Advice for bidding
When you really want to get a car, go
to "One Price/Stock Cars" from which you can purchase fixed price.
Its price may be higher than auctions bid but not much.
Timing of Bids
Some auctions start early morning so
that you should check the auction after midnight in Japan time
and so that Bids should be submitted in the early morning and
must be submitted by no later than 10AM Japan time on the day
of the auction. Please make sure the Japanese local time. You
can see Japanese local time at the footer of our website.
The schedule for bidding time is set
one day before Auto Auctions are held. Therefore, the bidding
time may change depending on progress circumstance during the
auction day. The display data is subject to change by every
situation. Please have some spare time to bid on that day of
Auction.
Recent Market price
To assist you in determining a realistic
bid for a vehicle there is a Recent Market Price which gives
you information about the past won bid price of similar vehicles
that have sold over the last two months at auctions.
Starting Price
When bidding on a specific vehicle the auction
data will usually specify a starting price meaning bidding cannot
start under this price. This is the minimum bid price.
If there is no starting price then your bid can be as low as
you choose.
Result for Bidding
When you see the result for "Not
Sold”, that means that no body reaches the set amount
of minimum price that the seller want to sell. Once the bids
reach this price the car is for sale and will be sold to the
highest bidder.

Full results are available on the website
soon after the auction is finished. Some auctions continue after
midnight. Results will be available after 10am on the next day.
