Barrett-Jackson announced the official launch of its Digital Select Auctions platform. The new online marketplace will feature curated collector vehicles, allowing automotive enthusiasts worldwide to bid and buy during exclusive, timed digital events, auction officials stated in a press release. The premiere Barrett-Jackson Digital Select Auction is scheduled for Nov. 5-12 at Barrett-Jackson.com.
Barrett-Jackson Digital Select Auctions will deliver a premium online marketplace where Barrett-Jackson is at the center of every transaction (holding the money and the title), giving buyers and sellers confidence throughout the auction process, the release noted.
“Our live auctions are unmatched, but the demand for the Barrett-Jackson experience extends far beyond our physical arenas,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “This online platform bridges that gap, giving our global community a convenient, accessible way to buy and sell exceptional vehicles from home. For more than 50 years, we have built our reputation on authentic, transparent auctions where the sales are real, and the buyers are enthusiastic and qualified. That same commitment carries directly into Digital Select Auctions, ensuring participants know that what they see is exactly what they get.”
