What JDMBUYSELL offers dealers

JDM-focused marketplace

Every buyer on JDMBUYSELL is here for Japanese domestic market vehicles — no general classifieds noise. Imported buyer demand across sports cars, kei trucks, minivans, and collector chassis.

International marketplace

Dealer inventory is presented in an international marketplace for JDM vehicles. Use your dealer profile to show your inventory and contact details to people browsing the site.

How directory ranking works

Dealer cards in the directory are ranked by a composite score: reply rate, reply time, Google place rating, and listing activity. See the full methodology →

Two ways to list inventory

Pick the path that fits your workflow. Both are free.

Manual

Post each car yourself

Sign up, get approved, then post cars one at a time through /sell/. Each listing takes a few minutes.

  • ~5 minutes per listing
  • 3–25 photos per car
  • Full control over pricing and copy
Automated feed

Zero-touch after setup

Share an inventory URL. We ingest CSV, XML, JSON, or RSS on a schedule and keep your listings in sync automatically. Subject to source review before activation.

  • CSV, XML, JSON, RSS formats
  • Scheduled ingest
  • Inventory changes can be synchronized from the source feed
  • Source URL reviewed before activation

The Verified dealer badge

Every approved dealer receives a Verified dealer badge on their directory card and listing pages. It means JDMBUYSELL reviewed and approved the dealer account. Some long-standing approvals were grandfathered under earlier review criteria.

  • Reviewed and approved by JDMBUYSELL
  • Displayed on the dealer directory and listings
  • Not identity verification or a buyer guarantee

Pricing

No fees

No listing fee. No commission. No buyer's premium. The same zero-fees terms that apply to private sellers apply to dealers.

How buyer leads reach you

Frequently asked questions

What countries are buyers in?
JDMBUYSELL does not publish a buyer-location breakdown or guarantee demand in any country. Buyer inquiry location changes over time and is not a demand forecast for any listing.
Do I need to verify my identity to list as a dealer?
Dealer applicants complete a one-time identity check before JDMBUYSELL approves the account. That check is separate from the Verified dealer badge: the badge means JDMBUYSELL reviewed and approved the dealer account, not that it guarantees the dealer or a transaction. Some long-standing approvals were grandfathered under earlier review criteria.
How long does approval take?
Dealer applications are reviewed within 1–2 business days. You will receive an email notification when your application status changes. If additional information is needed, the team will reach out via email.
Can I start with manual listings and switch to a feed later?
Yes. Manual and feed-based listing are not mutually exclusive. You can post cars through /sell/ from day one, and request feed ingestion setup at any point after your account is approved. Switching does not affect existing listings.
What happens if I already have an unverified seller account — do I need a new one?
No. Apply from your existing account via the dealer application in your profile settings. Your current listings transfer to the dealer account and the unverified-seller display is replaced with the dealer card once the application is approved.
Is there a listing fee, commission, or buyer's premium?
No. There is no listing fee, commission, or buyer's premium. The same zero-fees terms that apply to private sellers apply to dealers.
