can accept it and redeem it at that dealership. We think you will find the whole process hassle free and a new innovative way of selling your car.
- As a seller, its FREE to use LazyChimp.com, for dealers there is a $349 fee per successful transaction.
- Once you are registered the actual listing process should take around 15 minutes.
- That is not always the case. Although trying to sell the car to another private party will get you more money, our service helps sell your car to the dealer who is looking for cars just like yours. Some offers will be at or around wholesale price but other will be closer to a price you would sell to another private party for.
- No, a dealer can handle the payoff process for you. If you owe more than your offer amount then you will need to pay the difference to the dealer. If it is less than the offer amount then you will get that difference back from the dealer. Again it's important to use caution when trusting any dealer to handle your loan payoff. LazyChimp.com is not party to any transaction and does not verify any form of payment or funds availability in any transaction.
- Once your listing is approved, dealers have 7 days to make offers, you can, however, accept an offer before the 7 day period has expired. After the initial 7 days, you have 7 days to review all offers and accept the offer which best suits you. Once you accept an offer you have 7 days to redeem it. Think of it as 7/7/7.
- Yes, you can accept any offer at any time. Although we recommend waiting a few days before accepting an offer, you can accept an offer at any time. Sometimes, you can sell your car within hours of listing it on LazyChimp.com.
- Dealers generally will issue you a bank draft, such as a check. A Dealer will NOT pay you in cash. As in any transaction, we recommend you use your judgment and caution when accepting any form of payment. LazyChimp.com is not party to any transaction and does not verify any form of payment or funds availability in any transaction.
