CONSIGNMENT

Why consign your vehicle? For many reasons, it eliminates the headaches associated with the phone calls, emails, inspections, shipping, and paperwork required for private party sales. It’s what we do for a living. In order to achieve maximum value for a car, we encourage the seller to bring or ship everything they want the next owner to have. Specifically, all receipts outlining cosmetic and mechanical work, documents providing information on ownership history, newsletter or magazine articles, spare parts, tools, service books and owner’s manuals. These items are extremely helpful to us and undoubtedly add value in the eyes of the buyer. The seller keeps the original title, but Fantasy Junction will need a photocopy of the title and proof of insurance if applicable. Fantasy Junction has a liability policy to cover the consignor and Fantasy Junction, but does not carry comprehensive coverage on the cars for theft, fire, collision or other damages. The seller should leave their policy in force until the car is fully paid for.

What we do.

1) Detailing: we detail the car inside and out, including undercarriage.
2) Photography: we comprehensively photograph the car (100+ photos), including underside, spare parts, and any extras.
3) Description: we write a thorough description including the specifics of the car’s history and current condition.
4) Website: the car gets a dedicated page on our website to display the photos and description.
5) Email: the same information is sent out to our email list of thousands of recipients.
6) Advertising: this information is also placed in print and online ads in publications such as Hemmings, Classic Driver, Sports Car Market, and many others.
7) Inquiries and Offers: we field any inbound inquiries about the car, show the car to prospective interested parties, facilitate pre-purchase inspections, and negotiate offers.
8) Paperwork: we handle the paperwork to complete the deal, including complex transactions such as part trades and exports. For California sales, we go to the DMV on behalf of the buyer so all they need to do is await the new title and registration if applicable.
