In Japan almost all used cars change hands on the the auction network in some way or another. Cars are seldom sold privately, they are generally traded in when buying new cars or sold to used car buying companies like Gulliver a major chain company doing this work. Who in turn sell the cars on the auction network.
System of auto auctions:
In Japan auctions are high-tech business and around 100,000 cars are put
up for sale every week. Each cars has an extensive inspection and is graded
before being auctioned. These inspections are very strict in my opinion
and when you see the cars in person they are in better condition than you
expected.
Membership of auto auctions:
In Japan auction centres are restricted to those with membership, unlike
other countries where anbody can go to an auction and buy a car. We have
dealer membership to all major auction centres and can bid at them on your
behalf.
