Much more responsive than another auction site. Always got a quick reply to chat. Right place to sell E46 M3 based on prices from other sites. SafePay and no seller charges made for a great experience

Cars & Bids has the auctioning process down to a science. I've never sold a car before, never mind doing it through an auction. I had no idea what I was doing. Cars & Bids basically held my hand throughout the whole experience, giving me plenty of support and encouragement. I was assigned an auction manager (shout out to Michael!) who was knowledgeable, patient, and helpful. The auction went for 7 days. The last hour was exciting, as the bidders got into a little bidding war. Immediately after the auction was over, my auction manager messaged me with next steps on how to complete the sale. Cars & Bids doesn't pay the seller. The winning bidder and the seller have to make their own arrangements for payment and delivery. Cars & Bids advised me on the best way to proceed with the transaction. I love that Cars & Bids continued to reach out over the next few days to see how things were going with contacting the buyer, and to offer any support. My transaction with the buyer went smoothly. I had no issues with receiving payment in the form of a bank draft. I should note that the car I sold was a 2001 Lexus ES300. Because of the age of the car, other used car dealers were only offering $1000-$2500 for it. It sold on Cars & Bids for $9650. It is also worth mentioning that it's free for sellers to list on Cars & Bids. The buyer, though, pays a fee of 5% of the sale price to Cars & Bids, with a minimum of $250 and a max of $7500. I have nothing but good things to say about Cars & Bids. I was too afraid to do a private sale because I didn't know how to safely handle doing test drives with strangers. Cars & Bids was a great way to sell my car without having to interact with strangers in person. If I ever have to sell a car in the future, I definitely would use Cars & Bids again.

I had uploaded over 100 pictures and because I had TWO pictures that did not meet their standard, I was not able to proceed in the listing. This was a 2- week process with them and became such a headache. I had already accepted a lower reserve than I wanted to. I truly feel like the seller does not have control in the listing process. Having a standard is great but not be able to move forward is absurd. I will not be listing any vehicles on this site.
