1. Who can bid
Anyone aged 18 or over with a confirmed account (email confirmed, mobile number and full address added) can bid. Staff accounts of FINCORP GESTION SA cannot bid. We never bid on our own cars and do not allow anyone to bid on our behalf to push the price up.
2. Maximum bids
You enter the most you are willing to pay (your maximum bid). The system bids for you automatically, one increment at a time, only as far as needed to keep you in the lead. Your maximum is private — other bidders and our staff cannot see it. If two bidders enter the same maximum, the earlier bid wins.
3. Bid increments
The next bid must be at least the current price plus the increment shown on the “How it works” page. The minimum next bid is always shown next to the bid box.
4. Bids are binding
Every bid is a binding offer to buy the car at that price if you win. Please read the listing, the known issues and the history report before bidding. If you make an obvious typing mistake (for example an extra zero), contact us immediately at 0741234567 — we will review it. Your statutory right of withdrawal as a consumer is not affected.
5. Anti-sniping
A bid in the last 2 minutes extends the auction by 2 minutes from the time of that bid. The auction only ends when nobody has bid for 2 full minutes. All times are shown in German time (CET/CEST).
6. Reserve price
Some cars have a confidential minimum price (reserve). The listing shows whether it has been met. If the auction ends below the reserve, no sale takes place; we may contact the highest bidder with an offer.
7. Card hold
Before your first bid on a car we may place a temporary hold of 500 € on your debit or credit card. It is not a charge. It is released automatically if you do not win; if you win, it counts towards your invoice.
8. After the auction
The highest bidder receives an email, and we confirm the sale and send the invoice, usually within one working day. Payment is due within 3 working days. Delivery or collection is arranged after payment.
9. Technical problems
If a technical fault on our side affects an auction (for example the site is unavailable in the final minutes), we may extend, restart or cancel the auction. We are not responsible for problems with your own device or internet connection.
10. Misuse
We may suspend accounts that give false details, bid without intending to buy, use several accounts or try to manipulate an auction. Bids from suspended accounts can be removed.
