Polen's BuyBid is always looking for ways to assist our Buyer's.

This is our newest program that allows you to search our new car dealers aged inventory that is mostly retail ready and serviced. You must make offers based on the current MMR or Black Book.... then set back and let us go to work for you. Normally we'll get 25% of all Fair Offers bought. Low-ball offers will not be accepted.

Please do not use our system to shop units outside our auction. We track each dealers unit views. Thanks for your cooperation in this matter.

Thanks, Steve Polen
