Buyer Agreement
Effective Date: April 20, 2026 | Last Updated: April 20, 2026
1. Platform Access & Services
EXR provides Buyer with access to the Exclusive Racing Marketplace at www.ExclusiveRacing.com (the “Platform”) to search, browse, and engage with listings — including placing bids, making offers, and using the Buy Now feature on assets listed for sale (each a “Listing”).
In the event that Buyer places the winning bid, has an offer accepted, or uses the Buy Now feature on any Listing, EXR is authorized to provide Buyer’s contact information to the Seller and Seller’s contact information to the Buyer in order to facilitate completion of the transaction. This exchange of contact information occurs only upon a Winning Event and only after the applicable Sales Premium has been collected.
The How It Works pages of the EXR website at https://ExclusiveRacing.com/ are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement.
All bids, offers, fees, and purchase amounts are in United States Dollars (USD).
2. Listing Tiers & How Purchases Work
Every EXR Listing is presented under one of two tiers. The applicable tier determines how the sale works and what obligations apply upon a Winning Event.
2.1 Platinum — Hybrid Auctions Platinum listings utilize EXR’s signature cycling format of 7-day Live Auction periods and 7-day Buy Now/Make Offer periods, repeating continuously until the Listing is sold. During live auction periods, competitive bidding is the only active purchase method — Buy Now and Make Offer are inactive. Buy Now and Make Offer become active during the Live Preview period and during Buy Now/Make Offer periods between auction cycles.
- Reserve Auction: Buyer’s bid or offer must meet or exceed the Seller’s confidential Reserve Price to win the Listing. If Buyer’s bid is the highest bid at auction close and meets or exceeds the Reserve Price, Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Listing and is obligated to complete the transaction.
- No-Reserve Auction: The Listing sells to the highest bidder regardless of price. If Buyer’s bid is the highest bid at auction close, Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Listing and is obligated to complete the transaction.
- Buy Now: If Buyer pays the Buy Now price, Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Listing immediately and is obligated to complete the transaction.
- Make Offer: If Seller accepts Buyer’s offer, Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Listing and is obligated to complete the transaction.
2.2 Gold — Direct Sale Gold listings utilize a continuous Buy Now/Make Offer direct sale format with no auction periods. Buy Now and Make Offer are active continuously throughout the listing period.
- Buy Now: If Buyer pays the Buy Now price, Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Listing immediately and is obligated to complete the transaction.
- Make Offer: If Seller accepts Buyer’s offer, Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Listing and is obligated to complete the transaction.
2.3 Run-Till-Sold Listing Structure; Archived Listings
Buyer acknowledges the following regarding the lifecycle of Platinum and Gold listings on the EXR platform. These provisions apply identically to both tiers; the only difference between Platinum and Gold is sales format.
(a) 365-Day Renewable Listing Periods Platinum and Gold listings run for 365-day renewable Listing Periods under EXR’s “Run-Till-Sold” model, as described more fully in Section 4.8 of the Terms of Service. Buyer acknowledges that EXR makes no representation or warranty that any specific listing will remain active, unsold, or unchanged in price for any particular period of time. A seller may sell to another buyer, cancel the listing in accordance with Section 4.5 of the Terms of Service, or permit the listing to move to archive at any time, subject to EXR’s rules.
(b) Archived Listings Are Not Actionable A listing that has been moved to EXR’s inactive archive under Section 4.8(d) of the Terms of Service is not open for bidding, Buy Now purchase, or Make Offer submission until it has been reactivated by the Seller under Section 4.8(e). Buyer agrees not to attempt to transact on, or circumvent the platform to contact the Seller of, an archived listing. A Buyer interested in an archived listing may contact EXR at [email protected], and EXR may, at its discretion, reach out to the Seller about possible reactivation.
(c) No Expiration-Based Urgency Representations EXR does not use artificial expiration timers, countdown pressure, or false-scarcity messaging on listings. Buyer acknowledges that an active listing’s continued availability reflects the Seller’s ongoing confirmation under the 90-day availability check-in process described in Section 4.8(c) of the Terms of Service, not a fixed expiration date, and that Buyer is responsible for conducting appropriate due diligence within a reasonable time frame.
3. Buyer’s Fees & Sales Premium
3.1 Platinum & Gold — Sales Premium For Platinum and Gold listings, the Seller selects one of three Sales Premium structures during listing creation. The applicable structure is always displayed on the Listing page before Buyer bids or makes an offer. Buyer is responsible for reviewing the applicable Sales Premium structure before participating.
- Buyer’s Premium (Platform Default): Buyer pays the full 5% Sales Premium upon a Winning Event.
- Split Premium: Buyer pays 50% of the total Sales Premium upon a Winning Event.
- Seller’s Premium: Buyer pays no Sales Premium. The Seller covers the full amount.
The Sales Premium is calculated as follows:
| Sale Price | Premium Rate | Amount Due |
|---|---|---|
| Up to $15,000 | 5% (minimum $750) | $750 minimum |
| $15,001 – $149,999 | 5% | 5% of sale price |
| $150,000 – $749,999 | 5% (capped at $7,500) | $7,500 maximum |
| $750,000 and above | 1% | 1% of sale price |
Upon a Winning Event, the applicable Sales Premium (if any is owed by Buyer) is automatically and immediately charged to Buyer’s payment method on file. Successful collection of the Sales Premium is a prerequisite for the release of contact information between Buyer and Seller.
Except as expressly provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, the Sales Premium is non-refundable under all circumstances.
3.2 Fees in USD All bids, offers, fees, and purchase amounts are denominated in United States Dollars (USD).
4. Buyer’s Obligations
4.1 Binding Bids & Offers Pursuant to the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), clicking “Bid,” “Buy Now,” or “Make Offer” — or otherwise engaging with platform transactional features — constitutes Buyer’s legally binding electronic signature and creates a binding contractual obligation to purchase the Listing at the agreed price, subject to the PPI provisions in Section 5. A bid or offer is only valid when submitted against a listing that is active on the EXR platform at the time of submission; a Buyer cannot bind a Seller, or be bound, by a bid or offer submitted against a listing that is cancelled, archived, or otherwise inactive at the time of submission, as described in Section 2.3.
4.2 The 7-7-72 Performance Timeline (Platinum & Gold) Following a Winning Event on a Platinum or Gold listing, Buyer agrees to the following mandatory performance windows:
- 7-Day PPI Window: Buyer has seven (7) business days from notification of Winning Buyer status to complete a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) or in-person inspection, at Buyer’s discretion and expense.
- 7-Day Payment Window: Buyer must fund the full purchase price within seven (7) business days of the Winning Event, or within seven (7) business days of a completed and satisfactory PPI, whichever is later.
Failure to complete payment within the required window constitutes a Buyer default under Section 7 of this Agreement.
4.3 Insurance Buyer is responsible for securing appropriate insurance coverage on the purchased Listing at the time of legal ownership transfer.
4.4 Taxes & Registration Buyer is solely responsible for all applicable sales taxes, use taxes, registration fees, and any other governmental charges arising from the purchase. EXR does not collect, remit, or advise on taxes or registration fees. Buyer is encouraged to consult a qualified tax or legal professional regarding their obligations.
4.5 Accurate Information Buyer represents and warrants that all information provided to EXR upon registration and throughout the transaction is true, complete, and correct.
4.6 Compliance Buyer shall comply with all applicable provisions of the How It Works pages, Marketplace Process page, Terms of Service, and all other incorporated documents with regard to payment, inspection, and delivery of the Listing.
5. Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) & Cancellation
5.1 PPI Rights For Platinum and Gold purchases, Buyer has the right to complete a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) within seven (7) business days of notification of Winning Buyer status. EXR can assist in coordinating a PPI through our third-party partner network. The PPI is at Buyer’s discretion and expense.
5.2 Grounds for Cancellation A completed Platinum or Gold transaction may only be cancelled if a PPI reveals a Major Undisclosed Defect — meaning a material structural failure, undisclosed mechanical damage, engine damage, or title discrepancy that was not disclosed in the Listing and was not reasonably observable from the listing media.
5.3 Buyer’s Remorse — Not Grounds for Cancellation Cancellation for buyer’s remorse, change of mind, or minor cosmetic wear consistent with normal use of a race car or motorsport vehicle is not permitted. Race cars and motorsport vehicles are used in demanding conditions; normal wear and minor cosmetic imperfections are expected and do not constitute grounds for cancellation.
5.4 As-Is Sales All Listings are sold “AS IS, WHERE IS” following the expiration of the PPI window or waiver thereof. EXR makes no warranties — express or implied — regarding any listed item, including but not limited to any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or accuracy of listing content. Any warranty offered by a Seller is made solely by that Seller and is the Seller’s sole responsibility.
5.5 Motorsports Liability & Assumption of Risk MOTORSPORTS ARE INHERENTLY DANGEROUS. RACE CARS AND HIGH-PERFORMANCE VEHICLES MAY BE MODIFIED FOR COMPETITION USE AND MAY NOT BE STREET LEGAL, ROAD REGISTERED, OR COMPLIANT WITH ANY APPLICABLE SAFETY STANDARDS FOR USE ON PUBLIC ROADS. BY PURCHASING ANY ITEM THROUGH THE EXR PLATFORM, BUYER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND ASSUMES ALL RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE USE, OPERATION, OR OWNERSHIP OF THE PURCHASED ITEM. EXR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY.
6. Sales Premium Refund Policy
The Sales Premium paid by Buyer is non-refundable except in the following circumstances:
- Exception 1 — Unknown Defect (No Seller Fault): If a PPI reveals major issues unknown to the Seller, and the parties cannot agree on a remedy, EXR will refund the Sales Premium amount paid by Buyer, minus any fees or administrative charges incurred by EXR in processing the refund.
- Exception 2 — Known Undisclosed Defect (Seller at Fault): If a PPI reveals major issues that were known to the Seller or should reasonably have been known, and were not disclosed in the Listing, and the parties cannot agree on a remedy, EXR will refund the full Sales Premium amount paid by Buyer. The Seller will be charged the full amount refunded plus any administrative fees.
- Exception 3 — Seller Fails to Deliver: If the Seller fails to release the Listing and title within seventy-two (72) hours of confirmed receipt of full payment, EXR will refund the full Sales Premium amount paid by Buyer. The Seller will be charged the full amount refunded plus administrative fees and the full Sales Premium.
EXR shall serve as the final arbitrator of all refund determinations. EXR’s decision is final and binding.
7. Buyer Default & Liability
If Buyer fails to comply with its obligations under this Agreement — including but not limited to failing to fund the full purchase price within the required payment window, or failing to arrange for or accept delivery of the Listing within the applicable delivery period — Buyer shall be in default under this Agreement.
Upon default, Buyer shall be obligated to pay to EXR, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the full Sales Premium applicable to the Listing (regardless of which Sales Premium option was selected by Seller). Buyer also acknowledges that Buyer may be additionally liable to Seller for damages resulting from Buyer’s default.
Buyer and EXR agree and acknowledge that it would be difficult to ascertain the precise amount of damages incurred by EXR due to Buyer’s default and that the liquidated damages provided for herein are a reasonable estimate of those damages. EXR is authorized to charge any amount referenced in this Section to Buyer’s payment method on file.
8. Seller Default
In the event that Seller fails to make the Listing available to Buyer following a completed Winning Event, Buyer agrees and acknowledges that EXR will not be liable for such default by Seller. EXR’s obligations in the event of Seller default are limited to those refund provisions expressly set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement and the Terms of Service. Buyer acknowledges that Buyer shall have no other claim against EXR with respect to a default by Seller.
9. EXR’s Role & Disclaimers
EXR acts solely as a marketplace facilitator. EXR is not a party to any transaction between Buyer and Seller and does not act as an agent, escrow agent, title company, attorney, appraiser, or any other expert on behalf of Buyer.

EXR shall not be charged with the delivery, custody, management, maintenance, security, insuring, or repair of any Listing and shall have no ability to control whether any Listing undergoes any change or damage following purchase but before Buyer receives possession.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXR, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PURCHASE OR ATTEMPTED PURCHASE OF ANY LISTING ON THE EXR PLATFORM.
