General Information: The placement of a successful bid at a U.S. Department of the Treasury auction establishes a legally binding contract between the successful high bidder and the Treasury Department. The auctioneer's announcement of the high bid amount and the bidder's number establishes the contract which may be subject to final acceptance by the Government. This contract is bound by these Terms and Conditions as well as special terms and conditions published by the Contractor for the specific auction and other Federal regulations governing contracts for the purchase of government property. The successful bidder is legally bound to pay for property awarded in accordance with his/her bid. The contractor is acting as the agent of the Government with respect to the sale of Government property. Sales Disclaimer: IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL BIDDERS The vehicles offered in this public auction are offered in an "as is, where is" condition. The Government does not warrant the condition, quality, or merchant ability of the property, its fitness for any use or purpose, its ability to pass a safety inspection, or its ability to pass a motor vehicle emissions test prior to registration. Efforts have been taken to ensure that the vehicles offered for sale should be acceptable for licensure, registration, and title action by the state department of motor vehicles; however, despite all best efforts, some exceptions may arise. Therefore, the Government makes no representations, promises, or warranties regarding these vehicles, and cannot guarantee registration or title issuance by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) for any vehicle. Before you make any repairs to any vehicle purchased, you should take your sale documents (invoice and/or SF-97) to the nearest DMV office, within ten (10) business days of receipt, to verify that: - The vehicle is not in a "stolen" status. - The vehicle does not have a "salvage" classification. - The vehicle does not have a "junk" classification. - The vehicle does not have an "export" classification. - The vehicle has a legal Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). If the DMV official informs you that the vehicle fits one or more of the above categories: - Ask for a copy of the documentation, - Stop your registration process and do not pay any fees, - Do not initiate any repair or maintenance actions, - Notify the nearest AECOM/URS Federal Services office for instructions on the return of the vehicle, - Comply with instructions provided and submit a request for refund of sale price. Buyers of vehicles that are to be exported to Mexico are encouraged to administratively verify the vehicle status with the appropriate Mexican authority before taking the vehicle over the border. Upon verification of the DMV status and approval of the Government, a refund action will be initiated to return your purchase price. NO REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS, UPGRADES, OR ENHANCEMENTS TO THE VEHICLE WILL BE CONSIDERED IF BUYER FAILS TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE VERIFICATION PROCESS. Eligibility of Bidder: The Bidder warrants that he/she is not: a) Under 18 years of age; b) An employee of any department or agency of the Federal Government prohibited by the regulations of that agency from purchasing property sold hereunder; c) An agent or immediate member of the household of the employee in b) above; d) The contractor, subcontractor or vendor, their agent or employee who has access to information concerning the property to be sold at U.S. Department of the Treasury auctions that is not generally available to the public; e) Presently debarred or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency in accordance with 41 CFR 101-45.6; f) Or the party or representing the party(s) from whom the property was seized and/or forfeited.

Bid Deposit: No bid deposit required. Reserve: These auctions are conducted with reserve.

Please note: there will not be a "Reserve Met" or "Reserve Not Met" disclosure during the auction.  Preview & Inspection: Bidders are urged to inspect property/merchandise prior to bidding. Failure to inspect shall not constitute cause for cancellation of sale. Property/merchandise is available for inspection only at places and times specified by AECOM and notated in each vehicle description. Absolutely no access to property/merchandise is allowed without prior AECOM authorization. AECOM may, at its discretion, provide photographs of the property/merchandise as a courtesy to bidders. Bidders are warned against bidding on any lot(s) based solely on the sample displayed or on the basis of photographs. AECOM makes no warranty in relation to these samples or photographs. Technical Bidding Details: All lots end with a "Soft Close." A "Soft Close" means if any bid is placed within the last 5 minutes of the close of the auction, the bid will automatically extend the closing time an additional 5 minutes. Example: If a bid is placed at 2 minutes until close, it will extend the closing to 7 minutes. This feature protects bidders from being outbid without the opportunity to be notified and place another bid before the close of the auction. Placing a "Maximum Bid." Please be aware that when placing your "Maximum Bid", the website will bid on your behalf up to your set maximum bid by the preset bid increment of $100. Example: The current bid is $1000 and the bidder enters a maximum bid of $5000. The system will bid at the preset increment of $100 until the bidders "Maximum bid" is exceeded. At that point the bidder will be notified that he/she has been outbid (if that option is selected when registering). High bidder will only pay $100 more than the competing bidder. Please watch the auction closing time stop clock to determine exactly when the lot will close. Auction End & Bid Approvals: At the close of the sale, all bidders will be emailed their bid results and the totals will be forwarded to the USDT for final approval. Once we receive approval, you will receive an email notification that your bid has been approved or denied. Payment instructions will be given at that time. Buyers of IRS-CI property need to be aware that IRS has up to 3 business days to approve purchases. IRS-CI vehicles notated in the vehicle description.
