To Do Before Bidding
What should I do prior to bidding?
Here are a few tips before you decide to bid in your first auction:
- Consider using the Max Bid automatic bidding function if you are a new user
- Be sure to check the location of the vehicle you want to purchase. This can help you plan for shipping costs and other transportation related expenses.
- Check your deposit, especially if you are a Basic Member. Remember, you’ll need 10% of the maximum total amount you plan to bid on a vehicle. Premier Members only need a one-time $400 deposit.
- Don’t forget about Copart’s fees when financially planning for your purchase(s).
- Pay quickly and pick up your vehicles so you won’t have to pay storage fees.
