NO TRANSACTION FEES CarTradeGo does not charge any fees to individual consumer/non-dealer users for listing their personally owned vehicles on our online auction platforms or for the receipt of a guaranteed purchase offer. Nor does CarTradeGo charge consumers and non-dealers for any services related to assisting consumer/non-dealers in the purchase of their new vehicle. CarTradeGo provides consumers/non-dealers access to our vast network of registered car dealers who will bid to purchase your new car our provide offers to sell you your next vehicle free of charge. CarTradeGo also offers any dealers to facilitate “courtesy trade-ins” of valid CarTradeGo consumer conditional purchaser offers for a fee of $150.00 per transaction. As detailed in the definition of “Courtesy Trade-ins”, any dealer presented with a valid CarTradeGo consumer generated conditional offer, can accept that vehicle as a valid trade-in and act as intermediary between the consumer and the third-party CarTradeGo registered purchasing dealer; hence, becoming a “Trade-in Facillitator” Courtesy trade-ins occur when a dealer, looking to sell an individual consumer a new or used vehicle, but is not interested in buying the individual’s trade-in vehicle. Our service provides the dealer the option to close the deal without actually having to purchase the vehicle from the individual. The Dealer merely acts as intermediary accepting the “Courtesy trade-in” against their vehicle sale. Dealers accepting the CarTradeGo Courtesy trade-ins are required to register with CarTradeGo, pay the “Trade-in Facilitator” transaction fee and facilitate the transfer of the vehicle with the original CarTradeGo successful vehicle auction bidder/buyer. This service allows for the Dealer to complete consumer sales without having to take a trade. Once registered with CarTradeGo, the dealer will be prompted on the CarTradeGo Courtesy trade-in process. Failure to complete Transactions: Once a seller agrees to “sell” their vehicle and accepts the CarTradeGo guaranteed purchase offer with its underlying purchase agreement terms and conditions, they have entered into an exclusive legally binding contract with the registered CarTradeGo Buyer and not CarTradeGo. CarTradeGo, acts only as an intermediary facilitating Sellers and Buyers online transactions. Once sold, the Seller’s vehicle must be made available to the Buyer for delivery/pick-up to the buyer no more than 7 business days after acceptance of the guaranteed purchase offer. Failure to do so may result in legal recourse from the Buyer. Upon receipt of Seller’s acceptance confirmation to the purchase offer, the registered CarTradeGo Buyer will have entered into an exclusive legally binding contract with the CarTradeGo Seller and not CarTradeGo. CarTradeGo, acts only as an intermediary facilitating Sellers and Buyers online transactions. Accordingly, the Buyer agrees to pay the Seller the contract purchase price in full in certified funds to the seller, subject to the terms and conditions of the purchase offer, and arrange pick up the vehicle from the Seller within 7 business days of the Seller’s offer acceptance date. Failure to do so may result in legal recourse from the Seller. In no way, will CarTradeGo be deemed legally responsible for any contractual non-performance by either the Seller or Buyer. 4.
