GENERAL INFORMATION
Purchasing
It is the responsibility of the purchasing dealer to research and pay any back fees on the unit. It is also the
purchasing dealer’s responsibility to know what type of units they can and cannot title or register within their state. If a
dealer purchases a vehicle they are not able to title or register in their state, NPA will not allow the dealer to return the
vehicle.
BOS - Bill of Sale; usually for units in a non-title state
MSO - Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin; unit has never been title
TCMG - Title Coming; this may take up to 8 weeks to be received
Legal Docs - NPA has the legal documentation to apply for a title, but no physical title. Buyer is responsible for applying
for title TMU - True Miles Unknown
7,500 Mile Rule - CA dealers cannot register a unit titled in another state with less than 7,500 miles on it

Consignments and Payoffs


Titles
Titles and consignment forms must be received at the auction facility prior to auction day. Once consignments have been
submitted online, it is best to send titles in a trackable form of mail to the auction location you are sending the vehicle to.
There is a $20 Late Title Fee if title is not received by the auction day. Private party consignments are accepted if the title
is in the seller’s name.

Uploading Consignment Vehicles


Upload vehicles online by entering the year, make, model and VIN of each vehicle you are sending to auction along with
the type of documents you possess for the vehicle and reserve amount. After submitting online
consignments, send the physical paperwork to the Consignment Admin at the NPA facility the vehicles are going to.

Reserve
The reserve is the minimum amount a unit can be sold for. There are three different types of reserves to choose from:
Close - Your vehicle will be sold if the high bid is within $200 of the reserve. Vehicles with a high bid within $1500 of re-
serve will go Subject To.
Firm - Your vehicle will be sold only if the high bid has met or exceeded your reserve. Vehicles with a high bid within
$1000 of reserve will go Subject To.
Average - This only applies when consigning multiple vehicles. Vehicles will be sold if the average sale price is greater
than average reserves of all offered vehicles.

Drop-offs
Motorcycles, ATV’s, PWC
• Atlanta, Dallas, & San Diego: Drop off by end of business day Wednesday
• Denver, Lakeland, & Sacramento/Portland: Drop off by end of business day Tuesday
• Cincinnati & Philadelphia : Drop off by end of business Monday

Boats & RV’s


• Atlanta, Dallas, & San Diego: Drop off by end of business day Monday
• Cincinnati, Denver, Lakeland, Philadelphia, & Sacramento/Portland: Drop off by end of business Friday

No Sale Policy
If your vehicle runs through 3 live sales and does not sell, the vehicle will automatically be redeemed for pick up and
all applicable fees will be due. In order for these vehicles to run through NPA again, the reserve must be adjusted so that
it is in line with the NPA value guide and will be re-consigned through the website again. All fees will start over from that
point as a new vehicle. NPA will not allow a vehicle to be re-consigned if the reserve is not lowered to current NPA value.

Payoffs: All payoffs are sent from NPA San Diego, Corporate Headquarters.
• Atlanta, Dallas, & San Diego auction payoffs are sent to dealers the Tuesday following the auction.
• Cincinnati & Philadelphia auction payoffs are sent to dealers the Friday following the auction.
• Denver, Lakeland & Sacramento payoffs are sent to dealers the Monday following the auction.
