Who is this for?
CLASSIC.COM PRO is for specialty car owners who wish to have their car sold by a professional and leverage the extensive reach of CLASSIC.COM. We only accept specialty cars - classic or modern cars with unique characteristics. The car must be in the US and in road-worthy condition. You must also:
- 1. Have proof of Title to the car - if it's financed, we will need pay-off info with the lender.
- 2. Need to execute our Vehicle Marketing Services Agreement
- 3. Be willing to abide by our Transparent Marketing philosophy.
How much does it cost?
Once accepted to the program, we charge a nominal fee of $399 to cover professional photography, third party inspection, and distribution across our network. Once the car is sold, we receive a 7.5% marketing fee of the final sale price. The marketing fee is our incentive to sell your car as effectively as possible.
Can I just post an ad for my car on CLASSIC.COM?
No, we do not sell classified ads. Listings on our website are provided by third-party dealers, auctions, or clients who are using the CLASSIC.COM PRO service.
What is Transparent Marketing?
We are obsessed with transparency. In fact, we fundamentally believe that the market for specialty cars is growing because it is now more transparent. Our approach to marketing your car will follow that philosophy: present it exactly like it is, no superlatives, and let the car sell itself. More buyers will come.
Who will sell my car?
We will match you to one of our CLASSIC.COM Pros who is an expert in selling specialty cars like yours. That Pro will lead our team in preparing a valuation analysis and coordinating the inspection, photography, video, and listing write-up. Once that is complete, we'll create and execute a targeted marketing plan for your car using the most effective channels.
Where will my car be sold?
Every car is different. Depending on the specifics, our team will choose the best channel(s) to sell your car. It could be directly to a retail buyer that is browsing our website, a dealer in our network, or through one of the online or offline auctions featured on our website.
Can you help me sell through an online auction?
Yes. We can help you find the right online auction partner for your car, and make sure it's done the right way. Selling through online auctions requires preparation: professional photography, videos, digging up service records, and being prepared to answer tough questions. We take care of that.
Should I just go directly to a dealer or auction?
If you have the time and expertise, go for it! Our service is for individuals who want to sell their car through a professional. This offers many benefits, including selling your car for the best price, freeing up your time, and providing anonymity during the sale process.
I am a dealer or auction, how can I be included in this program?
YES! Dealers and auctions can definitely leverage our robust marketing capabilities for select listings in their inventory.
