Payment
Buyers must provide payment in full, including applicable taxes and fees, before the specified payment period is over. The payment period varies between auctions, but it is usually two business days. Financing for auction purchases is available through AuctionLease or other third-party providers, but West Auctions does not provide any financing services. Payment for purchased items is not contingent on financing.
Once an auction has concluded, buyers are notified via email that an invoice has been created for their purchases. Invoices may be paid quickly online using MasterCard, Visa, Discover or American Express. Buyers wishing to pay by cashier's check, wire transfer, or personal check should make sure that their payment is received by West Auctions before the payment period is over. Once funds are verified, purchased items are released to the buyer for removal as per our removal policy.
Title Transfer
Ownership of auction items is transferred from the seller to the buyer as soon as a copy of the buyer's fully paid invoice is presented for item removal. Titles for vehicles are released to the new owner when the vehicle is picked up or via certified mail within 5 business days of receipt of payment.
West Auctions does not provide any vehicle registration services. However, we understand that some titles may need additional documents to ensure the proper transfer. Please notify West Auctions within 10 business days of receipt of title if any additional documentation is required. Documentation assistance requests made after the 10 day grace period will be addressed at our convenience.
NOTE: Buyers are responsible for all applicable fees associated with a vehicle title.
