How much are the buyer fees?
THERE ARE NO BUYER FEES FOR THE JEEP OR PART CLASSIFIED ADS. There is a 3% buyer fee for the winning auction bidder of the 7 day live auctions. This is a great savings as most auctions charge 5% or more for buyer fees. It is 3% of the total winning bid, which will be charged to the credit card we have on file. For example, if the winning bid is $10,000 the buyer fee would be $300. You must register to be able to bid on the 7 day live auctions.
How do the auctions work?
You can choose from a "reserve" auction, you set the "reserve", the minimum price you would sell your Jeep for. Keep in mind to make the "reserve" price reasonable, as there is a better chance of selling your Jeep. The "reserve" price will be unknown to the bidders. Or you can choose a "NO reserve" auction, which means there is NO minimum price, the highest bid wins the car. You CANNOT have your Jeep listed up for auction on another live auction website while your Jeep is up for auction and live on JeeperExchange.com
How does the bidding work?
You must register to be able to bid on the 7 day live auctions. You then bid whatever amount you wish to pay for the Jeep. Once the auction comes close to ending and a bid is placed, the auction will be reset 2 minutes after each bid until the bidding stops. If the final bid is over the "reserve price" you have won the Jeep. If it is a "NO reserve" auction the final bid wins the Jeep.
What happens after I win the auction?
If you are the winning bidder, JeeperExchange.com will provide you with the seller's contact information. You and the seller will work out the details of payment and pick up for the Jeep. Completion of the transaction is between the buyer and the seller. You pay the seller directly for the Jeep, not through this website. We recommend wire transfers or cashier's checks or other traceable means.
What happens if the reserve isn't met?
If the highest bid fails to meet the "reserve". JeeperExchange.com will contact the seller and highest bidder and try to work out a deal. If a deal is NOT made. The seller may relist their Jeep on our classified ads for FREE.
What if the winning bidder doesn't buy the car?
It's very uncommon the winning bidder doesn't follow through with the purchase, but if this does occur, the buyer will forfeit their 3% buyer fee and be permanently banned from JeeperExchange.com. JeeperExchange.com assumes NO liability for non payment of auctioned Jeeps.
We will then work with the next highest bidder to try and work out a deal for the Jeep. If no deal can be worked out we will relist your Jeep for free.
Is there proxy bidding?
No, whatever you bid is the amount that is shown. For example, If the current high bid is $10,000 and you bid $12,000, the current high bid will immediately go to $12,000.
Can I lower my reserve once the auction has started?
Yes, just contact us and we will lower it to whatever price you decide on.
