One of the most well-known online auctions for buying cars from America is IAAI, or as it's sometimes called, Insurance. Like Copart or Manheim, it attracts our company Boss Auto with its simple and understandable interface, availability of detailed information about cars, the opportunity to purchase cars and other vehicles at a good price.
There are several differences IAAI auction from the others - and we will tell you about them further. These differences make it clear why we work with several auctions besides Copart. And to put it briefly, each specific auction fits certain client requests.
What is IAAI Auction
One of the largest in America, this IAAI auction is presented in several states. Hundreds of wrecked and non-wrecked cars are available on the platforms, just like on other online resources.
But let's focus on the differences:
Cars come to the insurance platforms from insurance companies - which means that wrecked cars are not artificially improved to sell at a higher price. Yes, in America, such a scenario is very rare, but possible - nobody is perfect, so Boss Auto mainly buys cars from insurance companies and checks the technical condition of vehicles.
When a car arrives at the insurance auction platform from an insurance company, it means that it was handed over as it was at the time of being surrendered by the owner. The insurance company has no interest in inflating the price, unlike a dealer or private seller. This is an important difference that favors the insurance auction.
More photos - not of the best quality, true, but there are a lot of them. Since cars come to IAAI from insurance companies, they are photographed from all sides and damages are documented in detail. Yes, the quality sometimes leaves something to be desired, but it still helps to thoroughly check the damages.
It's better not to decline - if you decide to buy a car at the insurance auction, don't delay payment and decline at the last moment. Why? It ruins the rating of managers and the company, and it's also fraught with a penalty. And if with Copart the amount is fixed, at the insurance auction in Russian, you pay 1% of the cost for each day the car is idle. So, even if you buy it but don't rush to pick up the car, you still pay a fine.
Of course, this doesn't threaten you - if you turn to us, we will buy the car and pick it up on time. But if you're curious about what the company risks when a person hesitates or procrastinates, this is a decent fine. The worst thing for the client is losing money that was part of the car budget and missing out on a good car option.
Choosing a Car on IAAI in Russian and More
Selecting a car from America for delivery to Kazakhstan by Boss Auto happens as follows:
You voice your preferences regarding the car and budget. Our task is to select options and provide several choices. Consulting with a manager is always a good choice: they will tell you about the market in general, guide you on delivery costs, and find a car according to your request.
During our collaboration, you may discover that you want a different car within your budget and specifications. Perhaps we will offer options you didn't know or didn't think about - after all, the American market is significantly different from ours.
Remember that cars from America are not only about price but also about higher equipment class, lower mileage, and more options.
When you have voiced the desired make and model, we search online for cars on the IAAI auction in Russian. We send them for evaluation, you agree on the ones you like, or we continue the search.
We check the history, order a Carfax, check the wrecked car for all possible parameters. The manager will determine which damages are not critical and do not require serious repair, and which ones make the car unsalable, despite seeming minor damage.
The next stage after we find the car is to buy it. On the day of the auction, the manager is in touch with you and does everything to acquire the car for us. If the bid exceeds reasonable limits, it's not a problem, we'll find another option. You shouldn't overpay - cost-effectiveness is one of the main advantages of cars from the USA.
After purchase, the lengthy stage of delivery to Kazakhstan begins. Our services include car insurance and safe delivery, which takes about 1.5 months. You are calm - the car is already yours, and you just need to wait for it to arrive. During transportation by sea, the car is insured, and upon arrival on land, it is delivered by our car carriers - without third parties.
Upon arrival, the car is subject to customs clearance, registration, and sent for repair. Restoring parts and repairs, polishing, and other procedures, certification, registration - this should be entrusted to us. You just need to come to the site or office to pick up the car and drive home - this is the happy ending of your story.
What cars can be purchased on IAAI?
In most cases, we are talking about cars that are abundant in America and scarce in Kazakhstan at an affordable price. Like other top US auctions, IAAI is advantageous because you can thoroughly inspect the car, buy a vehicle with minor damage, avoid paying a lot for customs clearance, and save up to 30% of the car's cost.
The selection in America is attractive due to the variety of models - for example, economical and convenient models like Ford Fusion, Fiesta, or large vehicles like Ford F150. Clients often turn to buy Jeep models.
