Absolutely. We have a number of close relationships with shipping companies. We can certainly get a shipping quote and help connect you with them. At the end of the day, we're here to help all the way through the process.
Absolutely. You must ensure that import fees, logistics, transportation, legal fees, and any other items needed to export or import the vehicle are your (buyer) responsibiltiy. We work with a number of shipping/logistic companies that can help you with all of this. Please be in touch at any time during the auction process and we will happily introduce you.
Clasiq chargers the buyers a non-refundable 5% commission on the vehicle's final sale price, with a minimum fee of $500. This fee is taken automatically at the end of the auction from your registered credit card.
To make a bid, click "Place Bid" on a listing and follow the instructions to register your account. After you submit your bid, you will receive notification that the submission was successful. You will also receive a notification if you are outbid.
Clasiq uses a credit card to ensure that bidders are serious buyers. We will only charge your credit card for the commission owed to Clasiq, not the car's purchase price.
If you are the auction winner, Clasiq will send you detailed instructions via the email you registered with when you created your account. The email will provide all necessary contact information from the selling party so that you, the new owner, can arrange for pick up, delivery and payment. If you have additional questions or do not receive the email, please call our customer support line.
When you win an auction, payment for the car goes directly to the Seller of that car. Most of our sellers and buyers use certified wire transfers.
We ensure that accidental bidding doesn't happen by providing a confirmation screen. This screen protect users from unintentional bids or a cat that likes to sleep on your keyboard. All bids on Clasiq are binding. When you place a bid for a vehicle, you are agreeing to purchase the vehicle. So please ensure you have all the information you require to feel confident enough to purchase that vehicle.
CLASIQ encourages the use of an optional protected payment service (Escrow) to ensure that payments are fully protected. This service holds onto the funds and then releases them to the Seller once the Buyer has the title in hand and once the vehicle is picked up from the Seller.
Buyers are responsible for shipping of the vehicle or Buyers can collect their new cars from the location of the selling party. The Seller is not responsible for moving the vehicle to any site other than the one described in their listing. If the Buyer desires another location, this must be agreed upon with the Seller before the conclusion of the auction.

Unfortunately we can't accept every car that comes in for submission. We only put vehicles up for sale what we would happily buy ourselves. After that we'll have an open discussion with the seller about what they're looking for and hopefully agree a reserve price (if it has one) that both ourselves and the seller are happy with.

No, Clasiq does not own the cars for sale on Clasiq.com. Clasiq acts as an intermediary between Buyers and Sellers, linking some of the best classic cars on the market with vintage car collectors and regular buyers from all over the world.
The sellers own the cars on the Clasiq platform. Clasiq ensures that these cars undergo a pre-purchase inspection. At the same time, sellers enjoy a seamless car buying experience. Our community members and Clasiq experts are a wealth of information available to both Buyers and Sellers of vehicles on our platform.

SELLERS
All listings have a reserve price unless it says No Reserve.
All our auctions last 7 days. The exact end time of each auction can vary. That's because if any bids are made in the last two minutes, the auction clock is automatically reset to two minutes as we don't want to favor last second bids and want to give each bidder an equal opportunity to bid on the car they desire.
Click on the 'Sell Your Car' link in the header. Please fill in your basic details on the form at the bottom of the page and a member of the Clasiq concierge team will be in touch with you shortly.
There is a $99 listing fee to get your car on Clasiq. If your vehicle sells then we charge an additional $200. If your vehicle doesn't sell then there are no extra fees.
Clasiq is your partner in selling your car. Once you send Clasiq basic information about your car, expect one of our concierge team to contact you to gain more information about your possible listing. Once accepted, Clasiq will work with you to create a unique auction ad written by our in-house professional classic car copywriter.
Many different factors go into determining the reserve price of a car. Clasiq uses our own carefully crafted industry metrics to come to a value range for your vehicle. With that value range, Clasiq can speak with you on what your particulars are and get into a conversation with the Seller on what they think their particular care is worth. If our number at Clasiq matches the value the Seller expects, it is much easier to continue holding the auction. If the Seller and Clasiq have unrealistic expectations, it will be hard to move on forward with the auction. The Seller also has the option to LOWER the reserve price as the auction is ongoing, but it is not possible to RAISE the reserve price once the auction has started.
Clasiq listings begin on Monday through Friday and end 7 days later. We will work closely with you to ensure the car is listed on the week that you require.
Clasiq crafts the listing in close partnership with you to ensure that it tells the best version of your car's story.
To make the buying and selling process smooth, we require that Clasiq be the exclusive listing platform for the vehicle during the period of the auction. This practice avoids many of the issues faced by similar auction sites, such as buyers bidding on a car that has sold elsewhere. Sellers also benefit from buyers being confident in their bids because they know that the car is available and reliable.
If the car does not hit its reserve price, then the car does not sell. In this case, Clasiq will work with the seller and the highest bidder to broker a deal.
We ask that you please do NOT drive your car as the vehicle is being auctioned, especially after the auction is complete and the car has sold.
During the auction, the users have two ways to interact with the seller. A user can add a comment to each individual listing and the seller can reply directly to that comment. Or the user can click on 'Ask seller a question' link on the auction page and they can ask the seller a specifc question about the car. The seller will be notified in their dashboard of any questions asked and can respond directly on their dashboard page under 'Questions & answers'.
At Clasiq, we encourage someone interested in a vehicle to try and see it before bidding (whenever possible). With classic cars, it truly is the presence and feel of a car that makes it truly special. That being said, sometimes, sellers are not comfortable with sharing their home addresses or private information, especially during these times. In these instances, we suggest showing the car to a potential buyer at a public place like a shopping center or local mall parking lot. Safety is our top priority, so if you are a seller, and are at all uncomfortable showing the car even in a public place, please contact Clasiq customer service, and we will work out an alternative arrangement with the potential bidder.
