Due to the increased number of Dishonored Cheques (DUD) insurance companies do not accept personal cheques for the payment of salvaged vehicles. All payments are to be made on cash basis, through a wire transfer or by a banker’s draft or any other means, as may be specified by the insurance company.
Ezzybid.com is not provided with a damage report and/or full description of vehicles by the Insurance Company. However, very brief descriptions for Loss Type and Damage Type are normally offered under the Vehicle Description section of each listing.
Ezzybid.com does not have information on how damage occurred, how long a vehicle has been sitting in its current condition, and if repairs have been done. The Insurance Company does not provide us with damage reports and/or full descriptions and histories of their vehicles. Brief descriptions for Loss Type and Damage Type may be offered under the Vehicle Description section of each listing. All vehicles are sold “as-is” “where-is” basis.
Loose parts can be lost/misplaced/detached at location or garage where the vehicle is parked or during towing from accident scene to repair garage. Ezzybid.com does not guarantee the availability of loose parts even if they are shown in the photographs.
All vehicles displayed on our website are located at repair garages and are neither available for nor subject to inspection nor testing. The repair garage will let us know if the item runs or not, (if it does) we include this information in the listing.
All vehicles displayed on our website are sold “as-is”, therefore there is no remedy. We understand undercarriage and other latent defects are not visible in the photographs. Users must understand that salvage vehicles may have latent defects (e.g. undercarriage damage, under hood damage, etc.). The Insurance Company or the repair garage does not provide Ezzybid.com with damage reports and/or full descriptions and histories of vehicles. All information provided by the Insurance Company is displayed on the site.
Vehicles might have been previously repaired. EZZYBID.com is NOT aware of any such previous repairs performed, and CANNOT comment on the craftsmanship of previous repairs performed on any vehicle. Users are thus advised to place their offers with care!
EZZYBID.com does not repair vehicles and, for legal reasons, does not provide repair estimates. Prices for new parts can be obtained from a local authorized dealers (of your vehicle make). Prices for used parts can be obtained from a local used spare parts market.
Upon full payment of the winning bid amount, the insurance company will provide the vehicle transfer ownership documents for the user.
A salvage vehicle can NOT be driven legally on the roads until it is repaired. Typically, you first have the vehicle towed. Next, the vehicle undergoes the “reconstruction” process per DVLA guidelines. Finally, once the “reconstruction” process is complete, you can register and insure the vehicle to be driven on the roads.
