Welcome to the Towe Auto Museum Consignment Selling Program
The Internet is a wonderful medium for selling just about anything, particularly antique, classic and collector cars and trucks because it exposes them to the world. There is some one out there that wants your car. Let the TOWE AUTO MUSEUM in Sacramento find that person for a low initial fee of only $250 for a total of 90 days plus a commission of 10% of the selling price if it sells. Read these terms and conditions and submit the Consignment Application for our review. There is no commitment until we discuss the car with you and accept it for sale.
CONSIGNMENT TERMS & CONDITIONS
- The vehicle should be available at the Museum for inspection while being marketed.
- We can have a flatbed truck pick it up and bring it to the Museum in Sacramento.
- The title should be provided with the car, signed but not dated on the front.
- You will be asked to sign a blank DMV Bill of Sale to expedite the sale when sold.
- The Registration should be current or in Non-Operating Status with DMV.
- The vehicle should be delivered in good and safe operating condition, clean inside and out, and ready to be photographed. We take lots of pictures.
- Antiques and classics need not run or be currently registered but should be reasonably complete and in presentable condition.
- Cars, 1976 and newer, must have passed a SMOG Check within the last 60 days.
- The Museum reserves the right to reject any vehicle it deems not ready for sale.
The vehicle will be listed on the Internet/Ebay with an agreed-upon minimum price (reserve) based on Price Guide values and comparable vehicles currently for sale. If the vehicle does not sell with the first listing, and an additional listing is agreed to, an additional $250 fee will be required for a total of 90 days. If the vehicle does not sell it must be promptly removed from the Museum. Failure to do so will result in a storage charge of $10.00 per day from the ending date of the auction. Any unpaid expenses related directly to the vehicle must be paid before it will be released.
The Museum does not guarantee a sale, that depends on the reserve or minimum price.
The Museum agrees to hold the vehicle in trust and not permit its use for any purpose, other than demonstration for sale. While on consignment, the consignor agrees to maintain in force such insurance coverage as he or she deems appropriate for the protection of the vehicle.
The Towe Auto Museum does not insure consigned vehicles.
After the vehicle is sold, the "Net Proceeds" will be paid to the consignor within five (5) working days after the purchaser's funds are available to the Towe Auto Museum. "Net Proceeds" shall mean the selling price less the cost of any expenses incurred by the Museum related directly to the vehicle, and less the agreed 10% sales commission.
In the event the ownership documents are not acceptable to DMV and the buyer is unable to obtain a new title, the consignor agrees to reimburse the buyer for all costs and fees to get a new title or accept return of the vehicle at no cost to the buyer.
