FAQs

How long does it take for my preowned electric vehicle to go live on the site?

Before an electric bike, scooter or skateboard is added to the marketplace, it gets reviewed by the listing team to make sure everything is correct. This can take up to 2 working days but generally items will go live in just a few hours.

When do I get paid once my electric vehicle has sold?

When the buyer purchases your pre owned electric vehicle, their money is held by Ride and Glide until they have had the product in their possession for 48 hours. The buyer is not permitted to put miles on the product in these 48 hours, this is a predominantly stationary check with reasonable testing of the motors and other electrics. If no dispute is raised in this time then the funds will be released to the seller. Please see the disputes and returns section for more information.

How do I list my preowned electric vehicle?

Its really simple, just fill the form out which takes a couple of minutes.

What is your Premium Package?

If you opt for the premium package we give your electric vehicle the full works. We get your pre owned electric bike, scooter, skateboard or Onwheel into us, clean it up, photograph it professionally and market it across our website, social channels and google. It increases the chances of a fast sale whilst taking the hassle out of your hands. See HERE for more details.

Can I offer collection as well as delivery for my electric vehicle?

Absolutely, you’re welcome to offer collection if your product sells for under £1500 (products come to Ride and Glide for verification first when over this amount). Just ensure that the buyer verification number is matched to confirm the buyer’s agreement to accept the product. This step is essential to maintain coverage against fraud.

How does the verification process work?

Electric bikes, scooters, skatboards and Onewheels that sell for £1500 and above will be authenticated by our technicians before being sent on to the buyer. This may take a couple of extra days but provides the buyer with security that their purchase is legitimate and as described. It also provides the seller with peace of mind that we have passed their pre owned electric vehicle through our screening which should limit any after sales issues. Please see HERE for detailed info on the Verification process.

How do I ship my preowned electric vehicle?
