To Search for a vehicle, please choose a category. This will show you all vehicles in that category, e.g. ALL Cars. Any additional selections that you make will act as a filter and will reduce the number of items that you are shown. E.g. if you select the sub category Ford, you will see ONLY Ford Cars. Please note that you ONLY need to click AutoTrader when applying the distance or price filters, not when selecting categories or sub categories.

We at Ready Steady Autos do not believe in confusing you with several fees

To list your item simply click on the “Sell” button on the header navigational bar or the “Sell” link which is at the bottom of every page. The listing process is split up into several main sections, notably:

  • Category selection
  • Item Details
  • Settings
  • Shipping and Payment
  • Preview
  • Finish

The listing process is developed in such a way that you are guided through every step seamlessly. Your choices can be revised at any time, if you want to revise something you have entered on a previous page, you can do so by using the “Previous Step” navigation button.

Category selection

The first part of the process is to choose the category that you are going to list your item in. If you would like to suggest a category for us to incorporate into the site, you may do this here by clicking the appropriate link. You can also suggest a category to us at any time through the suggest a category segment of the “Selling” section in the “Members Area”.

Item Details

On the item details page you first need to choose your listing type. There are 2 types:

  • Full Listing - Standard auction item that bids can be placed on. You can add a reserve price and also include a "Buy Now" price if you want to.


  • Buy Now Item - Create a “Buy Now” only item. No bids will be able to be placed.


This page is also where you enter details about your vehicle. We suggest that you provide as much information as you can in the item title and description areas and complete all the pre-filled fields so that you give potential buyers as much information as possible. Please use the “Known Defects” section to note any dents, scratches or any defects / issues that the vehicle may have.

If you have a voucher code to redeem this can be entered in the “Vouchers Settings” section which is at the end of this page.

Settings

On the Settings page you can set the following:

  • Auction type – You can choose either a standard auction (this is a single quantity auction, i.e. 1 car) or dutch auction (a dutch auction enables you to list a multiple quantity auction).


  • Currency - You can select your preferred auction currency using the drop down menu available (GBP is the only option currently available).


  • Quantity - This field is only active if listing a dutch auction.


  • Auction Starts At - This requires you to enter the minimum bid you are willing to accept, you can also set a reserve price to ensure you do not sell the item for this amount. Please see below for more information on this.


  • Reserve Price - Enabling a reserve price affectively means you will not sell the item for less than the reserve amount set, for example you can set the start price at £50.00 and the reserve price at £500.00 (which means that you will only accept winning bids of £500.00 or more) should a bid be placed for £499.99 the item will close without a winner. We do not charge you extra for adding a reserve to your item.


  • Buy Now – “Buy Now” allows you to set an amount you are willing to sell the item for straight out. For example you can set the start price to £100.00 but offer interested parties the option to buy the item immediately for £1000.00. You can also place a reserve price on your item when using the “Buy Now” option. We do not charge you extra for adding a buy now price to your item. You can also list “Buy Now” only auctions, these auctions remove all bidding options meaning the listing can only be purchased for a set amount. This option is set in the “Listing Type” field on the previous page.


  • Offer Range - You can set a price bracket in which you are willing to consider offers, for example, if you set the price brackets from 500.00 to 600.00 interested parties will be able to offer you an amount within these brackets, you can opt whether to accept or decline these offers at any time via the open auctions table in the “Selling” section of the “Members Area”. We do not charge you extra for adding an offer range to your item.


  • Bid increment – Our default bid increments are as per the table below. If you would prefer to not use these, you may set your own customised bid increments here. We do not charge you extra for adding your own customised bid increments to your item.

  • Set Start / End Time - You can either opt to list your item right away and set a defined number of days for it to be live for or you also have the option to define your own custom start / end time. We do not charge you extra for customising the start or end times.


  • Private Auction - By enabling this option, bidders on this auction will be hidden to site users, and only you (the owner of the auction) will be able to see the usernames of the bidders. Bid amounts will still be visible. We do not charge you extra for private auctions.


  • Image upload - To accompany your item you can either upload images from your local computer or enter the URL of image(s) hosted elsewhere. You may upload up to 10 images for no extra charge.


  • Auto Re-list - For convenience you can opt to have your items automatically re-listed for you. You may do this for a maximum of 99 times. We do not charge you any extra to re-list your item.


Shipping and Payment

On the next step you can set your collection / delivery and payment requirements / options. There is a space to enter any additional collection, delivery and / or payment details that apply to this item. Please always give as much information as possible. You have to select at least one delivery method (“Buyer Must Collect” is one of these). You also have to select at least one payment method, this can be a direct payment through the site if you have set this up (i.e. through PayPal or Google Checkout) or an offline payment (cheque, bankers draft etc...) or you can specify that you are willing to accept both direct and offline payment methods. Please select all the options that buyers can use to pay you.

Preview

Proceeding on, you can then review the listing and make changes if required (please note you can use the previous step buttons to do this now and / or you can also edit your listing once it is live, via the members area) we recommend that you do this now as what you may edit will be limited once bids have started to be placed on the item.

Here you can read through the terms and conditions again. By clicking on the “List Now” or the "Save as Draft" buttons you are confirming that you agree to the terms and conditions. These are the same terms and conditions that you agreed to when registering. You can access the terms and conditions at any time via the terms and conditions link which is at the bottom of every page.

Finish

The final step provides you with the listing confirmation. If you do not pay via account with us then this will be where you will pay for your item (through clicking either PayPal or Google Checkout).
