Kako provjeravamo tražene cijene
Posljednja izmjena: 8. septembar 2026.
Every advert with enough comparable cars behind it carries a price badge. This page says where the number under it comes from, what each badge means, and what we do when a price is far outside the range.
Where the range comes from
We group cars that are genuinely comparable — the same model, a close model year, similar mileage — and take three points from what those cars are listed at: the lower quarter, the middle, and the upper quarter. That gives a range rather than a single “correct” price, because there is no such thing: two identical cars can honestly differ by a service history and a set of tyres.
Three things are worth knowing about the number:
- It is built from **asking** prices on this site, not from completed sales. Nobody publishes what cars actually sell for in this market, so anything claiming otherwise is estimating too.
- It needs enough comparable cars to mean anything. Where there are not enough, an advert carries no badge at all rather than a badge built on three examples.
- It is recalculated every night, so a badge is a statement about today and not about the day the advert was written.
What each badge means
| Badge | Where the price sits |
|---|---|
| Great price | At or below the lower quarter of the range. |
| Good price | Between the lower quarter and the middle. |
| Fair price | Between the middle and the upper quarter. |
| Above market | Up to 15% over the upper quarter. |
| Well above market | More than 15% over the upper quarter. |
“Above market” is not an accusation. A car with a full history, low mileage for its year and a recent major service is worth more than the range says, and the badge is the beginning of a question, not the end of one.
When a price is far outside the range
There are two directions and we treat them differently.
**Far above.** Above the upper quarter the seller sees a nudge and nothing else. More than 15% over it, we stop and ask them to write down why before the advert goes live, and a moderator reads what they wrote. There is no ceiling: **we do not refuse an advert for being expensive.** A mechanism to do that exists in the code and is switched off, because a platform telling independent sellers what they may charge is a competition-law question in each market rather than a product decision. If that is ever turned on, this page will say so.
**Far below.** A price far under the lower quarter is the oldest signal there is that something is wrong, and it is what almost every advance-fee fraud looks like from the outside. Those adverts are sent to a person to look at before they go live, and a genuinely cheap car reaches the site a little later than it otherwise would. We think that is the right trade and we would rather say so than pretend the delay is technical.
What the badge is not
It is not a valuation, an appraisal or advice. Nobody from this site has seen the car, and the range is built from what other people are asking. Treat it as one more thing to weigh, alongside the inspection you should be getting anyway.
