A professional, transparent, and reliable approach builds buyer confidence and strengthens your reputation as a seller. Route 66 Auctions expects every seller to contribute to a fair and efficient sales process. By following the guidelines below, you can prevent cancellations, receive payments faster, and build a strong seller reputation.
1. Always deliver after a sale
Once your vehicle has been sold, you are required to complete the transfer in accordance with the Seller Terms you agreed to upon submission.
If the vehicle is not delivered, your account may be temporarily or permanently blocked, and you will be invoiced for commission and cancellation fees as outlined in the terms.
Why this matters:
Missed deliveries damage buyer trust and harm the reputation of the Route 66 Auctions platform.
2. Do not withdraw vehicles during a live auction
Once your vehicle has been approved by our experts and published, the submission is binding. You confirmed this when submitting your vehicle.
Withdrawing a vehicle during an active auction disrupts the bidding process and undermines trust in both buyers and the platform. Commission and cancellation fees will also apply.
Why this matters:
Pulling listings damages your credibility as a seller and reduces confidence in the platform.
3. Deliver what you promise
Your vehicle must exactly match the description, specifications, and photos on the auction page.
Even minor discrepancies (such as paint damage, missing documents, or mechanical issues) can lead to disputes.
Why this matters:
Accurate and detailed descriptions create satisfied buyers, fewer complaints, more bidders, and higher selling prices.
4. Use high-quality, honest photos
Professional, clear images increase the credibility of your listing. Photograph your vehicle in good lighting, from all angles — including the interior, engine bay, and chassis number. Also show imperfections or defects — transparency builds bidder trust.
Why this matters:
High-quality photos attract more interest, lead to higher bids, and prevent misunderstandings after the sale.
By following these guidelines, you ensure the best experience for buyers and increase your chances of a smooth, successful, and hassle-free sale through Route 66 Auctions.
