THE OPEN TERMS GUIDE
How to list boats, vehicles and equipment for sale
Help buyers compare the asset, its location, condition and full asking price before discussing a deal.
By OPEN TERMS · Updated 13 November 2026 · General information
What belongs in the title?
Use the make, model, year and asset type where known. Choose Boats, Vehicles or Equipment and the country where the asset is located. Include a city or region so buyers can assess inspection and collection. Do not imply worldwide delivery just because an advert can be viewed worldwide.
Which details help buyers decide?
For a vehicle, include mileage and service history. For a boat, describe hull, engine, engine hours where known, trailer and inclusions. For equipment, give model, operating hours, attachments and maintenance information. Describe known faults, existing finance and any records available. Use current photographs you own or are authorised to publish.
How should I show the price?
Enter the full asking amount in the selected currency and explain inclusions and tax treatment where relevant. The country selection suggests a currency, which you can change. OPEN TERMS does not convert asking prices or establish an exchange rate. Explain delivery, inspection and transfer costs separately.
Can I offer a part exchange?
Describe the kind of asset you might consider and any conditions. Each asset still needs ownership, debt, condition and value checks. Agree the cash difference and transfer arrangements with appropriate local advice before committing.
What happens after I submit?
OPEN TERMS reviews submissions before they appear publicly. Buyers use your chosen contact or listing link to make enquiries. Keep the status current when the asset sells. Posting is free; listing approval is not a guarantee of condition, ownership or a sale.
