Partner dealers

Pre-sold, pre-funded Teslas. Zero inventory risk.

We bring you buyers who have already picked the car, set their max bid, and put money down. You buy it on your account, sell it as seller of record, and never floor, recon, or advertise it.

Zero inventory risk

Car is sold and funded before you bid.

~$1,300 per unit

Your doc fee + $500 handling for paperwork and one auction pickup.

No marketing spend

We run the ads, the site, intake and customer service.

You stay in control

Your license, your account, your bid, your call on every car.

The seven steps

How a deal runs, start to finish.

  1. Buyer submits a request and pays a $99 refundable search deposit into YOUR merchant account via our checkout.

  2. We match it to upcoming auction inventory and shortlist 2–3 candidates from the condition reports.

  3. Buyer signs YOUR Vehicle Procurement Agreement and wires a 20% Bid Authorization Deposit to YOUR account.

  4. Your buyer bids up to the max on your auction account and orders the auction Post-Sale Inspection (14-day) at purchase — cost passed through to the buyer. No fee is owed on a car you don't win.

  5. Buyer pays the balance within 1 business day of the win; you hold the car and title until funds clear.

  6. You pick up or dispatch transport at cost, inspect on arrival, and handle any arbitration in the auction window.

  7. You do the retail paperwork, tax, tag and title, keep your doc fee + $500, and remit the TeslaDeals fee within 3 business days.
