Credit Cards
Registration with West Auctions is free, but we do require a valid credit card to be on file for all of our users. This assists us with bidder verification and ensures that our auctions aren't unfairly manipulated by false bidders. Unless you authorize a charge however, your card will never be charged for anything.

Buyer's Premiums
Some auctions inlude a buyer's premium. Buyer's premiums are clearly posted when they apply. When calculating the final price, the buyer's premium is added to the selling price before sales tax is calculated.

Convenience Fee
Some auctions will include a convenience fee for using the online credit card payment system.

Sales Tax
Sales tax rates vary by region. West Auctions collects all applicable taxes on behalf of sellers. Buyers with resale licenses or tax-exempt status should submit relevant documentation prior to invoicing. International and out-of-state purchases may qualify for a sales tax refund when a valid bill of lading is presented along with the request. West Auctions does not collect sales tax on titled vehicles. Purchase prices for vehicles listed with West Auctions do not include licensing, registration, and sales tax fees.

Please read the terms and conditions of each auction to see what buyer fees apply, if any.
