We are licensed members of the listed auction houses. However, each auction's services, terms, and bidding rules vary and may change without notice. Please refer to the official auction house information or contact us for details.

1. Overview of Memberships

We hold official membership at the following major Japanese auto auction houses. This grants us access to vehicle information and priority bidding slots that are unavailable to unregistered buyers.

  • USS (Japan's largest used car auction)
  • TAA (Toyota Auto Auction)
  • CAA (Chubu Auto Auction)
  • JU (Japan Used Car Dealers Association)
  • HAA (Honda Auto Auction)
  • Many other regional auctions

2. Key Auction House Features

Each auction house has its own specialty and inventory profile. Our multiple memberships allow us to cross-search and source the best vehicle for your needs.

  • USS: Largest volume. All makes and models, especially strong in late-model, low-mileage units.
  • TAA: Specializes in Toyota vehicles. Many dealer trade-ins with consistent quality.
  • CAA: High-quality vehicles from the Chubu region. Strict inspection standards ensure reliability.
  • JU: Nationwide network. Strong selection of kei cars and commercial vehicles.

3. Benefits of Our Memberships

As a licensed member, you benefit from the following.

  • Access to members-only auction sheets including detailed inspection reports not available to the public.
  • Participation in live bidding (real-time price negotiation).
  • Priority bidding slots and competitive purchase prices.
  • Physical vehicle inspection available (on-site checks at auction yards).
  • Seamless post-auction support from payment and collection to export documentation.

4. Trust and Track Record

Through years of sustained membership and transaction history, we hold high credit ratings with all major auction houses. This trust translates into smooth execution and peace of mind for our customers.

We provide the original auction inspection report for every purchased vehicle, ensuring full transparency.

5. How It Works

Basic steps when purchasing an auction vehicle through us.

  1. Send us your requirements (make, model, budget, year, etc.).
  2. We select matching vehicles across multiple auctions and send you the auction sheets.
  3. You choose the vehicle(s) and maximum bid price.
  4. On auction day, we bid live on your behalf. We report immediately upon winning.
  5. After payment confirmation, we arrange collection, inspection, and shipping.

6. Guarantee and Support

We perform our own quality check and final pre-export inspection on every auction vehicle. In the rare event of a significant discrepancy between the auction sheet and the actual vehicle, we will address it fairly according to our internal policies.
