Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Bounty?
A Bounty is your public posting for a specific vehicle you're hunting. You choose the make, model, year range, and up to 3 must-have specs. It lives on the Bounty Board for 6 months where sellers can see it.
What is a Showdown?
A Showdown begins when a seller (called an Outlaw) responds to your Bounty with a matching vehicle. It's a public negotiation between you and the Outlaw. Both parties have 3 days to negotiate and agree on terms.
What is an Outlaw?
An Outlaw is a seller who has the car you're hunting. When they see your Bounty on the board and believe their vehicle matches your specs, they can initiate a Showdown.
How much does it cost to post a Bounty?
$50 for 6 months on the board. This is a one-time, non-refundable fee. It signals to sellers that you're a serious buyer with real money behind your spec.
Is a match guaranteed?
No. Your Bounty is visible to all sellers for 6 months, but finding a match depends on the rarity of your spec. The more specific your must-haves, the longer it may take — but when it hits, it's the right car.
Can I edit my Bounty after posting?
You can edit your specs (up to 3 must-haves) at any time from My Bounties. The make, model, and year range cannot be changed after posting.
What happens when my Bounty expires?
After 6 months, your Bounty is removed from the board. You'll receive an email before it expires with the option to repost.
