Valuate The Price Of Your Vehicle
The first step to selling is to check your vehicle’s valuation i.e., how much the vehicle is currently worth in the market. You can use online valuation tools to find the amount. You must note that the online valuation price will differ from the actual valuation price, which is done based on the actual working condition of the vehicle.
Setting Up An Advertisement
You must register yourself as a seller or dealer in the online platform you have chosen. After registration, you can access the seller page and create an advertisement. To post an advertisement, you will be requested to enter few basic information regarding your vehicle. Once you are done, post photos of your vehicle and your ad is ready.
Validation Of Details By Online Platform
The validation of the vehicle either happens online or offline.
- In the online method, you will have to upload clear photos of the vehicle (right view, left view, front right view, front left view, odometer reading, back view, back left view, back right view) and a video of the vehicle in running condition. The video must also include the engine in running condition. The online platform will then validate the vehicle using information received and certify the vehicle before advertisement approval.
- In the offline method, third party vendors will be sent to your house to check and certify the vehicle, before the advertisement can be approved. Depending on the online platforms policy, you may have to pay for the third-party vendor validation.
Sell Your Vehicle
Once the advertisement is up and running online, you will be contacted by potential buyers. If you post your advertisement in a trusted online platform like Gaadi Bazaar, you can be assured that all contacting sellers are verified.
