About Us | VehicleAuctionCalculator.co.za

At VehicleAuctionCalculator.co.za, we believe every bidder should enter a South African vehicle auction with full confidence in their budget. We cut through the complexity of hidden fees, VAT, and commissions to give you instant clarity on what you’ll really pay.

Why We Started

"I lost R8,000 on my first auction car because I didn’t factor in fees!" Founded in [Year] by [Name/Team], our tool was born from a frustrating (and expensive) auction experience. We realized:

Most buyers underestimate total costs by 15–25%.

Fee structures vary wildly across auctions (e.g., refundable vs. non-refundable deposits).

No free tools existed to simplify these calculations for South Africans.

What Makes Us Different ✅ Tailored to South Africa: Local fee structures (e.g., 15% VAT, typical SA auction commissions). Costs in ZAR (no confusing currency conversions). ✅ No Fluff, Just Facts: We don’t sell cars or partner with auctions—our calculator is 100% impartial. ✅ Always Free & Accessible: No signups, no ads, just instant results. Who We Help 1. First-Time Bidders Avoid "sticker shock" by seeing the true cost upfront. 2. Seasoned Dealers Quickly compare profit margins across multiple auctions. 3. Private Buyers Decide if auctions are truly cheaper than dealerships.
