FAQ - Buyers
What is this website all about? How can I benefit from using it?
The main purpose of AutoVertex is to help car buyers and dealers connect with each other. The focus is on group/bulk buying which results in lower prices for buyers and larger orders for dealers.
When you are looking to buy a new car there are most certainly other buyers who want the same model as well. If you buy the same car from the same dealer together, you will get a significant discount which would not be available if you were buying alone. The more buyers there are, the better the price will be.

How can I improve my chances of getting the best deal possible?
The success of group buying is based on the number of buyers and the number of offers. Most offers will have a minimum number of cars that must be ordered for the deal to be valid. Once the minimum is reached, the price may be reduced even further if more buyers are available. Therefore, it is vital to attract as many visitors (potential buyers) to AutoVertex as possible since it will have a direct positive effect for everyone involved. You can help by sharing offers you like via various social networking websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Myspace and others. There is a convenient widget available on offer pages for this purpose. You should also contact your local dealerships and let them know about AutoVertex which will help increase the number of offers available.
What do "current price" and "next price" mean?
An offer can have multiple prices defined, each of them applying only for a certain minimum number of cars ordered, e.g., "5 cars or more - 30,000 EUR per car; 10 cars or more - 29,000 EUR per car". Following this example, if there were 6 cars ordered until now, the current price would be 30,000 EUR per car and the next price would be 29,000 EUR per car.
I can browse dealer offers without having an account. Why should I get one?
Creating an account allows you to have a personal wishlist of cars you are interested in. You will then be able to browse only those offers that match your wishlist as well as receive email notifications whenever new matching offers are available. Your wishlist choices will also help dealers find out which cars buyers are most interested in and motivate them to submit targeted offers. An additional benefit of having an account is that you will be able to view offers within a radius of your location.
There is a great offer I am interested in. How do I place an order?
You will have to contact the dealer directly and let them know about it (this can be easily done from within the page of the offer). We do not handle ordering/payments.
Can I find out which cars other buyers are most interested in?
Yes, there are approximate numbers available. Log into your account and choose "Demand Info" from the main menu.
Is this a paid service?
AutoVertex will always be free for buyers.
