COLLECTOR, CLASSIC, EXOTIC AND LUXURY CAR CONSIGNMENT
As the largest pre-owned luxury & specialty vehicle broker in the Northwest, Elliott Bay Auto Brokers is first and foremost an organization of auto enthusiasts. Our informational approach, passionate staff, and exceptional standards give both sellers and buyers confidence that a vehicle from EBA is the best in the marketplace. This reputation is why sellers choose to consign their vehicle with us.
Trade-in offers from other dealership are always lower than expected and in some cases lower than financially acceptable. In these situations, consigning your vehicle rather than trading it in can be the best option. You get an honest value for your car while eliminating the time and hassle of selling it yourself. Your vehicle also might be too unique to sell privately in the local area. Many classic and exotic car owners choose to consign their vehicles to reach the right buyers.
We are unique by offering Vehicle Consignments on a flat-fee basis, set up-front, based on the price of the vehicle. We know the marketplace, and we have the customer base to get it sold.
