Dealer and private seller

Franchise dealers, independents, and private owners consign side by side under the same disclosure standard.

Transparent fixed fees

$8.99 per year membership. $495 buyer fee and $495 seller fee only when a sale closes, shipping by Shipa1 Auto Transport included. No percentage premium.

RapidScore verification

Each vehicle carries a clearly labelled verification status — preliminary until inspection, history, and documents are in.

The run

One vehicle. One fixed 24-hour window.

Once a consignment is approved it opens for exactly 24 hours. If it does not meet reserve, the seller may relist it as a new 24-hour run.

Review

Photos, condition disclosures, title status, and notes are published before bidding opens.

Bid

Buyer and seller are introduced immediately to complete payment, title, and transport.

Questions

Frequently asked

Can I inspect the car before bidding?

Listings include photos, condition notes, VIN, title status, mileage, and optional inspection reports. Physical inspections are arranged directly between buyer and seller.

What happens if the reserve is not met?

If the highest bid is below the seller's reserve when the run ends, the vehicle does not sell. The seller may relist it as a new 24-hour run or accept the high bid at their discretion.

What happens after I win?

Buyer and seller are introduced immediately after the run closes and can coordinate payment, title transfer, and pickup or transport.

What does it cost?

$8.99 per year membership. A $495 buyer fee and a $495 seller fee apply only when a sale closes, and both include vehicle shipping handled by Shipa1 Auto Transport. There is no percentage-based buyer premium.

How does payment work?

Funds are held by RapidRides after the sale closes and released to the seller once the buyer confirms the vehicle has been received.
