What the Vancouver market looks like
Strong money for AWD wagons, hybrids and clean imports. Rust-free coastal cars attract bidders from the Prairies, so expect out-of-region dealer interest.
How bidding works
Every bid is public
Amount, bidder type and timestamp. Dealers bid under their business name.
Reserve is disclosed
You always know whether the seller's floor has been cleared — before you bid.
Fixed closing time
No endless haggling. The clock runs out and the high bid wins.
Direct handover
Win above reserve and you get the seller's details immediately.
Buying in British Columbia: Transfers in British Columbia go through an Autoplan broker, where ICBC handles registration and insurance together. Both parties complete the transfer/tax form, and the buyer pays provincial sales tax at the counter on private sales — the rate steps up on higher-value vehicles.
