Commission and own stock Sales:

It is required of the seller of each vehicle to ensure they have informed Slip&grip Automotive of any issues with the vehicle being sold to ensure accurate descriptions and to avoid any potential come backs or refunds. If a fault is found by a buyer that was not described by the seller within 30 days of purchase, then this could lead to a return and refund, in this instance the 5% commission based on the final value of the car will still be charged to the seller. Vehicle prices will be agreed prior to advertising.

If a vehicle arrives with us onsite and we think it could do with a few jobs prior to sale, this will be put to the customer before the vehicle is advertised. It is in everyone's interest to makes sure each car is in the best possible condition for the best sale price to be achieved. We have a network of trusted traders we can recommend for jobs to be completed.

Once onsite all vehicles are fully insured by us until they are no longer in our hands. We may ask to take your car to local shows or events to help promote its sale. Cars will not be driven without prior permission. We only carry out test drives with ourselves driving and do not permit potential buyers to test drive cars unless they have paid in full already and can show proof od their own insurance cover.
