How to Buy Now

Buy Now lets you take a lot at its fixed price instead of waiting for the auction to close. Here’s exactly what happens — including the payment in full that secures it.

1

Find a listing with a Buy Now price

Not every auction has one. Listings that offer it show a Buy Now price under the current bid.

2

Sign in to your account

Buy Now is tied to a signed-in account, so the reservation, your documents and the delivery go to the right buyer.

3

Confirm the commitment

Before anything happens you see the price and the full amount it requires, and confirm that you intend to complete the purchase. Buy Now is a binding offer at that price.

4

The lot is reserved for you

Bidding stops and the lot is held in your name. You receive an email with the amount due — the full purchase price — and a deadline 24 hours away.

5

Pay in full and send the receipt

Pay by bank wire, then email the bank receipt to sales@auctionbidsf.com with the listing ID. Once it is matched we confirm by email, and nothing further is owed.

6

Documents and delivery

Your purchase agreement, invoice and shipping quote are in My Purchases right away; the bill of sale follows payment in full. We then schedule transport and email you a tracking code.

Common Questions

Does Buy Now end the auction?
It pauses it. The lot is reserved in your name and bidding stops while the payment is outstanding. Once the payment is confirmed the lot is yours; if it is not received in time, the lot goes back into the auction.
What if I don’t pay in time?
The hold is released automatically and the lot returns to the auction with the earlier bids intact. Nothing is charged to you.
Is the full amount due up front?
Yes. Every lot is sold on payment in full, in one bank wire, before the vehicle ships. The exact amount is shown before you confirm.
Is the Buy Now price negotiable?
The Buy Now price is fixed. It reflects the seller’s price for an immediate sale — you can always bid instead.
What if two people click Buy Now?
Only one reservation can succeed. The first one confirmed holds the lot; the other buyer is told right away that it is no longer available, and owes nothing.
