Q: Can I buy inventory from private sellers on Car Spot?

Yes. Private sellers near you can opt their car in to receive offers from local dealers. You see those cars — with the make, model, specification and history already looked up — and make an offer. If the seller accepts, you arrange pickup.

Q: Where do the cars come from?

They are real listings from private sellers in your market who have chosen to receive dealer offers. You only see cars within the distance you and the seller are both happy to travel, so the inventory that comes to you is genuinely local.

Q: What happens when a seller accepts my offer?

You message the seller directly to arrange pickup. There is no auction to clear and no transport from a distant lot — the car comes to you from a local owner, and the small flat fee applies only on completed purchases.

Car Spot isn’t only where you sell — it’s where you source. Private sellers near you opt in to dealer offers, so your next used cars come from local owners, with the full VIN-lookup history in front of you before you make an offer. No auction, no buyer’s premium.

A better way to buy your next cars

Local sellers, no auction

Private owners near you invite dealers to make offers. The car comes from a local seller about to need their next one — no auction house, no transport from a distant lot.

History before you offer

Every car arrives with its VIN lookup and history already done, so you can appraise it properly before you commit to a price.

Only pay when you buy

Sourcing is included in your subscription — no fee to browse or make offers, and no buyer’s premium. A small flat fee applies only when you complete a purchase.

Every deal in one place

Offers you send and the conversations that follow sit in one place, so you can track what you have bid on and arrange pickup without losing the thread.

Appraise

Know the car before you offer

Every car comes with its VIN lookup, specification and history already in place, so you can appraise it properly. Pair it with a Car Spot valuation — with upper and lower guide prices — to pitch an offer that is fair to the seller and leaves you room to sell.
