### 1/5 — New pricing ruined app

*2026-01-15*

This app used to be great for checking live sales prices, as I go to auto auctions frequently. However, the new update blocks you from checking anything unless you pay hundreds of dollars. It only allows three clicks on any vehicle in the app, so if you accidentally tap 3 cars you can no longer use anything in the app. Absolutely awful update, never coming back again. Thanks RM Sotheby’s, corrupt company.

### 1/5 — New pricing is pathetic.

*2025-12-05*

The new pricing structure is truly pathetic and unnecessary.

### 1/5 — Blocked key features behind a paywall

*2025-10-02*

Used to be able to see info about cars that sold with ease. Now it’s a $5 a month subscription. If you want money for your niche app, just run banner ads….

### 1/5 — Was good

*2025-08-20*

Was a good app, a bit buggy but ok. Now they’re charging to see functionality. Not worth it. Can look up data easily elsewhere for free.

### 1/5 — New pricing strategy is a failure

*2025-08-18*

Was a regular user of free version. Would pay for service if pricing made any sense. Regular paid tier is useless with such low limits on usage. Dealer price tier is necessary if you ever plan to use the app, but it is wildly too expensive for a car fan who uses this casually.

### 1/5 — Was a mediocre app, now unnecessarily

*2025-08-17*

It’s always been a pain to find the latest results, especially if you’re only looking a specific makes. Developers didn’t really pay attention to minor details like sort order and saving prefs.

Now dropping $5/month in us during Auction Week?? All I have to say is “Hey Google!”

### 1/5 — $300 a year? Seriously?

*2025-08-17, version 3.3.4*

I’ve been using this app for years. I only check in every so often but after this recent update, it’s time to let it go. $300 a year or $29.99 per month is just ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed in New Pricing

*2025-08-09*

$300/year for the same functionality that was free until a couple days ago? I can understand needing to charge people to use this, but unless you get the “Dealer/Analyst” subscription you get an absurdly small number of searches. Even the lower priced subscription has truly stupid limitations on its usage. 

I’m sure everyone is really excited that you guys pulled this new pricing scheme right before Monterey Car Week, which I’m sure is when your app is used the most out of the year. I do wonder how many people will actually pay for this, considering you guys have been covering fewer days of various auctions and now you think you should get paid an obscene amount of money for a service that actually delivers less than the free version provided.

### 5/5 — Essential for Car Week

*2025-08-07*

Absolutely love Hammer Price, no other tool comes close!

### 1/5 — New paid version tiers make no sense

*2025-08-07*

Even if you want to support via the paid version, the extremely limited number of searches allowed is ridiculous.
