How do Japanese auction inspection sheets work?
Japanese auction inspection sheets (auction sheets) are standardized condition reports completed by auction house inspectors. They include a diagram of the vehicle with coded marks indicating dents, scratches, rust, and paintwork, interior and exterior grade scores, odometer reading, key count, and notes on mechanical findings. Learning to read common codes (A=scratch, U=dent, W=wave, C=crack, X=needs replacement, XX=severe damage) helps you assess bids accurately.

Before making promises about collection, coordinate the inspection, paperwork, seller release and transport. Give each part of the purchase its own check.
