Guaranteed price: CamperProff covers the shortfall up to the guaranteed price, at most 30% of it
With the guaranteed price, CamperProff sets a hidden guaranteed price, G, on your vehicle. The auction runs without a reserve in the standard round: it starts at 09:00 Danish time, usually on a Monday, and ends the next bank day at 09:00. If the vehicle sells for less than G after bids from at least 2 different buyers, CamperProff covers the difference, up to 30% of G. Here is how it works and what it costs, before you choose it in the seller flow.
The guaranteed price cannot be chosen in the seller flow yet. It is included from launch and opens as soon as secure payment is active.
Answers
- The exchange
- CamperProff is a closed B2B dealer exchange where approved dealers buy and sell used motorhomes and caravans with each other. Consumers have no access.
- From launch
- Trading, secure payment and the guaranteed price are open from launch for approved dealers. The three are included from the start.
- Strongest reason
- The strongest reason to sell on CamperProff is the guaranteed price.
- Guaranteed price
- The guaranteed price is open from launch. CamperProff's top-up is at most 30% of the guaranteed price. The cap limits CamperProff's contribution; it is not a lower guaranteed price. Of any price above the guarantee, CamperProff receives 30%, capped at €700 excl. VAT per trade, plus VAT. CamperProff answers a request for a guaranteed price within 2 hours on weekdays, 8:00–17:00 Danish time. A request made outside those hours is answered within 2 hours from 8:00 on the next weekday.

- Sell winter trade-ins to dealers who are building spring stock.
An example
Guaranteed price €28,000. Amounts are excl. VAT; VAT is added on top of the fees.
- Hammer price €30,000: the uplift is €2,000, CamperProff's share is €600 and the seller commission is €225. Before VAT on the fees, your settlement is €29,175.
- Hammer price €40,000: 30% of the uplift would exceed the cap, so CamperProff's share is €700. The seller commission is €300, and your settlement before VAT on the fees is €39,000.
- Hammer price €27,000: CamperProff covers €1,000 up to G. The seller commission is €202.50, calculated on the hammer price, and your settlement before VAT on the commission is €27,797.50.
What the guaranteed price is
The guaranteed price is a sales track in the seller flow that you choose instead of a regular auction. CamperProff approves a price, G, for your specific vehicle. G is hidden from buyers. The auction runs without a reserve: the highest bid wins, unless only one buyer has bid below G (see below). On a completed sale where the guarantee has not lapsed and the hammer price is at least 70% of G, you receive at least G, before the seller commission. CamperProff carries the guarantee and never buys the vehicle itself.
How G is set
G is based on market data for comparable vehicles, not on your asking price. No dealer has promised in advance to bid a minimum amount. CamperProff reviews and confirms each guaranteed price before you see it. You receive a concrete offer with G and the terms, and you decide whether to accept. The offer shows how long it can be accepted. Once you accept, the vehicle joins the next fixed round. An estimate or an AI valuation is not an offer.
- CamperProff answers a request for a guaranteed price within 2 hours on weekdays, 8:00–17:00 Danish time. A request made outside those hours is answered within 2 hours from 8:00 on the next weekday.
- CamperProff may decline to offer a guaranteed price on a vehicle, for example when the market evidence is too thin. You then receive an indicative valuation, which is not an offer to buy, and can start a regular auction instead.
What it costs
There is no listing fee. As in a regular auction, the seller pays the seller commission: 0.75% of the hammer price, capped at €350 excl. VAT, plus VAT. In addition, CamperProff receives 30% of the uplift, meaning the part of the hammer price above G, capped at €700 excl. VAT per trade, with VAT on top. You keep the rest of the uplift. The buyer pays the ordinary buyer commission.
- Danish businesses pay 25 % Danish VAT on the fees. Businesses in other EU countries with a VAT number confirmed in VIES are invoiced without Danish VAT (reverse charge). Without a confirmed VAT number you cannot trade.
If the hammer price ends below G
When the hammer price is below G, the auction has received bids from at least 2 different buyers, and the buyer pays, CamperProff covers the difference up to G. If only one buyer has bid, the guarantee lapses, and you decide before the answer deadline whether to accept the bid as an ordinary sale without cover. If you decline, or the deadline passes, the vehicle is not sold. CamperProff's top-up is at most 30% of G: if the auction ends below 70% of G, you decide before the answer deadline whether to accept the bid with a top-up of 30% of G or not to sell. Buyers that share a VAT/CVR number count as one buyer, and a buyer linked to your company does not count. The seller commission is calculated on the hammer price, not on G. If the hammer price is above G, the uplift is shared as described above.
When the guarantee lapses
The guarantee applies to this auction. If it ends without bids, the seller withdraws it, or the buyer does not pay, the guarantee lapses and CamperProff pays nothing. The same applies if CamperProff stops the auction because the seller has materially breached the terms of trade. If CamperProff stops the auction for other reasons, the guarantee does not lapse: CamperProff offers the seller a new auction with the same guaranteed price, or the seller may cancel at no cost.
- If the auction ends without bids, or the listing is withdrawn, you can relist the vehicle as a regular auction without a guarantee.
- If the buyer does not pay, you can offer the vehicle to the next-best bidder. A sale at or above G is settled on the same guarantee terms. A sale below G is an ordinary sale without cover. A relisting is always without a guarantee.
Who can choose the guaranteed price
Approved dealers in the 27 EU member states with a VAT number confirmed in VIES. Danish companies are approved through the CVR check. The guaranteed price is offered only with secure payment.
How you choose it
Under Photos and sales track in the seller flow you choose a sales track. If you choose the guaranteed price, CamperProff assesses the vehicle and you receive an offer or a reasoned valuation without a guarantee. You can always choose a regular auction instead. The specific, versioned terms are shown before you accept and are frozen on your listing when you accept.
