Trade-only marketplace
Listings are aimed at motor trade buyers. Vehicles are commonly sold for spares or repairs — no warranty is implied or given unless a seller expressly states otherwise in writing. GCB Marketplace is not a consumer retail store and does not sell to the general public as private buyers.
