Advert
You’ll be pleased to know that selling via a classified advert is free! You manage your own sale, payment and transfer and it won’t cost you a penny.
Auctions and offers
When it comes to selling, we offer multiple auction packages to suit your requirements. From dedicated account management to full walkaround videos, each service is tailored to provide maximum exposure and engagement, turning interest into action, so speak to a member of the team today to discuss your options and prices by emailing [email protected].
If you do make a sale via auction, or by accepting an offer, we charge 6% + VAT or a minimum fee + VAT, whichever is higher. To put that into context for you our minimum fees are:
- Cars - £600/€600 + VAT
- Bikes - £500/€400 + VAT
Escrow is a secure payment system on our auction platform designed to protect both buyers and sellers. It refers to a neutral third party that holds funds before they are transferred from one party in a transaction to another. This third party holds the funds until both buyer and seller have fulfilled their contractual requirements.
In our case, funds generated from an auction sale are held in our secure third-party account that is separate from Car & Classic to guarantee 100% payment protection and are only released once both buyer and seller are happy and the buyer confirms they have received the vehicle.
We hear you Jerry Maguire! Once we’ve received the buyer's funds into our secure escrow account we’ll send you an email to let you know, including clear instructions and a link to “confirm vehicle handover”.
Both the buyer and the seller will be asked to confirm the vehicle handover has taken place and when both parties are happy the funds will be released from our secure account and sent directly to you. Kerching!
Transfers are only made on weekdays and the funds should clear within one business day for GPB bank accounts and three to five business days for EUR accounts. If the vehicle handover takes place on a weekend, the payment will be set up but won’t clear until the next business day.
