Fixed-scope fees

You pay for the dossier, never for the sale

Each fee is agreed before any work starts and is billed per vehicle. We take no commission from a seller, a dealer or a finance company. This is independent buyer-side assistance, not a government body, not a warranty, not insurance, and not an official inspection certificate.

No commission

Nobody pays us for a signed deal. Fees come from the buyer only.

Payment timing

Document review is paid on delivery of the report. Assessment and dossier take a 50% booking payment. See fee terms.

Service limits

No hidden-defect guarantee, no registry access, no repair estimates. Read the limits and questions.

Fee terms

Fixed scope, fixed price, nothing from the seller

You pay handmaddle.com for the dossier. No money is collected from the seller, the dealer or the listing platform, so the report has no reason to favour a sale.

  • Seller or dealer commission

    None, in any form

    No referral fee, finder fee or discount from the selling side. Method: written declaration in every engagement letter.

    Fixed
  • Dossier fee

    Agreed in writing before the visit

    One car, one visit, one report. The amount is confirmed in the engagement letter, with no hourly billing and no charge per defect photographed.

  • Payment timing

    On delivery of the report

    The invoice follows the visit report and the document review, after both are handed to you. No deposit is needed to hold the slot.

    On delivery
  • Cancellation

    Free up to 24 hours before the visit

    Cancel or reschedule by phone or email inside that window at no cost. Later cancellations are charged at the agreed fee.

  • Service limits

    Condition and document consistency only

    We are an independent buyer-side service. Not a government body, not a warranty, not insurance, not an official inspection certificate.

    Boundary

What the fee does not cover

  • Transport, parts and any repair cost after the purchase.
  • Registry, court or enforcement checks. You receive the official verification checklist to run yourself.
  • Negotiating on your behalf, or a verdict that a car is good to buy.

Fee amounts per scope are listed in the pricing tiers. Edge cases are answered in limits and FAQ, or ask us directly on the contact page.

Scope ledger

What the dossier can and cannot tell you

Independent buyer-side assistance. Not a government body, not a warranty, not insurance, and not an official inspection certificate. Each answer below states its own limit.

No. We grade what is visible and measurable on the inspection date as Minor, Monitor or Stop. A Stop item means we would pause the purchase, not that the car is proven unsafe. Faults that appear later, or that sit behind panels, seals and software, stay outside any grading.

Method: static and mobile inspection, photographed evidence rows, dated on the report cover.
