Uniques Auto Salon

How it works

A classic from far away, made simple.

Buying a car you haven't stood next to can feel like a leap, so we made every step visible. Here's exactly what happens when you buy from Uniques Auto Salon — from your first call to the end of your 14-day window.

  • 14-day buy-back
  • 30-day mechanical warranty
  • Enclosed, insured delivery
  1. Reach out

    Found a car you like? Call, email, or send a message from its page. A person answers — not a bot — and from the first conversation we'll answer every question you have about the car, the process and the guarantees that protect you.

  2. See everything first

    We don't just say trust us — we show you the car. Every car is inspected and prepped in our own shop before it's listed, photographed in detail, and its flaws are written down.

    Detailed photos
    Every angle, inside and out — flaws included
    Walkaround video
    A video tour of the car, on request
    Vehicle history & records
    The title and the history and records that come with the car
    Inspection notes
    What we checked in our shop, and what we found

    Want a close-up of a specific part? Ask, and we'll shoot it and send it. You end up seeing more than a quick walk around a showroom would show you.

  3. Paperwork

    Before any money changes hands, you receive the paperwork to review:

    Bill of sale
    The price and terms of the sale, in writing
    Vehicle paperwork
    The title and the documents that transfer with the car

    You have it all in writing before you commit to anything.

  4. Secure payment

    When you're ready to move forward, payment is simple and secure. We accept:

    Wire transfer
    Bank to bank
    ACH transfer
    Electronic transfer from your bank account
    Cashier's check
    Return customers only
    Financing
    Available on select cars through our financing partners

    Funds are collected only after you've approved the paperwork. No car leaves our shop until it's marked sold and the sale is complete.

  5. Final inspection and service

    Before it ships, your car gets one more round of inspection and service in our shop. That last round is what lets us stand behind the 14-day buy-back and the 30-day mechanical warranty.

    Mechanical systems
    Engine, transmission, drivetrain and brakes checked
    Cosmetic check
    Paint, body and interior condition verified
    Documentation
    Warranty and guarantee paperwork prepared
  6. Enclosed delivery

    Your car doesn't ride on an open trailer, exposed to weather and road debris. It travels enclosed and insured, anywhere in the lower 48 — Alaska and Hawaii are quoted individually.

    Careful loading
    Loaded and secured for the trip
    Fully insured
    Covered from pickup to delivery
    Driver updates
    We pass the driver's updates along until your car arrives
    Transit time
    Typically 2–5 days regionally, 6–10 days coast to coast, from pickup

    Distances and estimated transit times for your ZIP code are on the Delivery page.

  7. Your own inspection window

    Once your car arrives you have 14 full days to take it to your own mechanic or a shop you trust. Compare their report with what we sent you — everything we promised should match what you see.

  8. Peace-of-mind guarantee

    If something isn't right, you're covered:

    Return it
    Within 14 days of delivery, for a full refund of the purchase price. We arrange the return transport, and the refund goes out within 48 hours of your return request.
    Settle it fairly
    If a small issue slipped past our inspection, we work with you to settle it fairly.
    30-day warranty
    Engine, transmission, drivetrain and brakes, from the day the car is delivered.

    No hidden fees, no arguments — a process built so you can buy with confidence. The full terms are on the Return Guarantee page and in your purchase documents.

Why the order matters

You check first. You pay last.

We don't ask you to trust us before you have anything in hand. Every stage gives you something to check before it asks you for anything.

Before payment

You see all of it

Photos, video, title, history and our inspection notes reach you while the car is still ours. Nothing is described to you that you can't check yourself.

At payment

Money moves last

Funds are collected only after you've approved the paperwork, and the car stays in our shop until the sale is complete.

After delivery

14 days to decide

A 14-day buy-back and a 30-day mechanical warranty mean the decision is still yours after the truck pulls away.
