Four simple steps to get your vehicle listed. Fill out the form and we'll take care of the rest.
Getting started is easy. Simply fill out our Sales form. We will review your submission within 2 business days and let you know if your item matches our intake criteria.
We will work with you to determine the best approach to selling your item, the services included, and our pricing options. Once everything is agreed upon, we will arrange for our team to inspect your item.
We will inspect your item to prepare professional photography, a detailed description including all concern points, an estimate, and recommended start and reserve price (if applicable). Within 5 working days, we will send everything to you for review and approval before listing your item.
Once you approve the listing package, we will schedule your item for the most appropriate auction, publish it on our platforms, begin our marketing campaign, handle all buyer inquiries, manage the bidding process, and take care of the paperwork after auction ends.
Normally, it takes two to three weeks, depending on how much required information we can gather from the seller. However, we encourage setting aside an additional two weeks for marketing outreach so that we can find more buyers to compete for your car.
It is not necessary, but you must have the relevant documents proving that you have the right to sell the car.
Most conditions are welcome, you just need to make sure that the car is legally registered, legally acquired, and ready for ownership transfer. Please refer to our vehicle acceptance guideline for more details about what we accept or may not accept.
It is not mandatory to leave your car with us. However, we may arrange to collect the car when necessary for viewing appointments or an event auction day.
You can set a reserve price, which will be the minimum price you would accept for the car. If the auction ends with the highest bid not exceeding your reserve price, the lot will not be sold. However, we can connect you with the highest bidder, which might lead you to conclude the deal.
Generally, it should be somewhere between the lower and upper estimate which reflects the estimated market price. Please keep in mind that reserve prices are recommended to be set as a minimum acceptable price for a high possibility of selling success, rather than your desired price for the car, to let the auction mechanism work as intended.
We will connect with the highest bidder to work out a deal. If this does not succeed, you can also relist the car for our next auction at a lower or no reserve price.
Our online auctions typically run for 7 days for "Coming Soon" and 7 days for "Live Auction" giving buyers ample time to research and place their bids. For special events or premium vehicles, we may extend the auction duration.
We promote your vehicle through multiple channels including our website, social media platforms, email newsletters to our collector database, and targeted advertising. Premium listings may receive additional marketing exposure through specialist media partners.
While not mandatory, a recent service history and good mechanical condition typically result in higher bids. The same applies for cosmetic conditions which could benefit from a good detailing. We can recommend trusted service partners if needed.
Our consignment team is here to help you through the selling process.
