Don't accept any offers or sign anything until you are happy. Find all the closest matches you can to your rig; same trim, options, mileage. Look on Kijiji, autotrader, used car places. Print them off and show them to the adjuster. If they refuse to move, get a lawyer.

Are they letting you take things off?

You can also hire an independant appraiser if your own price comparisons don't help drive up the value. They say they base the amount on average current selling price. Bring them proof it could be worth more.

He also gave me worse news, he said that the value of the vehicle, its year and such, I will only get around $5000. I looked on Auto Trader and the lowest 2003 TJ Sport I could find was $6,950 with 116,xxx kms. My TJ had about 86000. Is there any way I can fight that if the price is that low?

Well good news, I will be getting $11000 for the jeep. I'm for sure going to buy back the salvage and we will see what goes from there.

Now I can finally stop worrying about this and focus on more important things.

Thanks for the replies everyone.

That's good to hear. How did you get them to come up from $5000 to $11000?

The guy at the body shop told us that we would get $5000 tops for it. Insurance phoned today and said $11000. I was nervous at first but surprised when they said $11000. So I couldn't complain.

Salvage is $2000, but on monday we will see if we can cut a deal.
