"I have worked with Andy on the acquisition of 3 cars; a Toyota Landcruiser, Honda CRV, and a BMW 540i. In every situation, he provided multiple options before we agreed on the vehicles I now own. I have referred at least 5 individuals to Wholesale Automotive as a direct result of the service and support I’ve received on each transaction."

Q: How are you paid?

A: You pay us a flat finder’s fee, regardless of make, model or year you are purchasing. You will be purchasing your car for actual wholesale dealer cost plus the finder's fee.

Q: Are there other costs involved?

A: Yes, but only costs that are related to the actual vehicle purchase. These may include fees for the auction, inspection and delivery. Typically these expenses are less than $400.

Q: Where do you search for cars?

A: We buy from dealer-only auctions, leasing companies, other reputable dealers and private parties.

Q: Can anyone attend an auction and aren’t the only vehicles available for purchase older models or junk cars?

A: While there are auctions which are open to the public on occasion, those we attend are dealer-only auctions. These auctions are the same places larger dealerships aquire their pre-owned vehicles. There are virtually thousands of cars available to us on a daily basis. We see vehicles that range from dealer's demo cars to older classics and everything in between.

Q: How do you inspect potential acquisitions?

A: Any vehicle considered for purchase goes through a comprehensive personal inspection by our auction buyers. As professionals, we are experienced in evaluating the true condition of a vehicle. Our standards are much higher than the average car-buyer because of the value we place on our client relationships. We will inform you of any issues we see on all potential acquisitions.

Q: Do I have to commit to a car before I see it?

A: The simple answer is "yes"; however, because our’s is a non-traditional program, we are your eyes, ears and hands in choosing your car. Before we make a purchase, we will be in constant contact with you, letting you know about the condition of the car, describing any door dings, the condition of the paint, tire tread, interior, engine as well as the options on the car. If you are uncomfortable with this process, then our service may not be suited for you. The cost of personally evaluating a car by purchasing it from a dealer or private seller could cost you $500-$2500 or more.

Q: What if I live in a state other than Ohio?

A: No problem. We have clients all over the U.S., including California, Illinois, Florida and Georgia. We use quality-conscience shipping services to deliver your purchase, right to your door.
