What are the benefits of consigning my classic car with Cannon Classic Cars? 

By consigning with us, you benefit from free consignment, professional photography and video, and expert marketing to precisely target potential buyers. We handle all details, from pricing using market data and tools like Hemmings and eBay, to final shipping arrangements once your car is sold. 

Are there any fees for consignment?

No, we do not charge any consignment fees. Our profit comes from the amount we earn above your set bottom line, typically between 8-10% of the final sale price.

How should my car be prepared for consignment?

Your car should be clean when brought to us; we will conduct a thorough detailing to showcase it at its best.

What types of cars do you accept for consignment?

We specialize in classic cars older than 1994. However, we also have experience handling special or supercars that are newer models. If you have a unique or high-value vehicle, we can provide the expertise needed to find the right buyer.

How long does consignment typically take?

Vehicles usually stay on consignment for about three months, although this may vary based on the car's value and market demand.

What pricing strategy do you use for consigned vehicles?

We discuss your bottom line and then market the car at a higher price, taking only the excess over your desired amount. This strategy ensures you receive the best possible return while covering our services.

What happens when my car sells?

We manage everything from negotiating the sale to handling the paperwork and shipping, making the process hassle-free for you.

How are test drives managed?

Test drives are only allowed with a deposit from serious buyers, ensuring the safety and security of your vehicle.

Shipping Services for Classic Cars

We offer discounted shipping rates for consignors through our partnerships with local shippers. Whether you're selling your car through us or simply need to transport it, we can assist in arranging shipping at competitive rates.

Importance of Consignor Responsiveness

It is crucial that consignors are responsive when we have a buyer interested. Delays in response can risk losing the sale, so we urge our consignors to be available and timely in their communications.
