Consign Your Car
 
       
  . . . WE SET UP A CONSIGNMENT AGREEMENT . . .  
       
  We will provide you with a description of our Consignment Program, detailing the program advantages, your responsibilities and our fees.  We will also fill out a Consignment Agreement detailing the program.  Please contact us for more information.  
       
  . . . WE ADVERTISE YOUR VEHICLE SEVERAL WAYS . . .  
       
  All vehicles are displayed on our lot, which is located in an upscale, low-crime, light industrial area very near old downtown Plano that is heavily patrolled by police.  When the office is closed, the vehicles are safely parked in a well-lit, secure, fenced area.  We will also advertise your vehicle on our website, which receives good exposure due to eBay sales activity.  Your vehicle will be listed in Auto Trader or Truck Trader, with a corresponding online listing at traderonline.com.  When it is appropriate, we also run ads in the Dallas Morning News, with a corresponding listing on cars.com.  On occasion, we may list vehicles on eBay motors. You may see us there as texascarshopper, where we are proud of our 100% positive feedback score.  We also do a lot of "word-of-mouth" advertising and have several associations with other respectable dealers.

Collector cars are sold through our website, the Custom, Antique and Sportscar Trader, Hemmings Motor News, eBay, and through marque-specific clubs and publications.
 
       
  . . . WE SELL YOUR VEHICLE AND HANDLE ALL PAPERWORK . . .  
       
  We will negotiate the sale of your vehicle and handle all of the paperwork for you!  We will even complete the title transfer to save you time.  
       
  . . . YOU RECEIVE A CHECK! . . .  
       
  When the sale and transfer are complete, we will deduct our fee and any outstanding expenses and mail a check to you!  
 
 
 

ADVANTAGES TO THE CLIENT
 

 
 
  • Storage and display of your vehicle.  Periodic cleaning of the exterior and interior is also provided.
  • Local, regional and national advertising with a display ad on traderonline.com.
  • Fielding inquiries from prospective buyers, and arranging test drives.
  • Negotiating and completing the sale of your vehicle, with all necessary paperwork.
 
   
 

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
 

 
  • Delivery of the car to us with at least 1/4 tank of gas, and a recent or fresh professional detail of the exterior and interior.  If in our opinion detailing is needed, we can arrange to have it done at our facility or a nearby detail shop at a cost of $150 (for sedans in reasonably good condition).  We will collect this charge at the time of dropoff if we determine that detailing is required.
  • Recent (within 2,000 miles) oil and filter change.  If an oil change is overdue, or no written evidence is available, we can arrange to have it done.  The charge for the oil change will be collected at the time of dropoff.
  • Current state safety and emission inspection, good for at least the duration of the consignment period.  Again, state inspection and repairs (if necessary) can be handled by us at the client's expense.  Cost of any repairs, replacement of parts or state inspections will be billed, and are due and payable upon completion of the work; we will not deduct them from any later sales proceeds.
  • Maintenance of full liability and/or comprehensive insurance coverage of the vehicle until it is either sold or removed from consignment.
 

OUR FEES
 

 
  • We collect a non-refundable $100 marketing fee for our consignment service upon dropoff.  We will also collect estimated detailing and inspection costs, if applicable.  Upon sale of the vehicle, we will collect our fee of 5% of the sales price, with a minimum of $500 and a maximum of $1000.  Of course, any outstanding repair, detailing, extra advertising or inspection invoices will be deducted prior to final payment.
