Why consignment instead of a private sale, auction or an out-right sale to a dealership?

Consignment doesn’t come against other sale options as a miracle, but more like a middle ground that often suits most sellers better.

• While a private sale comes as the best budget option, it’s also the most time-consuming way for the seller. Furthermore, the final result may still not be maximized due to a lack of exposure, marketing strategy, or the car’s visual presence.

• Auction has a great appeal for its time-limited environment, presenting a very clear timeframe until a serious offer is made, while also building great competition between the participants. For a highly desirable car, this may lead to better-than-expected results. However, that only happens if the car is auctioned at the right time and catches the right buyers’ attention. If it doesn’t, the results can be disappointing, and a permanent online record of a failed auction will trace the car forever and devalue it.

• Dealership can provide best solution for a time-saving priority with an outright sale. Though surely with an offer well below market value, which may be hard to swallow.
As you may have noticed, this is a Remote Consignment, which covers everything a traditional consignment service does except for the need for the car’s physical presence at the service provider. This saves transportation and storage costs, and eliminates any worries about potential damage being done to the car during the dealer’s operations. Keeping your car safely at your own place also makes it much easier and more flexible to switch service providers if the expected results are not matched during the agreed period of time.
