FAQ
Will potential bidders want to view my car?
Route 66 Auctions is an online marketplace where we provide detailed information and high-quality photos to help bidders make informed decisions. Because all bids are legally binding, some buyers may prefer to view the vehicle in person before placing a bid.
Viewings can increase the chance of a successful sale and are completely free of charge. We encourage you to be open to this. Our team is happy to assist in arranging a viewing at a suitable time for both parties.
What if buyers have more questions?
Buyers can ask questions directly through your listing. Our team will answer these based on the information provided. If additional details are required or if a viewing is requested, we will contact you directly.
What happens after my vehicle sells?
When your vehicle sells, we’ll notify you via email of the successful sale. The buyer will receive instructions to transfer the funds to our secure account via bank transfer. Our team will coordinate with the buyer to ensure the payment is made promptly and will keep you updated throughout the process. The buyer has 48 hours to make the payment into our secure bank account and another full week to make the rest payment.
Once the payment clears, we’ll share your contact details with the buyer and vice versa. You and the buyer can then arrange the collection of the car, either in person or via a transport company, whichever is most convenient for both parties.
Payment takes place at the moment of the transfer of the car.
The 3% success fee is only charged when your vehicle is successfully sold. It is deducted from the final sale price before the remaining amount is paid to you. This fee helps us cover marketing and transaction costs, support buyers and sellers, and continue developing and improving our auction platform. If your vehicle is not sold, no success fee is charged.
Can I set a reserve price?
Yes, you can set a reserve price for your vehicle. This is the minimum amount you are willing to accept. If the reserve price is not met, the vehicle will not be sold.
What happens if my reserve price is not met?
If the reserve price is not reached, the vehicle will not be automatically sold. In some cases, we may contact you to discuss potential offers or next steps.
Can I choose when my auction goes live?
We aim to schedule your auction as soon as possible. Our team carefully plans listings to ensure optimal visibility. If you have a preferred timing, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
Can I sell a car from outside the Netherlands?
Yes, Route 66 Auctions operates internationally. The buyer is responsible for arranging transport or collection of the vehicle.
How long does an auction last?
Each auction runs for 14 days and includes a fixed end date and countdown timer.
Can I cancel my auction?
Once an auction is live, it cannot be cancelled. If there are exceptional circumstances, please contact our team as soon as possible to discuss the situation.
Who writes the auction listing?
Our in-house team of specialists creates professional and engaging listings. To do this, we ask you to provide as much information as possible about your vehicle.
