For approved dealerships · Australia · Multi-franchise
The part is on a shelf.
Just not yours.
Every dealer in the country is sitting on the same two problems: aged OE dying in the bin, and a job on the hoist waiting on a number someone else already holds. DEALER SEARCH is the dealer-only network that fixes both — Toyota, Kia, Ford, Hyundai, and the rest of the makes you actually sell.
Not a manufacturer portal. Not a public marketplace. Approved dealers only — tick the franchises you sell, and you accept or deny every order.
The two problems
You already know both of these Mondays.
Dead stock in the rack
Aged OE you bought at cost, covered for a job that never came back, or overstocked because TUNE or Pentana said you needed it. It sits. It ages. Then it writes off — Toyota 130 or Kia 140, same story.
- Real dealer cost tied up in slow numbers
- Same part gathering dust in three other stores of that franchise
- No clean way to offer it to the network at an age discount
The job on the hoist
Customer’s waiting. You haven’t got the number. You ring around. Someone “thinks they have one”. Freight is a guess. The day gets away from you.
- Phone tag instead of a search of your own franchises
- No live qty, no dealer price, no accept/deny
- The part was listed as excess at another store the whole time
How it actually works
You already export TUNE or Pentana. That’s the on-ramp.
TUNE dealers upload Part Movement History (and bin location). Pentana dealers drop a live file into a Gator folder. DEALER SEARCH holds your fast-moving cover for your own workshop. Only the units above that usage list to other dealers — at the age discounts you set — and only for the brands that rooftop sells.
- Import TUNE movement CSV, or a Pentana PDF via Live Connection. Updates stock, age, and what is listed — per franchise.
- Protect Sold-in-window cover stays yours. Fast movers are hidden unless you choose to list them.
- Discount Aged excess lists at your rules, per brand. Older stock can go free freight. Bulk extra if they take more.
- Move Another dealer searches the OE, orders, you accept or deny. Checkout splits by dealer and brand. Both sides get a clean email.
Fast-moving window — 1 month
Not “must sell 1 every month”. It compares SOH with units sold in the window. Leftover is what other dealers can buy.
| SOH | Sold | What lists |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | Nothing — fully covered, stays yours |
| 2 | 1 | The extra 1 lists as aged / dead |
| 5 | 0 | All 5 list as aged / dead |
| 5 | 5 | Nothing — all working stock |

You can change every rule, and keep different rules for Toyota and Kia if you want. Fast-moving cover is never discounted as dead stock.
A real aged line
Cost $95.01. Another dealer pays $76.01.
That’s $19 off dealer cost on dead stock that was never going to walk out the door at full. Old enough for free shipping, so the buying dealer actually takes it. The supplying dealer gets cash out of a write-off. The buying dealer saves the job.

FreightFree — aged enough
- Approved dealers only. Every account is reviewed before access.
- Own franchises only. Staff search the makes that rooftop sells — not every brand in the catalog.
- Accept or deny. Nothing ships until you say so. Deny reason emails the buyer.
- Pending holds qty. Search updates the moment an order is placed. Your team sees it.
- One cart, many stores. Checkout splits by dealer and brand. Each warehouse fulfils its own lines.
The order
Search the OE. Order. Done.
Look up one number or paste a comma-separated list. See who has it, qty, dealer price ex GST, and whether freight is free. Direct to the supplying dealer — with TNT / FedEx account and that franchise’s ship-to on the order.
