Dealer Spread Checklist

Turn a dealer quote into a checklist: spot, ask, bid, fees, settlement timing, product route, and buyback confidence.

Open dashboard Create alert Track portfolio

What it checks

Enter spot, ask, bid, shipping, tax, and payment fee to estimate all-in premium and round-trip spread.

Why it matters

A dealer quote is not just a spot-plus-premium number. Payment method, bid confidence, shipping, and tax can change the route.

Review rule

Use the checklist before comparing dealers, then save the terms so later buyback decisions can be checked against the original route.
