Frequently asked questions
The site, the data on a lot page and how to reach us.
About the site
Where do the cars come from?
From the Copart and IAAI auctions in the US and Canada.
Is BidPier free to use?
Yes. Searching, browsing the catalog and opening a lot with its photos and history cost nothing and need no account.
Can I buy a car through BidPier?
No. We publish auction records only. To bid, use a licensed broker or the auction itself.
Why is my car on the site?
Every vehicle sold at Copart or IAAI is listed with photos by the auction. We show those public records, like many other history sites.
Lot pages
What does a lot page show?
All auction photos, year, make, model, engine, transmission, drive and fuel, odometer, damage, condition and keys, the auction, yard location, sale date and bids, and every earlier sale of the same VIN.
Is the information reliable?
It comes from the auction listings and is shown as received. Damage and condition are what the auction reported, so a lot is always worth a closer look before you bid.
