FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What is the Cost to Sell my Vehicle at Auction?

It only costs $175 to run your car through the auction (less than the cost of a one week classified ad).  When your car sells, a sales commission is deducted from the sale proceeds of only $175 for sales up to $10,000.  Sales in excess of $10,000 are subject to an additional 2% of the selling price of the amount in excess of $10,000.

Sample Calculation:

#1) Vehicle Sells for $8,500

Seller’s Total Cost: $175 Consignment Fee + $175 Sale Fee = $350 Total Cost

#2) Vehicle Sells for $15,000

Seller’s Total Cost: $175 Consignment Fee + $175 Sale Fee + ($15,000 – $10,000 = $5,000 x 2% = $100) = $450 Total Cost

How Often are Auctions Conducted?

Auctions are conducted every third Tuesday.

How do I Know I am Getting a Fair Price?

With regular attendance of over 250 potential bidders (private buyers and dealers), maximum competition in a competitive environment ensures top selling prices.

Can You Assist me in Determining My Vehicle’s Value?

Our knowledgeable team would be pleased to assist you in determining an accurate value and reserve price for your vehicle.

Can I Determine the Minimum Acceptable Selling Price?

Yes.  You may set a minimum acceptable selling price for your vehicle.  If the high bid price at auction meets or exceeds this amount the vehicle will be sold on the auction block.  If the high bid is close to the desired price the auctioneer may announce “subject to confirmation” which means you will have 24 hours to decide whether or not to accept the high bid.  If the high bid is not close to your desired reserve the vehicle will become a “no-sale” and you will have the option to rerun your auto for an additional $175 or pick up at your convenience by 4 pm the Thursday following the auction.

Who Handles Paperwork Involved in the Transaction?

We will assist you with consignment paperwork and handle all transaction related paperwork as well as the collection and remission of New York State sales tax.

I Need to Drive My Vehicle as Long as Possible.  When is the Drop-off Deadline?

The deadline to drop vehicles is the Tuesday prior to the auction by 3:00 pm.
