MrCarGeek Cons for RM Sotheby's
High Fees – Buyers pay a 10-12% premium, and sellers pay a negotiated commission, often higher than online-only platforms.
Strict Consignment Standards – Not all cars qualify; RM Sotheby’s focuses on top-tier collectibles rather than everyday classics.
Limited Auctions Per Year – With only a few high-profile sales annually, buyers must wait for the right event.
Not Ideal for Budget Buyers – Most vehicles sell in the six-to-eight-figure range, making it less accessible for casual enthusiasts.
