Basically they handle the entire process. They guarantee you a base price, and they then try and sell it for more than that. If they sell it for more, they get 50% of the amount in excess of the base price and you get the rest.
I have always bought and sold all my vehicles via used private party sales...and I don't mind the process. However, I'm trying to unload a Toyota Highlander (in the BARF classifieds and on CL) and it is taking up a lot of garage space in my precious SF garage so I'm getting impatient.
Any barfers work at SHIFT? I did a search and found a single thread from last summer and sent a PM but have not heard back just yet.
Thoughts/comments/experiences?
There is also vroom and beepi that seem to offer the same service. Maybe I'll see which one offers the best pricing structure.

SHIFT.com said:Selling a car on your own is a lot of work. Shift will do the legwork for you and help you get a competitive, private-party price, which is often thousands more than a dealer trade-in.
We evaluate and inspect your car. We can even perform repairs if necessary.
We then wash, photograph, and list your car for sale on our site and other popular listing sites
We take buyers on test drives and answer their questions.
We complete the necessary paperwork to facilitate the sale.
