Mason Dixon Auto Auction

LIVE AUCTION AVAILABLE TO PUBLIC & DEALERS

ONLINE/SIMULCAST BIDDING IS FOR DEALER'S ONLY

1. FIRST, visit the public office to purchase a buyer's card. All Bidders MUST have a buyer's card. Vehicles purchased without a buyer's card are subject to an additional fee. Vehicles purchased with a buyer's card will be titled and registered in the name listed on the buyer’s card. In order to acquire temporary registration tags, where available, the name on the buyer's card must also match the name appearing on the proof of insurance certificate. NOTE: A fee will be charged for any NAME CHANGE made after a bid is won and a vehicle is purchased. Buyers must be 18 or older.

2. Know what you are buying! Please examine vehicles before bidding. You may inspect vehicles in the outside storage area before the auction. If you are not familiar with vehicles and their mechanical systems, you are welcome to bring along someone who is.

How to read our windshield specifications:

• A-1: This is the 1st vehicle to run through lane A
• 98: Year of vehicle
• 4831902: Stock # of the vehicle
• 1-19: Auction date

3. Listen carefully to all announcements. Familiarize yourself with the 'Light System' and 'Selling Policy' sections of this brochure. When bidding, be sure to raise your hand in a manner that allows the auctioneer to see your bid and keep your bidder badge in clear view.

4. Know what you are bidding on before you bid. For example: DO NOT buy a vehicle with a standard transmission when you really wanted an automatic; or a vehicle that has 110,000 miles on it, when you thought it only had 10,000 miles. SATISFY YOURSELF. Remember once you win a bid on a vehicle you own it!

5. Subject to the sellers' approval, the last bidder is obligated to purchase the vehicle. *Note: Vehicles are not guaranteed to pass state inspection, where applicable.

6. On-Approval Vehicles: Seller is required to provide MDAA notification of high bid acceptance by the end of the following business day. However, the majority of “On Approval” vehicles received acceptance or rejection by 12:00 P.M. of the following business day.
