In plain wordsThis agreement covers listing and selling a vehicle on JDM Rush. It works together with the Terms of Service.
This Seller Agreement applies when you list a vehicle for sale on the JDM Rush Marketplace and supplements the Terms of Service, which remain in effect. By submitting a listing you confirm that you have read and agree to this agreement. If this agreement conflicts with the Terms of Service on a selling-specific matter, this agreement governs.
In plain wordsYou must own the vehicle (or have full authority to sell it), and everything in your listing must be true — VIN, mileage, condition, history, and any problems.
You represent and warrant that (a) you are the registered owner of the listed vehicle or have full legal authority to sell it; (b) the vehicle identification number (VIN), odometer reading, and every material statement in your listing are accurate to the best of your knowledge; (c) you have disclosed all known material defects, damage history, and outstanding issues in the listing's condition and known-issues sections; (d) any liens or security interests on the vehicle are disclosed and will be discharged at or before completion of the sale; and (e) the vehicle can lawfully be sold in Canada. Misrepresentation may result in removal of the listing, cancellation of deals in progress, termination of your account, and liability to the buyer, for which you alone are responsible.
In plain wordsWe review listings for quality and completeness before they go live. That review is about presentation — it is not a vehicle inspection.
Submitted listings enter a quality-control review before publication. We may approve a listing, request changes, or decline it. Our review addresses the presentation, completeness, and plausibility of the listing; it is not an inspection, appraisal, or verification of the vehicle, and it does not transfer any responsibility for the listing's accuracy from you to us. Published listings remain live for the period shown on the Platform (currently 90 days) unless sold, withdrawn, or removed. Material edits to a live listing may require re-review before taking effect.
In plain wordsYou set the numbers — asking price, reserve, auto-accept and auto-reject thresholds — and Rush negotiates within them on your behalf. Deals Rush auto-accepts inside your thresholds are binding on you.
By publishing a listing you authorize Rush, the Platform's automated negotiation assistant, to communicate with prospective buyers on your behalf and to apply the pricing parameters you configure: your asking price, your reserve price, your automatic-rejection threshold, and your automatic-acceptance threshold. You agree that (a) an offer at or above your automatic-acceptance threshold may be accepted automatically without further confirmation from you, and such acceptance is binding on you; (b) offers between your thresholds may be negotiated by Rush or escalated to you for decision; (c) you are responsible for keeping your parameters current, and changes apply only to offers processed after the change; and (d) Rush's conversational messages are generated by artificial intelligence based on your listing content — the accuracy of the underlying listing remains your responsibility. You may respond personally to escalated offers (accept, counter, or decline) through your dashboard, and those responses are binding communications to the buyer.
In plain wordsAn accepted offer generates a bill of sale. You sign electronically; the deal is between you and the buyer.
When an offer on your vehicle is accepted — by you, or automatically under your thresholds — the Platform generates a bill of sale between you and the buyer at the agreed price. You agree to review the contract promptly and, if it accurately reflects the agreed deal, sign it electronically within the period shown on the Platform. Electronic signatures applied through the Platform are binding. Unsigned contracts expire after the period shown on the Platform, releasing both parties and relisting the vehicle. The purchase contract is between you and the buyer; JDM Rush is not a party to it.
In plain wordsYou pay us 3% of the agreed price (minimum $500) once both parties have signed. Identities are revealed after payment. The fee is what funds the platform — buyers pay nothing.
Upon both parties signing the bill of sale, you owe JDM Rush a platform fee equal to 3% of the agreed sale price, subject to a minimum of $500 CAD, payable through the Platform's payment processor (Stripe). The parties' identities and contact details are released to one another once the fee is paid. The fee is earned when the signed contract is formed and, except as required by law or as we determine in our discretion for a deal that genuinely fails through no fault of yours, is non-refundable after identities are released. Completing a deal off-Platform after negotiating it on the Platform in order to avoid the fee is a breach of this agreement, and the fee remains payable.
In plain wordsAfter identities are revealed, you and the buyer complete the sale directly — payment for the car, paperwork, and handover are between you two, following your province's rules.
After identity release, you and the buyer are responsible for completing the transaction directly: arranging payment of the purchase price, executing any additional documents your province requires, transferring registration and plates as applicable, and handing over the vehicle. You are responsible for complying with the laws of your province or territory applicable to private vehicle sales, including any required disclosure documents, safety or inspection certificates where you have agreed to provide them, and lien discharge. The vehicle is sold as-is as described in the listing and the bill of sale, without any warranty from JDM Rush.
In plain wordsAnswer offers honestly, don't game the system, don't dodge the fee, and don't try to identify buyers early.
You agree not to (a) bid on, make offers on, or manipulate negotiations for your own listing directly or through others; (b) list a vehicle simultaneously in a way that foreseeably causes a Platform deal to fail after acceptance; (c) attempt to identify or contact a buyer outside the Platform before identity release; (d) circumvent the platform fee; or (e) use the negotiation system to collect buyer information for purposes unrelated to the sale. We may suspend listings or accounts, cancel negotiations, and recover avoided fees where we reasonably determine this section has been breached.
In plain wordsYou're responsible for your listing and your vehicle. Disputes with the buyer are between you and them.
As between you and JDM Rush, you are solely responsible for the accuracy of your listing, the condition and legality of your vehicle, and the completion of your obligations to the buyer. Any claim a buyer makes arising from the vehicle or your representations is your responsibility, and you agree to indemnify JDM Rush against such claims as set out in the Terms of Service. The limitations of liability in the Terms of Service apply to this agreement.
In plain wordsYou can withdraw an unsold listing anytime; obligations from signed deals survive. Ontario law governs, as in the Terms of Service.
You may withdraw a listing at any time before an offer on it is accepted. Withdrawal does not affect obligations already incurred, including fees owed on signed contracts. This agreement remains in effect for each listing until the listing is withdrawn, expires, or its sale completes, and the sections concerning representations, fees, conduct, liability, and indemnity survive. This agreement is governed by the same law and dispute-resolution terms as the Terms of Service.
