Consigning your car: Behind the scenes

For starters, let’s touch on what it means to consign your car. Consigning your car means letting someone else sell your car for you. Typically, you would pay the consignment company a nominal fee and they handle every aspect of the sale on your behalf. They list the car, sell it and ship it for you. Consigning your car will save you countless hours advertising it and sifting through unqualified buyers. 

Ideally, the amount of money you (the seller) get in the end is greater than or equal to the amount you would’ve received on your own. Typical car consignment fees range from $250 to $1,000 while some companies charge on a percentage basis - usually 5% to 15% of the final sale price. Remember, this fee goes toward the time and effort the consigner puts into making the sale happen that you didn’t have to do yourself. 

Something to note is that not all car consigners are the same. A good consigner will go the extra mile by coordinating viewings, test drives, shipping, and detailing on your behalf. Even though a good consigner will get to know your car thoroughly, it’s still important to be honest about the condition of your vehicle with the consigner upfront.
