ACV Auctions from the selling dealer's side

We wholesale our trade-ins through ACV, so here's the seller-side view members asked for. Their inspector comes to the lot and builds the condition report — paint depth, undercarriage shots, engine audio, OBD codes. That report is the contract: if it's accurate, the sale sticks; if it missed something material, the buying dealer arbitrates against the report. As a buyer of used cars at retail, the practical takeaway is to ask your dealer for the wholesale condition report on their recent auction acquisitions. The good ones share it without flinching.
