Frequently Asked Questions: From Auction Access to Delivery

We don’t keep a static car list — and that’s better for you.

Traditional dealers buy inventory first, then mark it up to sell to you. Instead, we give you direct access to Japan’s wholesale auction networks (USS, TAA, CAA, JU).

✅ 200,000+ vehicles listed weekly — you see what Japanese dealers see.
✅ You tell us what you want — we find it at wholesale price.
✅ No retail markup — you pay auction price + our transparent fee.

How to start: Send us your wishlist (make, model, year, budget). We’ll send back auction sheets within 24 hours.

Our pricing is consistently competitive for the following reasons:

  • No intermediaries or agencies – We operate without middlemen, which avoids an additional 10–30% markup commonly added by agents or third parties.
  • We do not hold inventory – This fundamentally removes the financial pressures associated with unsold stock, such as storage, depreciation, and carrying costs.
  • We monitor weekly market price trends – By staying current, we factor in expected depreciation on aging stock, ensuring our quotes reflect real-time market value.
  • Transparent, component-based pricing – Our quotes are strictly broken down as:
    Auction hammer price + Our published service fee + Current month’s freight charges
