Who this course is for

One format doesn't fit everyone. We built the course around three typical buying scenarios.

For yourself

Buying a car for myself

I want to understand the real price, costs after the auction, and how to avoid a problematic lot.

Business start

I want to earn on cars

I want to learn to size up a deal, find liquid cars, and know when not to buy.

Dealer

I already work with cars

I want more auctions, systematic sourcing, tools, templates, and a path to Partner access.

The costliest mistakes when buying at auction cost more than the training

This isn't theory. These are real losses we see in beginners every week.

  • Bought a car cheaper but ignored shipping, fees, port, repair and paperwork
  • Trusted the photos but didn't check VIN, history, seller and prior bids
  • Didn't understand the title and bought a car that's hard or impossible to register cleanly
  • Set the wrong max bid and burned the margin
  • Didn't grasp which states and auctions are friendlier for logistics
  • Bought a car with damage that looks light but is expensive to repair
  • Had no checklist and decided emotionally
  • Paid a broker without understanding exactly what they're paying for

This isn't just videos. It's a toolkit for a real purchase

You get a decision system, not lectures in a vacuum.

Video lessons

15–20 short practical videos you can rewatch at your own pace.

Auction database

Access to 20+ auctions across the US, Canada and Europe: Copart, IAAI, Manheim, eBay, AutoWarehouse, BCA, Copart DE and more.

Lot-selection checklists

What to verify before bidding: VIN, title, seller, damage, mileage, keys, run & drive, location, fees.

Title guide

Which documents you can consider, which to handle carefully, and which to skip without experience.

Full-cost calculator

Lot, auction fees, shipping, port, customs, taxes, repair, reserve, final price.

Risk filters

A list of red flags: flood damage, battery damage, severe geometry issues, dubious sellers, problematic titles.

Templates

Max bid sheet, lot checklist, three-car comparison, margin worksheet.

Support

By package: basic support or Pro escort.

20+ auctions and platforms

You're not limited to Copart alone

Most beginners only watch Copart or IAAI. The course teaches you to think wider: US, Canada, Europe, insurance auctions, dealer yards, wholesale sources and local platforms.

The full list unlocks after package purchase. We update sources for the current market.

The title decides whether the car is a good buy or a problem

The course has a dedicated module on titles, states and documents. It's one of the most critical economic factors.

Clean Title

Doesn't automatically mean an ideal car, but it's usually the simpler document for downstream registration.

Salvage Title

Can be repairable, but requires understanding the damage, state rules and future registration.

Rebuilt / Former Salvage

The car has already gone through restoration. You need the full history and quality of prior repair.

Certificate of Destruction / Junk / Parts Only

Highest risk for a beginner. Don't evaluate without understanding country, state, export and future registration.

You won't become an all-powerful expert after the course — but you will stop deciding blind

  • You know where to look
  • You know how to read a lot
  • You see title risks
  • You compute the full cost before bidding
  • You can compare 2–3 candidates
  • You know when not to buy
  • You can submit a bid request with a sensible max bid
  • You understand what the broker is paid for and what you can control yourself

How it works

Six steps from sign-up to a controlled first purchase.

  1. 1

    Pick a package

    Basic, Pro or Partner — depending on your goal and purchase volume.

  2. 2

    Get access to lessons and materials

    Dashboard, videos, checklists, templates, calculators.

  3. 3

    Complete the base modules before your first request

    Key lessons are flagged required. Without them, the bid request won't go out.

    Pick a car and compute the full cost

    The calculator includes lot, fees, shipping, port, customs, repair and reserve.

  5. 5

    Fill the checklist and set max bid

    Verify title, seller, VIN, damage, location.

  6. 6

    Submit the request / use support

    Basic in Basic, priority in Pro, dedicated manager in Partner.

  • We don't replace legal or customs advice
  • We don't claim every lot is buyable
  • We don't let beginners bid without understanding budget and risk

Frequently asked questions

One format doesn't fit everyone. We built the course around three typical buying scenarios.

  • Will I be able to buy a car myself after the course?

    Within Basic — yes, with our checklists and dashboard support.

  • Do I need automotive experience?

    No. The course starts from zero. What matters is that you understand the decision logic, not memorise jargon.

  • Is the course suitable for buying one car for myself?

    Yes. That's the most common Basic scenario.

  • Can I make money after the course?

    Earning on cars is systematic work: sourcing, verification, shipping, repair, sale. We provide the tools, but we don't promise profit.
