Our company is a registered broker with Copart Auto Auctions. By joining our site, registered members will have direct access to 100,000+ vehicles offered by Copart and their own personal bidder account and will be able to participate in online auctions individually. You will have the opportunity to save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars — all without the need for a dealer’s license. You can go direct to copart.com as well and place a bid but many items do require you have a auto dealers license.
Before you can bid and buy iitems from out site you must have a minimum of $400 in deposit on file with us. This amount will let you bid a maximum of $4,000. So if you plan to buy more expensive vehicles, the security deposit should be 10% of your maximum bid (for example: To bid $10,000, you need to have a deposit of $1,000). You must pay the security deposit using either a credit or debit card or wire transfer.
This security deposit is necessary to protect us in the event that you fail to pay for an awarded vehicle, as we will be financially responsible. You will forfeit your security deposit if you win a vehicle but fail to pay for it within two days of the sale/award. Deposits are 100% fully refundable but do not factor into the cost of the vehicle, fee or shipping either in part or in full! We can refund security deposits at any time, but all transactions must clear (paid in full) and you must pick up the vehicles from the auction facilities before you can submit a refund request. Generally, We processes refund requests within 5–7 business days and remits your refund to you in the same payment form in which you originally made the deposit. However, We will refund deposits made by debit or credit card or PayPal that are more than 60 days old in the form of a check and mail it to you within 10 business days, for residents of the U.S. and Canada. Residents from all other countries will receive their security deposit refund by wire transfer.
Your deposit simply remains in your account for any future bids you wish to submit. If at any time you wish to request a refund of your deposit, you can request a refund of your deposit.
All the information we have available to share is displayed in the vehicle listing. We list thousands of cars per week and they are located all over the country and we know very little about them. You can also visit any auction location and inspect vehicles yourself. Additionally, you can order inspection services through our company; this option is available in every listing. We strongly encourage you to take advantage of this opiton
Run & Drive is part of Copart’s verification process. If the vehicle is Run & Drive-verified, Copart has confirmed firsthand that, upon arrival at the Copart Auction facility, the vehicle started, could be put into gear and was capable of moving forward under its own power. Please note, however, that this does not speak to or guarantee the vehicle’s condition upon purchase and removal from the premises. It is the sole responsibility of each member to comprehensively inspect and research the condition and history of any vehicle(s) on which he bids, as any vehicle is considered “as is” once removed from the lot. Our company offers members a variety of ways in which to inspect and investigate vehicles before bidding, so you can buy with confidence.
You are responsible for shipping your vehicle(s), as this is not included with the purchase price. Copart does offer discounted shipping if you do not want to pick up the item yourself and makes it easy, and we offer extremely competitive shipping rates. Please contact us today for pricing options and pickup/delivery times.
A car shipping calculator is displayed with every lot page on coparts website, and it is easy to use.
