🎯 The Game
🏢 IAAI 🔨 Copart 📈 Edge Pipeline 🚙 CarsForSale 🏪 OVE
🏢 IAAI — Insurance Auto Auctions

IAAI (Insurance Auto Auctions) is one of the largest salvage auto auctions in the world. Insurance companies and fleet operators sell damaged and total-loss vehicles here. Great for finding affordable project cars and parts vehicles.

💡 Quick Tip
IAAI specializes in insurance total-loss vehicles. These often need more repair work but can be had at deep discounts.
🔐 Login
iaai.com → Member Login Open IAAI →
Credentials in Tools & Credentials vault.
🎯 Bidding Strategy
Check the Run & Drive status — Vehicles that start and drive are worth significantly more. Don't assume it runs.
Review the damage photos carefully — IAAI provides detailed photos. Check frame, undercarriage, and engine bay photos.
Factor in buyer's fee — IAAI charges a buyer's fee on top of your winning bid (typically $300-500).
Get a vehicle history report — Run Carfax/AutoCheck to check for prior damage, title brand history, and odometer readings.
🔨 Copart — Salvage Auctions

Copart is the other major salvage auction platform. Like IAAI, they sell insurance total-loss and recovered theft vehicles. Copart often has larger inventory and different geographic coverage.

💡 Quick Tip
Copart and IAAI often have the same vehicles listed on both — check both to compare fees and bid activity.
🔐 Login
copart.com → Login Open Copart →
Credentials in Tools & Credentials vault.
🎯 How Salvage Auctions Work
Title Status — Check if it's a Clean, Salvage, or Rebuilt title. This dramatically affects value and resale options.
Conditional Sale vs Run & Drive — "Conditional" means it passed a basic inspection but may have issues. "Run & Drive" means it starts and moves under its own power.
Buyer's Fees — Copart charges a buyer's fee based on final bid amount. Budget 10-15% above your max bid for total cost (fees + transport + taxes).
Payment Window — Winning bidders have 3 business days to pay. Have funding ready before bidding.
📈 Edge Pipeline

Edge Pipeline is a dealer-to-dealer wholesale platform. It connects dealers for cross-lot inventory transfers — you can source vehicles from other dealers without bidding at salvage auctions.

💡 Quick Tip
Edge Pipeline is cleaner than salvage auctions — these are typically clean-title dealer trades with known history.
🔐 Login
edgepipeline.com → Login Open Edge Pipeline →
Credentials in Tools & Credentials vault.
🎯 How to Source Deals
Browse dealer inventory — Search by make, model, year, mileage. Other dealers list vehicles they want to wholesale.
Make offers directly — Unlike auctions, you negotiate directly with the listing dealer. No bidding wars.
Clean titles — Most Edge Pipeline vehicles have clean titles and full service history — lower risk than salvage.
Transportation — Coordinate transport through the platform or arrange your own pickup from the selling dealer lot.
🚙 CarsForSale — Dealer Listings

CarsForSale is a dealer-grade vehicle listing platform — it puts your vehicles in front of millions of buyers searching for used cars online. As a co-op member under Byrd Dawgs Automotive Group, you get dealer-tier listings without your own license.

💰 Cost Context
~$100/month — covered by Byrd Dawgs dealer operations. Your profit split accounts for this.

🏪 OVE — Dealer Wholesale Marketplace

OVE is a dealer-to-dealer wholesale marketplace powered by ADESA and Carvana. It's a clean-title, dealer-only platform where licensed dealers buy and sell vehicles directly. No salvage titles — these are clean, ready-to-resell vehicles.

💡 Quick Tip
OVE focuses on clean-title dealer trades with known history. Lower risk than salvage auctions — but prices reflect that.
🔐 Login
ove.com → Dealer Login Open OVE →
Credentials in Tools & Credentials vault.
🎯 How OVE Works
Dealer-Only Access — You need a dealer license to buy on OVE. Byrd Dawgs co-op provides access through our dealer account.
Online Bidding — Browse inventory, place bids, and win entirely online. No physical auction attendance needed.
Clean Titles Only — All vehicles have clean titles. Much lower risk than IAAI/Copart salvage buys.
💰 Buyer's Fees & Transport
Buyer's Fee — OVE charges a buyer's fee based on purchase price (typically $200-400). Budget this into your max bid.
Transport Options — OVE offers integrated shipping. Get quotes at checkout or arrange your own transport.
Payment Terms — Payment due within 2-3 business days. Wire transfer or financed through OVE's lending partners.
🎯 OVE Bidding Strategy
Check the condition报告 — OVE provides detailed condition reports. Review them carefully — they're more detailed than most auctions.
Compare to Edge Pipeline — Both are dealer wholesale. Check both for the same vehicle — prices and fees may differ.
Factor in transport — OVE vehicles may be at different yards. Get shipping quotes before bidding to avoid surprises.
Clean titles = higher floors — OVE prices are higher than salvage because all vehicles have clean titles. Don't expect deep discounts.
