AUTO POUND - SOUTH

• Sellers may remove reserve prices at any time during the bidding process. All bids are binding and placed with the intent to purchase.
• No warranties are given or implied at any time for any reason.
• ALL SALES ARE FINAL. ALL VEHICLES ARE SOLD AS-IS. NO REFUNDS.
• Full payment for all vehicles must be completed online within 24 hours to receive the required gate code(s) for pickup. No exceptions.
• Buyers who do not submit full payment within 24 hours will be charged a $50 remediation fee and granted an additional 48 hours to pay the full balance plus the fee. Failure to do so results in an automatic bidding ban.
• ACH payments take 3-5 business days to clear, and in some cases 7+ business days. Gate codes are released only after payment has fully cleared. If this timing conflicts with the pickup window, contact Autura support to make arrangements.
• Debit/credit card payments incur a 3% processing fee; gate codes are released immediately upon payment.
• Please read all auction terms and conditions before bidding.

Title Status: All vehicles are sold with a junk title unless a salvage title is requested. A $50 junk title fee will be applied to every vehicle.

Salvage Title Requests (Effective January 7, 2026):

• To be eligible for a salvage title, a vehicle must receive a minimum winning bid of $1,000.00. Vehicles sold for less than $1,000.00 are not eligible for a salvage title and will be issued a junk certificate.
• If you request a salvage title for an eligible vehicle, an additional $300 salvage title processing fee will be added to your total.
• Important: If you wish to apply for a salvage title, your request must be submitted within one (1) hour after the auction ends. Requests received after the one-hour deadline cannot be processed, and a junk title will be applied for instead.
• To request either vehicle pickup with a junk title or a salvage title, please complete the Salvage Title Request Form: https://autura.typeform.com/salvage-chicago

Salvage Title Processing:

• The City of Chicago salvage title process may take up to six (6) months before the vehicle is available for pickup.
• Buyers are not required to pay the remaining vehicle balance until the salvage title has been issued and the vehicle is ready for pickup.
