No hidden markups — see exactly what you pay

You pay the real hammer price plus our Commission — a flat ¥35,000 up to ¥1,000,000, then 3.5% above that,
and one clear Export Package. Everything is calculated in Japanese yen. Use the calculator to estimate your cost to your port.

Our commission

3.5% of the final hammer price

Minimum ¥35,000 — so any car under ¥1,000,000 is charged the ¥35,000 minimum.

Example hammer priceCommission
¥300,000¥35,000 (minimum)
¥800,000¥35,000 (minimum)
¥1,000,000¥35,000
¥2,000,000¥70,000
¥3,000,000¥105,000

Export Package

¥65,000

One package to get your car from the auction onto the ship. It covers:

Auction house fee
Negotiation lots carry an extra charge.
Inland transportation
Covers up to ¥10,000 — long-distance excess is billed separately.
Export fee
Inspection fees are charged separately, according to each destination country's regulations.
If a car fails inspection, repair costs plus a 10% service fee will be charged separately — so if your country requires a pre-shipment inspection, choose a car in good condition.

Landed-Cost Calculator

Enter a hammer price and your destination to see the full cost to your port.

e.g. Small = kei / compact · Medium = sedan · Large = van / SUV / pickup

All amounts are in JPY. Freight (country × size) and inspection (by country) come from back-office masters. We don't calculate your country's import tax — the USD figure is an indicative reference only.
