Can I offer a car from abroad?
-
What is the fee for selling my Collectable via the platform?
You do not pay a penny to The Collectables.
We do recommend you to hire a professional photographer to shoot 150 or more high-quality pictures of your Collectable and or purchase a video from Autoblog.nl with a full review of your own car. Both will support in getting more views, more bidders and consequently higher bids.
For both of these options, we will charge a fair market price.
