Eric's Expert Take
Eric is our founder and CEO and has nearly 15 years of experience buying and selling used and junk cars in the state of Mississippi. He is also a data nerd with a finger on the pulse of the cash for cars industry and salvage vehicle values.
Hi, I’m Eric Mitz, founder and CEO of The Clunker Junker. After more than 12 years in the cash for cars business, I’ve seen plenty of different vehicles come through our doors — and recently I’ve dug into what we’ve been paying in Mississippi. In the last month, we’ve sent out offers for all kinds of used and junk cars, and right now, average payouts are sitting around $466.
If you’ve got a smaller car, like a Toyota Corolla or a Ford Focus, the average offer comes in a bit lower at about $413. On the other hand, pickup trucks are in high demand — if you own something like a Chevrolet Silverado or Ford F-150, you’re looking at an average offer of $650. SUVs and crossovers, such as the Honda CR-V or Ford Escape, usually land somewhere in the middle, with typical offers around $533. Of course, condition always matters, but these are good ballpark numbers if you’re thinking of selling.
Over the past 30 days, The Clunker Junker has purchased about 3,473 vehicles in Mississippi alone, paying out more than $2 million to local residents. One of the most common cars we’ve seen is the Nissan Altima, which is a midsize sedan. The Nissan Altima is known for some persistent issues such as CVT transmission failures, engine stalls, and electrical glitches. When repair bills start piling up, especially for older models, many owners decide it makes more sense to get cash for their Altima rather than sink more money into constant repairs. That’s where we can help — it’s often quicker, easier, and more profitable to sell than to keep fixing.
Looking at the big picture, car prices in Mississippi have been holding steady, with only a slight dip of about -0.8% in the past month. Compared to a year ago, things haven’t changed much, so it’s a stable time to sell your car. This kind of market stability makes it a smart moment to get a quote — you can feel confident you’re getting a fair and consistent offer. I’ll keep an eye on local trends and let you know if I spot any big changes, but as of now, it’s a great time to take action if you’ve been considering selling your used or junk vehicle.
How to sign your Mississippi car title
We have put together a simple guide and example for how to sign your Mississippi title when you are selling your vehicle. If there are multiple owners listed on the title, they must all sign the title unless the names are separated with "OR".
- On the back of a Mississippi title is a section that says "Assignment of title by registered owner"; this is where you should sign. Do not sign anything where it says reassignment by licensed dealer.
- First sign the back of the title where indicated by "Seller: Signature(s)".
Always sign in pen on the seller line, and never sign in the dealer section. - Print (don't sign) your name on the back of the title, where it reads "Seller: Printed Name(s)".
Always include any and all middle names or initials that are used in the owner section.
How to get a duplicate Mississippi title
The process for getting a duplicate or replacement Mississippi title is fairly simple. If the vehicle was last titled in a state other than Mississippi you must apply for a duplicate title in the previous state. The registered owner should do the following:
- Fill out the Mississippi application for replacement certificate of title or the Fast track version for expedited processing (additional fees apply).
- Or, fill out the Mississippi Application for Vehicle Title form.
- Bring your completed application to your local DPS office.1-5187
- Please note that there is a 10 to 14 day waiting period before a duplicate title can be issued, and the cost is $9.00. To receive your title in 72 hours, there is an additional $39.00 fee for "Fast Track" service.

Frequently asked questions
Can you buy cars without a title in Mississippi?
Yes, we can sometimes buy vehicles without a title. However, our no-title offers are generally much lower, and we cannot guarantee we’ll be able to buy every vehicle. It is up to the discretion of our buyers. At minimum, they will usually require you to prove you own the vehicle by showing a photo ID that matches a non-expired registration and or insurance.
What if my title doesn’t look like the one pictured?
Mississippi often changes their title documents from year to year. If you have questions about your specific title, please contact your Mississippi DPS.
Do I need to turn in my license plates?
Yes, unless you are transferring the plates to a new vehicle. You can return the plates to your local DPS office.
What should I do about my auto insurance?
You will need to notify your auto insurance company that you have sold the vehicle, so they can either cancel your policy if the vehicle was sold, or transfer/renew the policy on your new vehicle.
Is there anything else I need to do?
You may need to notify your local DoR that you have sold the vehicle. You can contact them with any additional questions or concerns about the transfer of your title.
