2. Perform Due Diligence

While we’ve tried to make buying a car online as safe and easy as possible, it’s ultimately your responsibility to perform your own due diligence and make sure that the car you’re considering is right for you – prior to placing a bid.

• Review the listing thoroughly, including known flaws, the vehicle history report, the vehicle inspection report (if applicable), recent maintenance, photos, etc.
• Ask the seller – via comments, Seller Q&A, or the Seller “Contact” feature – any questions that you may have about the vehicle.
• Arrange to inspect the vehicle in person, or work with the seller to schedule a detailed pre-purchase inspection (“PPI”) at a reputable shop in their area (at your cost). We also offer PSI @ a discounted price…

3. Financing and Logistics

• To facilitate your purchase if you wish to Finance, we’ve teamed up with Capital One Auto Finance to make financing easy and fast for users with good to excellent credit. You can check out rates and payments - and apply for a loan - directly from each auction! Capital One Auto Finance  financing is not tied to a specific vehicle, and you can get your loan funded - and money deposited into your account - as soon as the same day you apply.**
• As a reminder, if you plan to finance this purchase, work with your lender to get your financing approved ahead of time - and keep in mind that some lenders may require specific vehicle information and may have year and mileage restrictions.

Discuss transportation and storage timelines (if applicable) with the seller, and if you’ll be shipping the vehicle, get a quick and easy shipping quote by contacting All American “We negotiate the best price for your transportation needs”

About Us

Over the last few years, many car enthusiasts have started turning their attention to recent vehicles – cars from the 1980s, 1990s, and beyond. All American Bids  Owners realized there isn’t yet a specific place that’s focused solely on buying and selling these modern enthusiast cars, but there should be – so he and a team created All American Bids, with its simple name modeled after Nick's famous Society Custom Builds.

All American Bids is the best online marketplace to buy and sell modern enthusiast cars – and that means pretty much anything that’s cool from the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, or 2020s. To us, “cool” ranges from the obvious (a Ferrari F355 or a Lamborghini Gallardo) to the esoteric (a pristine Dodge Dakota, Corvette or a Mercury Capri XR2) to the traditional fun cars that enthusiasts love (a Mazda MX-5 Miata or a Porsche 911). Basically everything that’s exciting, fun, interesting, or quirky is welcome here – as long as it comes from the modern era.

Although there are many places to buy and sell a special car, All American Bids offers significant advantages over other websites. Here are just a few of our benefits:

• We’re not only  focused on modern enthusiast cars  from the 1980s to the 2020s. That means anyone interested in the next era of exciting cars will come here first to buy and sell.
• Our fees are low. Sellers list for free, and the buyer's fee is just 4.5%, with a minimum of $275 and a maximum of $4,500 — far below other auction houses and enthusiast car auction websites.
• We believe that every vehicle should come with a vehicle history report – so we provide one, for free, instead of asking sellers to pay for their own.
• Damion & Nick will bring extra eyes – and extra buyers – to your cars, periodically reviewing cars offered on All American Bids. If your car is chosen, you’ll get far more eyes on your vehicle than any other auction platform on earth.
• While other car auctions take weeks or even months to get your car listed and available to buyers, we’ll get your car listed quickly!!!!
• All American Bids makes it easy to submit your car for sale. We value your time by asking for only a few crucial details before letting you know whether or not we’re accepting your vehicle. That means you don’t have to waste your time providing initial information only to have your car rejected.
• All American Bids is the most user-friendly online automotive marketplace, with easy sorting and searching – and simplified auctions that tell you exactly what you need to know about each vehicle.
• We’re always here to help - including after the auction ends. We’ve built a step-by-step checklist to ensure a smooth sale – and we’re just an e-mail away if you have any questions.
