FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ’S)
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU PARTICIPATE
IN A BUS AUCTION
Q. HOW CAN I PARTICIPATE IN AN AUCTION?
A. You can pre-register on the Internet prior to the auction or come to
the office on the day of the auction. Please use the bus buyer pre-registration
form located at our website (bus auction registration form link). On the
day of the auction, go to the Internet bus registration window to deposit
your funds and show your ID. You may also register and get your assigned
bidder number between 8:00 AM and 9:30 AM sale day. You need to show two
(2) forms of ID to register. Foreign buyers must present their driver’s
license and passport or US visa. Similarly, foreign residents in the US
must present their driver’s license and green card. Titles are processed
on sale day. Whatever name you want on your title is how you should register,
whether it is an individual’s or a company name.
Q WHAT ARE THE AUCTION HOURS?
A. Both bus and car auctions start promptly at 9:30 AM. The auctions end
whenever the last vehicle is sold. As soon as you are done purchasing,
please come to the office to check out.
Q. HOW DO I PAY FOR MY BUS?
A. There are only four (4) ways to pay for the bus you wish to buy:
1. Pay cash in U.S. dollars. You must deposit your funds when registering.
You must count your money before getting in line to register. If you do
not buy a bus, we will return your deposit in full that day.
2. Cashier checks drawn on a US. bank. You may bring the cashier check
on the day of the auction. Make your checks payable to 422 Sales. If you
do not buy a bus, we will hand the cashier check(s) back to you. If you
purchase one (1) or more buses, we will write a check to you for the difference.
3. Wire transfer. Call us at (724) 368–8885 at least seven (7) days
prior to the auction so we can explain to you how to transfer your money.
If you do not buy a bus, we will issue a check for the available funds
wired, or you may choose to have the funds wired back to you. If you purchase
one or more buses, we will write a check to you for the difference.
4. An irrevocable bank letter of guarantee from a US bank may be used
with business or personal checks. Please use the sample of irrevocable
bank letter of guarantee located on our website (bank letter link). Have
your bank fax us a copy to 724-368-8774 at least three (3) days prior
to the auction. Bring the original with you sale day. The numbers of your
checking account must match the bank letter. If you did not buy a bus,
we will return the check to you. If you purchase one or more buses, we
will write your check for the amount purchased.
Q. CAN I PAY WITH TRAVELERS CHECKS, CREDIT CARDS,
OR PERSONAL CHECKS?
A. 422 Sales does not accept traveler’s checks, credit cards, or
personal checks that are not accompanied by an irrevocable bank letter
of guarantee from a US bank.
Q. WHAT ADDITIONAL CHARGES DO I HAVE TO PAY WHEN
BUYING A BUS?
A. The fees and expenses in addition to the bid price are:
1. Buyer’s fee: $100 plus 6% of the
bid price per unit.
2. Temporary plates $30. You may bring your own plates. Moreover, you
need to bring valid commercial insurance for your purchased bus. The insurance
